50-kV/1-A Sub-Microsecond Power Switch for Gyrotron Modulation
SBC: GANIFY LLC Topic: MTo enable fast and robust bias modulators for gyrotrons used in the nuclear fusion systems, GaNify LLC will develop a power switch capable of switching 50-kV and 1-A within 1 µs, without the need of series-stacking. This new technology will significantly reduce the circuit complexity and shorten the modulation voltage rise time. The new 50-kV power switch is based upon the demonstrated 10-kV gall ...

NDT of Fracture Toughness for Pipeline Steels
SBC: FBS INC Topic: 180PH1NDT of Fracture Toughness for Pipeline Steels3/16/2018Ultrasound-based technology to nondestructively determine fracture toughness of pipeline steels will be developed. Fracture toughness is the material parameter that, along with applied loading and flaw geometry, dictates the critical crack size, and therefore controls the flaw size that must be detected during inspections. A major challenge fac ...
