Prediction of Strutural Response and Fluid-Induced Vibration in Turbomachinery
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: T102Advanced turbomachinery components play a critical role in launch vehicle and spacecraft liquid rocket propulsion systems. To achieve desired efficiencies, extremely tight tolerances are often imposed between inducer blades and shrouds or other system components which sets up strong interactions that influence both the aerodynamics and the structural performance of blades and vanes. These transien ...

Unified In-Space Propulsion Framework for Prediction of Plume-Induced Spacecraft Environments
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: T102Chemical contamination of spacecraft components as well as thermal and force loading from firing liquid propellant thrusters are critical concerns for in-space propulsion applications. Gas molecular contamination and liquid droplet deposition due to incomplete combustion threaten to damage surface materials, sensitive instruments and optical sensors, and poses major risks for mission success. Liqu ...

High Fidelity Computational Models for Aggregated Tissue Interaction in Surgical Simulations
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: DHP16A001Surgical simulations aiming to support surgeon practices and medical education have attracted enormous research effort over the last two decades. However, the physical reality, especially on simulating aggregated tissue interaction, is still unsatisfactory. In this proposed work, an open source surgery simulation framework, SoFMIS, will be utilized and enhanced with tissue interaction models to a ...

High-Gain, Low-Excess-Noise APD Arrays for Near-Single-Photon-Sensitive LADAR
SBC: VOXTEL, INC. Topic: T901One of the challenges facing missions to other planetary bodies including Earth's Moon, Mars, Venus, Titan, Europa; and proximity operations (including sampling and landing) on small bodies such as asteroids and comets' is the ability to provide accurate altimetry for descent, then assess safe landing sites by surveying the landscape. To address NASA's need for space-hardened planetary entry, desc ...

Soft Robotic Manipulators with Enhanced Perception using Multimodal Sensory Skins
SBC: OTHER LAB, INC. Topic: T1101We propose that the key to robotic automation in unstructured environments is compliant robotic manipulators that can tolerate, sense, and leverage contact in a feedback loop. We will demonstrate an instrumented end-effector that will be capable of enhanced perception through observed and controlled contact. This approach requires: (i) a network of sensors capable of capturing the highly compliant ...

A Novel, Membrane-Based Bioreactor Design to Enable a Closed-Loop System on Earth and Beyond
SBC: MANGO MATERIALS INC Topic: T604The proposed innovation is a membrane bioreactor system to produce a biopolymer from methane gas. This new methane fermentation process will expand and advance current gas delivery techniques to create affordable fermentation methods on Earth and beyond. Mango Materials is currently working to scale up and commercialize the production of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) from methane, but its scaled-up ...

Integrated Optical Transmitter for Space Based Applications
SBC: FREEDOM PHOTONICS LLC Topic: T802The objective of this program is to develop, demonstrate and implement an integrated optical transmitter for RZ-DPSK modulation for integration into modems for the international space station (ISS). Conventional optical transmitters are based on commercially available discrete components. These have several fiber interconnects which leads to increased optical loss, reduced reliability in a space e ...
