CSAR-X Digital Visionic System
SBC: Sage Technologies, Ltd. Topic: AF071028The proposed system is a wide field of view helmet mounted system that will incorporate short wave infrared (SWIR) camera technology with dual imaging lenses placed just above the operator’s eyes, and fused with a thermal long wave infrared sensor (LWIR). The Sage Team will take a component approach (sensor, processor, and display) that offers the best leverage of commercial technology. The Sage ...

Advanced NDE for SiC Optics Using Micromachined High Frequency Phased Array Ultrasound
SBC: TRS CERAMICS, INC. Topic: AF071142TRS is pleased to propose an in-situ NDE imaging tool for SiC mirror surface damage (SD), sub-surface damage (SSD) and trapped internal stress detection using piezo-composite based micromachined ultrasound transducer (PCMUT) phased array technology. PCMUT technology has been developed at TRS to fabricate high frequency ultrasound transducers with broad bandwidth and high sensitivity. Phased array ...

Turbopump Cavitation Tools
SBC: COMBUSTION RESEARCH & FLOW TECHNOLOGY INC Topic: AF071204Next generation liquid rocket systems envision novel designs for turbopumps that can operate at high suction speeds (i.e. low inlet pressures), and can be throttled over a wide range of low, off-design flow conditions. This is an extremely demanding flow regime where performance loss and damage from cavitation instabilities can be catastrophic since they can generate large amplitude pressure fluc ...

Remote-Controlled Improvised Explosive Device (RCIED) Detection Identification and Classification Algorithms (RADICAL)
SBC: NOKOMIS INC Topic: AF071219Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) continue to be the most significant threat affecting our troops today. Efficient electromagnetic capabilities that facilitate detection, identification, classification and geo-location of IEDs and associated subcomponents are critical. Nearly all IEDs utilized commercial electronic devices as triggering mechanisms. Examples include pagers, handheld radios, ga ...

General Hypersonic Propulsion
SBC: COMBUSTION RESEARCH & FLOW TECHNOLOGY INC Topic: AF071185Upgrades to a RANS Scalar fluctuation model (SFM) used to predict variations in turbulent Prandtl and Schmidt numbers in a scramjet combustor environment are proposed. Such upgrades will permit obtaining more accurate solutions leading to improved combustor designs. Experiments to be performed in Virginia Tech (and AFRL) facilities using existing models will be performed focused on SFM validation ...

Low Cost Fabrication of Carbon-Carbon (C-C) Aeroshells for Hypersonic Vehicles
SBC: MATERIALS RESEARCH & DESIGN INC Topic: AF071136Future Air Force hypersonic vehicles will employ complex shapes and fly extended maneuvering trajectories. Since the flight times may increase by an order of magnitude or more, existing ablative thermal protection systems will not be practical due to their excessive surface recession and high density. The future Air Force vehicles will employ wave rider shaped carbon-carbon aeroshells over multi ...

Improving Weapons Bay Acoustical Environments
SBC: COMBUSTION RESEARCH & FLOW TECHNOLOGY INC Topic: AF071256The F-22A main weapons bay experiences severe acoustic loading when exposed to the freestream. The severity and attenuation of this loading is exacerbated by the flight envelope of the F-22A aircraft, as well as the requirement to carry and release “smart” weapons throughout this envelope. This extremely harsh environment can also impact components that are mounted within the bay itself, inclu ...

Plume Simulation Using Advanced Image Processing Techniques
SBC: Propulsion Science & Technology Inc Topic: MDA05044ABSTRACT: Missile exhaust plume radiant emission is a key observable for any missile defense system using optical sensors. Current flowfield and signature tools cannot properly capture the plume structrue observed by missile defense sensors. This effort is designed to develop and implement image morphing techniques which can be used to interpolate, extrapolate, and correct the spatial distribut ...
