Weapon System Intermittent Fault Detection
SBC: Livewire Innovation, Inc. Topic: AF083113ABSTRACT: Weapon systems or other high value electrical systems within the US military are all subject to wiring faults and degradation. Additionally, weapon systems are kept in service longer because of shrinking defense budgets, further compounding the risks associated with wiring systems. The ability to detect and provide the location of existing wiring problems or pending failures is critic ...

Highly Linear E-Band Traveling Wave Tube Amplifier
SBC: INNOSYS, INC. Topic: AF093147The Air Force has identified a need for an advanced traveling wave tube amplifier (TWTA) that supports future generations of broad bandwidth, efficient and linear military satellite and terrestrial communications. To address this need, InnoSys proposes to develop innovative solutions for advanced TWTAs that operate from 81 to 86 GHz, deliver high efficiency greater than 30% with a small signal ga ...

High Temperature, High Power Density Silicon Carbide (SiC) Based Motor Drives for Aircraft Applications
SBC: Arkansas Power Electronics International, Inc. Topic: AF071181The terminal objective of this Phase II work will be the development of compact, fully integrated, high-temperature (250 °C), high-power-density SiC-based motor drives for avionics applications. The developed multi-chip power module (MCPM) will target an advanced motor drive application such as actuators (i.e., position control). The initial electrical rating targeted will be a 270 VDC input volt ...

W-band Microwave Amplifier Power Module
SBC: INNOSYS, INC. Topic: AF063001InnoSys proposes the advanced development of microwave power modules (MPMs) that combine monolithic microwave integrated circuit (MMIC) driver amplifiers with miniature traveling wave tube (TWT) amplifiers. This provides high power density at low cost and a small size and weight. When used as a driver amplifier in the MPM, the V/W band MMIC provides sufficient power and gain to drive the special ...

Noise and Artifact Reduction in Computed Tomography (CT) Images
SBC: JDLL, INC. Topic: AF05203Current high-energy computed tomography (CT) techniques for nondestructive testing (NDT) of solid rocket motors (SRM) and other large industrial objects often produce inferior imagery due to artifacts, impairing detection, identification, and measurement of anomalies. Phase I results verified that these artifacts arise from failure of assumptions implicit in the filtered backprojection algorithm. ...

Artificial Intelligence Hybrid Range Scheduler
SBC: QUANTUM LEAP INNOVATIONS, INC. Topic: N/AScheduling is a complex, NP-hard problem that challenges the use of any single solution technique. In Phase I, we built a model that uses our multi-technique Quantum Leap Problem Solving Engine to solve a representative but simplified version of the AirForce Satellite Control Network (AFSCN) contact scheduling problem. The system demonstrated that it could schedule the hundreds (500 to 600) of t ...

Scramjet Combustor Simulations using Reduced Chemical Kinetics for Practical Fuels
SBC: REACTION ENGINEERING INTERNATIONAL Topic: N/AComputational fluid dynamics (CFD) is playing an increasingly important role in U.S. industry. In the aerospace industry, where the cost of construction and operation of sub-scale and prototype units increases significantly with the increase in size andspeed of aircraft, CFD plays an important role as an adjunct to experimentation in reducing the costs of testing and scale-up and the time to take ...

Novel High Temperature Geopolymer for Spall-resistant Pavement Materials
SBC: Sommer Materials Research, Inc. Topic: AF071108During the last two decades, there has been considerable interest and research in inorganic polymers (“geopolymers”) for high-temperature applications. Geopolymers are manufactured by combining aluminosilicate powders with activating liquids through a polycondensation reaction. The resulting cured geopolymer can exhibit high compressive strengths after only four hours of set time. Geopolyme ...

Geolocation and Attitude Determination from Laser Communication Systems
SBC: Space Photonics, Inc. Topic: AF071276In order to realize the geolocation and attitude determination benefits of formation flying multi-spacecraft clusters or constellations with onboard Acquisition, Tracking and Pointing (ATP) lasercom systems, four key elements must be present: 1. Broadband inter-spacecraft communications to enable the transport of high resolution pointing sensor data around the topology to the computing node(s) and ...
