Free-Flying Unmanned Robotic Spacecraft for Asteroid Resource Prospecting and Characterization
SBC: Honeybee Robotics, Ltd. Topic: T402In Phase 2 we will develop a fully integrated, autonomous free-flying robotic system based on a commercial SkyJib quadcopter, and demonstrate flying straight and level to a target location, acquisition of rock and regolith samples, and return to the point of origin. The work plan for Phase 2 is as follows: 1. Completion of the Guidance, Navigation, Control, Vision, and Sample Acquisition subsyste ...

Li Metal Protection for High Energy Space Batteries
SBC: NOHMS TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: Z102NOHMs propose to develop, demonstrate, and deliver high energy, lightweight, safe lithium sulfur (Li-S) batteries for use in space applications. During the Phase II project, NOHMs Technologies pursue approaches for enhancing energy density, safety, and manufacturability of larger-format pouch cells based on the most promising electrode and electrolyte compositions identified in Phase 1. We will de ...

Hydrogen Wave Heater for Nuclear Thermal Propulsion Component Testing
SBC: ACENT LABORATORIES LLC Topic: H204NASA has identified Nuclear Thermal Propulsion (NTP) as an approach that can provide the fastest trip times to Mars and as the preferred concept for human space travel. In order to perform component testing in support of NTP engine development, an efficient means for delivering high-flowrate, high-temperature hydrogen is required. Non-nuclear generation of the desired hydrogen flowrates and temper ...

Modular Addressable Research Irradiator using Flat Panel X-ray Sources
SBC: STELLARRAY INC Topic: 02b"The National Academy of Sciences issued a report in February 2008 detailing isotope replacement priorities in the interests of national security [National Research Council, 2008] . 137Cs used in “self-contained” irradiators was identified as the single most dangerous isotope in the inventory, owing to its long half life 30+ years) and production as cesium chloride salt, which me ...

Transmission Incipient Detection & Fault Location- TID&FL
SBC: UNDERGROUND SYSTEMS INC Topic: 22aIn order to optimize the operating efficiency of transmission systems utilities must be able to quickly restore service after a failure. Locating faults with current technologies can be a time consuming, skill and labor intensive process. Underground transmission systems are hidden from view and fault location can take sometimes days or weeks. Detecting and locating incipient faults prior to fail ...

Web-Based Computational Model Builder for Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation
SBC: KITWARE INC Topic: 19dAccording to the World Nuclear Association, the U.S. is the largest producer of nuclear power worldwide. In fact, the U.S. provides over 30 percent of the worlds nuclear generation of electricity. Although few new reactors have been built in the past 30 years, the association anticipates that four to six reactors may be built by 2020. The first of the reactors will be built in response to 16 licen ...

An Additive Manufacturing Technology for the Fabrication and Characterization of Nuclear Reactor Fuel
SBC: FREE FORM FIBERS L.L.C. Topic: 19bPhase I of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project was conducted under Department of Energy's (DOE) Advanced Technologies for Nuclear Energy (NE) topic 19(b), entitled Advanced Technologies for the Fabrication, Characterization of Nuclear Reactor Fuel. Phase II preserves the two-pronged vision and goals outlined in Phase I. First, this project seeks to provide a technological a ...

High Temperature Venus Drill and Sample Delivery System
SBC: Honeybee Robotics, Ltd. Topic: S404Under Phase 1, we investigated HT Drill, HT Trencher, and Pneumatic Sample Delivery. We found that HT Trencher and Blower-based pneumatic system won't be feasible or carried high risk associated with development of HT cutter materials. Rotary drill also did not penetrate hard rocks. For Phase 2, we propose HT Rotary-Percussive drill and 'suction' based pneumatic sample delivery. Honeybee is also ...

Pyramid Comet Sampler
SBC: Honeybee Robotics, Ltd. Topic: S402During Phase 1, we investigated a number of blade designs for 2, 3, and 4 blade sampler geometries. We found that blades with small apex angles can penetrate harder formations with much lower energies. We propose to develop a 3 or 4 blade design for sampling much harder (4 MPa and more) material. During Phase 2 we will initially perform more extensive blade testing to determine optimum design, w ...
