Additive Manufacturing and Thin Film Coating Development for Lightweight Directed Energy Reflective Optics
SBC: OPTIMAX SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: MDA13T009Optimax Systems, Inc. and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) propose a collaborative effort, led by Optimax, with two focus areas. Optimax will focus on thin film coating development for optical components to: increase laser damage threshold of optics used in high energy laser systems, investigate methods for laser hardening of sensors, and model and predict the distortion of lightweigh ...

Data Driven Intent Recognition Framework
SBC: OTHER LAB, INC. Topic: NSF13599A critical aspect of exoskeleton control that has to date introduced a performance limitation is the ability of the exoskeleton to recognize the intent of the operator so it can apply assistance to their desired motion. This intent recognition effort is typically solved using ad-hoc methods where subject matter experts make design decisions and tune transitions to identify intended maneuvers as re ...

Decision Making under Uncertainty
SBC: GCAS, Inc. Topic: MDA13T001Our proposed second order uncertainty (SOU) product is a decision making software solution that addresses the problem of providing accurate and precisely defined decision courses of action (COAs) of complex, time-constrained problems in a fraction of the time required by alternative methods striving to achieve the same level of precision. Complex decision situations can deal with large volume of ...

3D-Printed Lightweight Optics for Directed Energy Systems
SBC: OPTIMAX SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: MDA13T009It is proposed that using additive manufacturing to fabricate a lightweight optic would result in a weight reduction of the optical system, since 3D-printing provides superior flexibility in the geometric design of the lightweight optic. In addition, the conventional approach to lightweight an optic requires machining of mechanically-hard optical substrates such as SiC, which is time-intensive an ...

Human Performance Optimization
SBC: HVMN Inc. Topic: SOCOM17C001During altitude-induced hypoxia, operator cognitive and physical capacity degrades, compromising individual and team performance. Cognitive degradation is linked to falling brain energy levels, increased reliance on anaerobic energy production and lactate accumulation. Ketones are the evolutionary alternative substrate to glucose for brain metabolic requirements; previous studies demonstrated that ...

Human Performance Optimization
SBC: REJUVENATE BIO INC Topic: SOCOM17C001Special OperationsForces (SOF)are an integral aspect of the US military. SOF operators are among the most elite and highly qualified individuals in the U.S.military. As such, extraordinary physical and mental demands are placed upon them to excel in extreme environments for extended periods of time. This unrelenting cycle of combat deployments and intense pre-deployment training shortens the funct ...

Lightweight, Stable Optical Bench with Integrated Vibration Attenuation
SBC: SAN DIEGO COMPOSITES, INC. Topic: MDA13T007The goal of this program is to design a lightweight optical bench capable of remaining stable under temperature and moisture changes, while isolating the precision optical array from vibrations such as engine noise and air turbulence. By integrating a customizable periodic stack in the bench, vibrations are attenuated more effectively than commercially available mounts. Additionally, the periodic ...

Li Ion Base Battery Model
SBC: Quallion LLC Topic: MDA05T014We will develop a life model for a battery consisting of twenty-four 15 Ah cells connected in a mixed series and parallel configuration. The battery life model will be used to provide high fidelity predictions of the charge and discharge performance of each individual cell in a battery over an extended battery life time. Testing will account for variables such as non-uniform cell temperatures, unb ...
