DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Over 5 million word recognition tests are administered annually by audiologists in the United States with an associated cost of more then $100 million. These tests are currently performed manually by high-trained audiologists. This application describes a Phase I development of an automated clinical speech recognition test using clinical test recordings and an ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal is to complete the feasibility prototype of an adjustable systemic-pulmonary artery (SPA) shunt. Children with single ventricle physiology (SVP) and reduced pulmonary blood flow (PBF) are palliated with an SPA shunt until approximately 6 months of age. Current shunts are made from simple (unadjustable) polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) vascular gr ...

The goal of this effort is to grow ZnO-GaN hybrid spin LED structures. Two different spin LED structures will be fabricated. Cermet, Inc and Georgia Institute of Technology will grow oxide on nitride and nitride on oxide LED structures through MOCVD. Thequality of the grown structures will be characterized by X-ray, PL, CL and DLTS. Electrical and magnetic properties will be investigated. Based on ...

The goal of this effort is to grow transition metal doped ZnO on native substrates, characterize the films, and design a prototype spin FET based on ZnO. The main objective of phase I will be to demonstrate the growth of high quality homoepitaxial thisfilms of transition metal doped ZnO on ZNO using Cermet's MOCVD technology and in-house fabricated substrates. The quality of the films will be ana ...

This proposal presents the background and work necessary to adapt methodologies for the design of complex systems developed at the Aerospace Systems Design Laboratory (ASDL) at Georgia Tech under the sponsorship of the Office of Naval Research and GlobalTechnology Connection(GTC)/Georgia Tech SBIR , in support of their Affordability Measurement and Prediction methods initiative, to the areas of na ...

Vibration-Induced Droplet Atomization, or VIDA, is a thin-film spray cooling technology developed at Georgia Tech with tremendous potential for thermal management applications in future Navy ship power electronic systems. The patented VIDA technique uses avibrating piezo driver in a self-contained cell to deliver a highly controllable, rapid-response, on-demand aerosol-sized water spray to hot ele ...

MicroCoating Technologies, Inc. (MCT), in collaboration with the Georgia Institute of Technology and Clemson University, proposes the development of a novel fuel atomization method and advanced numerical simulation tools for supercritical gas turbinecombustion systems. The project is designed to accelerate the understanding and commercialization of transcritical and supercritical fuel atomizatio ...

In recent years, many military and commercial applications have turned to power electronics to run a variety of systems, such as electric launching platforms, electric warships, and electric/hybrid vehicles, efficiently, quietly, cheaply, and precisely.Power capacitors (also known as supercapacitors or ultracapacitors) have gained substantial attention for these applications since they offer outst ...
