Impact of Hypersonic Flight Environment on Electro-Optic/Infrared (EO/IR) Sensors
SBC: Analysis and Applications Associates, Inc. Topic: AF15AT40EO/IR sensors can provide high spatial resolution images using multiple frequency bands ranging from the visible to mid-wave IR. EO/IR sensors have been very successful for terrain imaging from subsonic aircraft and from satellites. Imaging using these platforms has been studied extensively. EO/IR sensors can provide high spatial resolution images using multiple frequency bands ranging from the v ...

DREAMIT- Design, Reconfigure and Evaluate Autonomous Models in Training
SBC: TIER 1 PERFORMANCE SOLUTIONS LLC Topic: AF15AT14Our Phase I work focused on improving modeling and simulations so that the impact of autonomous systems in the battlespace could be better understood. As we have trained our attention on Phase II, it has become increasingly clear that the work we are doing to improve the modeling and simulation of autonomous systems also provides significant leverage for the development of the intelligent behavior ...

Reverberation Mitigation of Speech
SBC: MINERVA SYSTEMS & TECHNOLOGIES LLC Topic: AF15AT17Automatic speech recognition (ASR) technology is in wide use today and has been successfully integrated into a number of applications. Although there are also many potential applications for automatic speaker identification (SID), SID accuracy rates are generally not sufficient for widespread use in practical applications. For high accuracy ASR and SID, the microphone must be located near the talk ...

Measurement and Modeling of Surface Coking in Fuel-Film Cooled Liquid Rocket Engines
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: AF15AT21Designing an efficient and effective film cooling system to protect critical components of modern rocket engines requires a significant number of problems and challenges to be addressed. Complicating the already difficult hydrodynamic challenges, thermal and/or catalytic cracking of hydrocarbon fuels is always accompanied with coke formation. Coke deposits on combustor and nozzle walls reduce heat ...

Development of Adaptive Closure Models for Large Eddy Simulations of Lean Blow-Out Conditions
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: AF16AT14The objective of the proposed Phase II effort is to establish fundamental understanding of combustion-physical mechanisms leading to blowout, the critical evaluation of model limitations in predicting these blowout processes and the development of an improved combustion model to enable the prediction of lean blowout (LBO) in swirl-stabilized combustors. For this, high-resolution numerical simulati ...

Open Standard for Display Agnostic 3D Streaming (DA3DS)
SBC: Third Dimension Technologies LLC Topic: AF16AT07The Air Force has identified a need for a display agnostic common streaming model for 3D data. Third Dimension Technologies (TDT) and Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have formed a consortium to define a 3D streaming model based on open standards for Display Agnostic 3D Streaming (DA3DS). Two factors are driving this need. The first is the dramatic increase in the collection, storage and trans ...

Fast Optical Limiters (OL) with Enhanced Dynamic Range
SBC: Aegis Technologies Group, LLC, The Topic: AF17AT029Current fielded sensor protection is limited to fixed wavelength filters. Broadband filters designed to circumvent multi-wavelength laser threats are plagued by low transmittance, which degrades the sensitivity and performance of the sensor. Future warfighter threats include frequency agile lasers and thus have the potential of defeating fixed filters. Self-activating (passive) devices where prote ...

Flexible Broad-band Optical Device
SBC: OCEANIT LABORATORIES INC Topic: AF17AT010Oceanit proposes to first is to use radiative transfer techniques pioneered for astrophysics, instead of Monte Carlo simulation. In particular, we used a variant of the Bohm-Vitense method, which expresses the solution as a weighted sum of basis functions, allowing us to convert the radiative transfer equation into a set of linear equations that we can solve with standard linear algebra methods. S ...
