Puckboard  is a real-time collaborative flight scheduling platform available worldwide to service members using any device. Featuring an intuitive user interface that feels natural and familiar, Puckboard innovates squadron operations and enables service members to focus on the mission at hand. The platform is fully certified and authorized to operate on military or civilian networks and was the ...

This D2P2 program plans to explore a new refractory coating technology to successfully coat additively manufactured (AM) C103 components that exhibit variability in surface roughness, 3D geometrical complexity and build orientation with precision-engineer

To aid in Air Force design and sustainment activities of additively manufactured components, QuesTek Innovations LLC, in collaboration with the University of Utah, will further develop and mature an accurate, efficient, and comprehensive fatigue life mode

Current production methods of next-generation high critical field strength solid state electronic materials like the emerging UWBG Ga2O3 are too slow, yields are too low, electricity costs are too high, and defects plague the realization of an energy-effi

Triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMSs) are three dimensional non-self-intersecting surfaces that can be precisely described by mathematical functions. The continuous, smooth surfaces suggest more uniform stress distribution and potentially enhanced load

Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) is actively involved in the safe transportation of energy and hazardous material that are vital to daily lives. This also includes underground natural gas storage (UNGS) maintenance and safe operation which are critical to nation's energy infrastructure. Enhancing leak detection and identifying smart ways to prevent potential well blow ...

Satellite platforms play a critical role in the modern defense and intelligence infrastructure, providing timely, detailed, and readily available imagery to support U.S. national security. An ever present and fundamental requirement for this type of data is automated target detection and recognition, helping to quickly locate and correctly identify targets from vast quantities of image data. Despi ...

CBC’s HIPS solution is a low-profile, omni-directional wind turbine that can be rapidly deployed and safely emplaced anywhere on an Agile Combat Employment (ACE) airfield without risking aircraft collisions, disrupting radar, nor requiring re-deployment t

Scene simulation is an integral component of weapon system research & development, allowing researchers to evaluate new sensor concepts entirely in the digital space as well as drive scene projection during hardware-in-the-loop testing. Unfortunately, research scientists are limited to a small set of available background environments that cover only a few geographic locations.  VSI proposes GEOSI ...

The current Phase II project is expanding the CBAM material offerings to include uniaxial carbon-fiber substrates into the CBAM process.  It has already been shown that the strength and stiffness have improved by at least 250-300% (3.5-4x stronger and sti
