Extensible PDE and Wavelet Tools for Tactical
SBC: INSIGHTFUL CORPORATION Topic: N/AThe military is increasingly making use of various types of imaging sensors, such as SAR, ISAR,IR, and optical, for tasks such as surveillance, precision strike, automatic target recognition, and rapid retargetting. Traditional techniques for image enhancement and segmentation have a limited utility for military applications using the kinds of sensors. In this research, we will develop a ...

Hybrid Propulsion Systems for Undersea Weapons
SBC: Barber-Nichols, LLC Topic: N05T024Leveraging existing Simulation Based Design and Multidisciplinary Optimization (SBD / MDO) analyses, optimal hybrid torpedo configuration(s) will be developed. Engineering analyses will be performed on a new chemical oxygen storage and delivery concept and turbomachinery for the hybrid propulsion system. Analysis performed will result in component performance metrics that will be used in system ...

Low-cost, Position Indicator for Nondestructive Inspection C-Scanning
SBC: VM SOLUTIONS, INC. Topic: N05T004The Navy's nondestructive inspection mainly uses portable instruments with hand held ultrasonic or eddy current probes. The inspector makes the calls based on the data displayed on the instrument in real time without the aid of an image. This makes it difficult to distinguish between flaws and normal substructures and to quantify the size, shape and severity of the flaws. The problem can be great ...

Multi-Modal Command Recognition for J-UCAS Direction
SBC: DEVELOSOFT CORP. Topic: N03T003An aircraft carrier’s flight deck is a thousand accidents waiting to happen… large, heavy aircraft must move nimbly about a maelstrom of men, vehicles, aircraft, and bombs. An aircraft moves safely only when the pilot understands the directors perfectly. Now take the pilot away... how can you achieve high sortie rates, reduced manning, and absolute safety with a “dumb” aircraft without th ...

OptForceT: New Human Resource Optimization Methods
SBC: OPTIMIZATION TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: N03T004OptTek Systems, Inc. is developing new software to significantly enhance optimization applications. The software, called OptForce, incorporates a sophisticated Meta-Structured Optimization (MSO) approach directly into the representation of the decision-making process. It has been demonstrated to be more effective than traditional mixed integer programming and heuristic solvers. Coupled with simula ...

Optical Windows from Nanostructured Ceramic Composites
SBC: SYNKERA TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: N04T008Future weapon and aircraft systems require IR windows and domes capable of withstanding greater heating rates, greater mechanical loads, and more severe rain and particle impact environments than can be withstood by sapphire. Nanostructured ceramic composites with grain size below 50 nm have the potential to achieve such performance. Synkera Technologies proposes the development of a new nanostr ...

Photonic Crystal Applications for Laser Diode Technologies
SBC: nLight Photonics Topic: N05T010The objective of this proposal is to derive a practical, manufacturable route to a high performance two-dimensional photonic crystal broad area high power diode laser, through collaboration between a leading research institution (Caltech) and a leading manufacturer of high power diode lasers (nLight). Initial work would be performed on InP based high power broad area devices, but would be transfer ...

Portable Logistical Fuel Cell Powered Generator
SBC: INNOVATEK, INC. Topic: N05T016InnovaTek proposes to develop a JP-8 fuel cell electrical generator built on a microchannel reactor design that provides a very low volume, light weight system. The objective of the Phase I work is to develop and demonstrate the feasibility of a processing configuration that converts JP-8 fuel to a hydrogen rich feed for a solid oxide fuel cell that produces 0.5 to 1 kW electrical power. Key comp ...
