A Broadly Tunable Ultrashort Pulse IR OPO Pumped by a Mode-Locked
SBC: SCIENCE & ENGINEERING ASSOC., INC. Topic: N/AWe propose to develop an innovative, compact ultrafast high brightness laser source, broadly tunable in the infrared for vibrationally-resolved infrared microscopy and other applications. By passive Kerr lens mode-locking of a novel diode-pumped tunable Cr:LiSAF laser, 100fs pulses will be generated at 100 MHZ repetition rate with an average power of 1W. An optical parametric oscillator (OPO) pump ...

Absorption Power Refrigeration Cycle
SBC: ENERGY CONCEPTS CO., LLC Topic: 4175990-Waste heat streams represent an enormous untapped energy resource. The smaller the quantity and temperature of the waste heat, the more difficult it is to convert it to power. Yet, the smaller waste heat streams are available in greatest number. This project will develop a new absorption cycle for converting low temperature (

Accelerating Compositional Reservoir Simulation with GPUs and Advanced Solvers
SBC: Stone Ridge Technology, Inc. Topic: 02aNumerical reservoir simulation is the primary tool a reservoir engineer uses to predict future production from hydrocarbon reservoirs and to develop a plan to maximize production at minimal cost. Compositional reservoir simulation, in particular, is required to have an accurate physical description of the subsurface oil and gas in development situations involving gas injection, condensate producti ...

Accessible Virtual Reality for Machinist Training Modules
SBC: Microcompatibles, Inc. Topic: N/AThis proposal will emphasize outfitting a virtual classroom and creating a skills (CNC) oriented training program. The virtual classroom will involve contextual learning using a realistic simulation of the manufacturing environment. The simulation will have all of the characteristics of a machine shop, but will allow the learner to explore and experiment ("discover") in ways that would not be pr ...

Accurate Vegetation Subtraction Tools for Disparate Data Products
SBC: APPLIED RESEARCH LLC Topic: 03cGrass, shrub, and tree all belong to vegetation with similar colors, but the heights can be quite different. Removal of vegetation from digital surface models (DSM) can result in enhanced digital terrain models (DTM). Conventional approaches using LIDAR and radar have achieved some success. However, there are still some challenges for other types of imagers. First, for infrared and RGB images, the ...

A COMPREHENSIVE FLOWMETER FOR ALL MATERIALS
SBC: Cushing Associates Inc Topic: N/AIT HAS LONG BEEN ESTABLISHED THEORETICALLY AND EXPERIMENTALLY THAT PERFORMANCE OF THE ELECTROMAGNETIC (EM) FLOWMETER DOES NOT, IN PRINCIPLE, DEPEND ON ANY CONSTITUTIVE PROPERTY OF THE METERED MATERIAL. IT THEREFORE HOLDS PROMISE OF METERING ANY MATERIAL THAT CAN BE BLOWN, PUMPED, OR EXTRUDED THROUGH A PIPE. TO DATE, THE PRINCIPAL PRACTICAL PROBLEM WITH THE EM FLOWMETER INVOLVES THE TRADEOFF THAT M ...

A Computational Tool for Simulating Hydrodynamic Behavior of Multiple Vessels in a Harbor
SBC: DYNAFLOW, INC Topic: N/AThe hydrodynamic characteristics of a vessel are affected in restricted waters by the proximity of nearby moving or moored vessels. Interactions can result in large motions, potential collisions and significant loads on nearby structures, banks, and sediments. In Phase 1, we developed and demonstrated feasibility of a PC-Based numerical code for the prediction of the hydrodynamics of multiple vess ...
