Twinleaf LLC and Princeton University propose an STTR Phase II research and development program to study, build, and deliver a compact magnetometer featuring both vector and scalar operating modes. The vector magnetometer design focuses on unprecedented high vector sensor performance at the low 0.001 Hz frequency range, which is a key metric for Navy applications such as harbor monitoring.

DESCRIPTION provided by applicant B cell lymphoma is cancer of B lymphocytes and accounts for more than deaths in the U S each year While many patients respond to currently available therapy there is a high rate of cancer relapse and inability for the patients o tolerate chemotherapy Thus there is a significant need to make available to these patients newer therapies that are more e ...

DESCRIPTION provided by applicant Perioperative hemorrhage remains the major complication of transurethral and open prostatic surgical procedures Significant blood loss from these procedures causes delayed healing and longer hospitalization which significantly increases the cost of patient care Moreover prolonged urethral catheterization due to significant post operative hematuria is one of ...

ABSTRACT: Global Engineering and Materials, Inc. (GEM) along with its team member Columbia University propose to develop a simulation tool for modeling mixing process of multi-particle composite systems and generating the ultimate microstructure. A combined theoretical, numerical, and experimental approach will be developed to create a high fidelity software product with a reduced order modeling ...

Directed plasma discharge using Knite Inc.s Kinetic Spark Ignition (KSI) hardware is proposed as a means to quell augmentor screech tone. Contrary to typical plasma ignitors, where plasma discharge is between anode and cathode, the KSI can discharge plasma into the flow in a reproducible manner. This controllability was used successfully on projects to improve performance of igniters and is also k ...

To address the Navy"s need for a common, scalable, platform for multi-modal 1pA level current sensing for Electrocardiogram (ECG), Electroencephalogram (EEG), and Electrodermal Response (EDR) to be fielded as a miniature wearable device with non-contact electrodes, Sentient and the State University of New York (SUNY) propose to develop the Bioelectronic Fusion Sensor System (BioFuSenS) that will a ...

DESCRIPTION provided by applicant APDM is a young company focused on developing and commercializing professional systems using wearable inertial sensors for monitoring of human movement and movement disorders In Phase I we developed the novel Instrumented Stand and Walk test ISAW using APDMandapos s proprietary Opal movement monitors and Mobility Lab system We validated the ISAW by demon ...

DESCRIPTION provided by applicant The worldwide health problem created by malaria has been made more difficult by the spread of drug resistant parasites We have developed an orally available and inexpensive class of novel drugs that act against both chloroquine resistant and chloroquine sensitive malaria This project carries on preclinical development of a drug candidate that has been select ...

DESCRIPTION provided by applicant Traumatic brain injury TBI is an acquired neurological disorder that can cause long lasting disability with limited treatment options Therefore preventative strategies must be emphasized in high risk activities to reduce the individual and societal burden of this pervasive injury Bicycle activities account for of all sports related TBI with ...

With the Navy proceeding on its goal of an all electric ship, innovative R&D methodology is needed to model and validate high rate, intermittent energy storage and control architectures that can rapidly accept high intermittent currents to load-level prime movers during the pulsed-power duty cycle. This proposal offers a solution to mitigate the intermittent disturbances to the ships distribution ...
