DESCRIPTION provided by applicant For this Phase II STTR proposal the investigators plan to develop and commercialize the radiofrequency RF coil technology to make T body MRI possible and to translate this new technology to vastly improve T clinical MRI as well In the Phase I project leading to this proposal all specific aims were accomplished to demonstrate the feasibility of safely an ...

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 ...

Historically, aircraft engines have featured relatively simple axisymmetric exhaust shapes with several moving parts; however, future engine exhaust systems are expected feature compact, sinuous ducts with complex non-axisymmetric shapes, fixed exit areas, thrust vectoring etc., constructed with a minimum number of moving parts. Their exhaust plumes are currently not well understood; however, LES ...

We propose to develop a multi-functional coating technology using a three-component nanocomposites to achieve excellent syperhydrophobicity, anti-icing, enhanced track-resistance, and high dielectric breakdown strenght. The coating will be compatible with current Navy existing VLF device materials and be ease of applications in outdoor field, and be long lasting requiring infrequent applications.

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 ...

Advanced effective Micro-glider development will be conceived under this Phase I effort.

In this project, we will develop innovative and advanced display and processing techniques, and innovatively combine existing algorithms, software, and systems, to create a Detection Avoidance System for Submarines (DASS) that assists the submarine operator, planner, and commanding officer (CO) in minimizing the probability that a submarine penetrating into and operating within an A2/AD zone will ...

DESCRIPTION provided by applicant Lipella Pharmaceuticals Inc Pittsburgh PA is a clinical stage pharmaceutical company specializing in intravesical therapies for urinary bladder dysfunctions Lipella is submitting a research proposal to the Small Business Technology Transfer program titled andquot Developing Intravesical Liposomes for Interstitial Cystitisandquot The project proposes to e ...

ABSTRACT: The innovation proposed is a computationally-tractable, physics-based, portable turbulent combustion modeling strategy for application to a wide range of Air Force aero-propulsive systems, including augmentors, liquid rockets and scramjets. This modeling strategy will be implemented within an Application Programming Interface (API) library suitable for easy integration within Air Force ...

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 ...
