Power Balance Solver Enhanced by an Experimental Absorption Cross-Section Database
SBC: Electro Magnetic Applications, Inc. Topic: T5We propose the development of a user-friendly software tool for estimating the electric field distributions within spacecraft enclosures based on the Power Balance (PwB) method and enhanced by a database of experimentally determined Absorption Cross-Sections (ACS) of common equipment, components and cables.The software will be built around an already developed PwB solver that determines the statis ...

Energy and Velocity Analyzer for Distributions of Electric Rockets
SBC: PLASMA CONTROLS, LLC Topic: T2Plasma Controls, LLC (SBC) and Colorado State University (RI) will mature an energy and species plasma diagnostic for use with plasma thrusters. The combined Energy and Velocity Analyzer for Distributions of Electric Rockets, or the lsquo;E-VADERrsquo;, is needed especially for characterizing the plasma plume of Hall thrusters, where researchers desire to know ion energies and charged species frac ...

Braided Thin-Ply Tapes
SBC: OPTERUS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, INC Topic: T12Opterus proposes to develop braided thin ply composite tapes. The tapes will be braided from ultra-thin spread-tow unidirectional carbon and glass ribbons and will enable a new source and form factor for thin-ply textiles. The resulting tapes will be especially useful for thin high strain composite space deployable structures where they will allow bias plies in long parts without requiring seams. ...

Next Generation Distributed Electric Propulsion Urban Air Mobility Aircraft Analysis/Design Tools
SBC: CONTINUUM DYNAMICS INC Topic: T15Urban Air Mobility (UAM) aircraft development, enabled by Distributed Electric Propulsion (DEP), is transforming the aerospace industry by providing on-demand, affordable, quiet, and fast passenger-carrying operations in metropolitan areas. Designing and producing safe reliable UAM aircraft is particularly challenging given the relative infancy of electric propulsion for aeronautical applications, ...

Provably Convergent Game-Theoretic Coordination for Space Vehicle Swarms
SBC: ASTER LABS, INC. Topic: T4This program will develop a communication-less solution to decentralized control and task coordination for multi-agent systems (MAS). Reducing the operational burden of MAS swarms on human operators will greatly improve the capability of spacecraft constellations and distant planetary explorations. The proposed solution would guide the MAS towards a cost minimized set of actions by performing grad ...

DEP Aircraft Terminal Area Ride Quality/Safety of Operations Assessment Tool
SBC: CONTINUUM DYNAMICS INC Topic: T15Dynamic gust encounters due to urban terrain and/or neighboring aircraft presents a significant safety hazard for Distributed Electric Propulsion (DEP) aircraft operating in Urban Air Mobility (UAM) environments.nbsp; DEP aircraft differ significantly from conventional single main rotor helicopters as they use multiple small rotors distributed over the airframe.nbsp; If a subset of these rotors ex ...

Highly Sensitive Flash LADAR Camera
SBC: VOXTEL, INC. Topic: T9To address the urgent need for 3D flash-lidar technology for landing on solar system bodies and for spacecraft rendezvous and docking with satellites, an effort is proposed to fabricate, characterize, and test a versatile, high-sensitivity InGaAs APD 3D flash lidar and to advance the technology-readiness level (TRL) of lidar technologies suitable for NASA mission requirements. Leveraging an existi ...

Efficient cFS-based On-board Lamberts Solution for DSMs
SBC: ADVANCED SPACE LLC Topic: T11Distributed Spacecraft Missions (DSM) architectures provide unique scientific and programmatic benefits including multipoint in-situ measurements, multi-angle viewpoints, and improved understanding of the connections between separately measured phenomena and their time variations. However, these missions impose significant operational demands on ground tracking resources and mission operators alik ...

Superconducting Coils for Small Nuclear Fusion Rocket Engines
SBC: PRINCETON SATELLITE SYSTEMS INC Topic: T2This proposal focuses on the superconducting coils subsystem, a critical subsystem for the PFRC reactor and Direct Fusion Drive and other fusion and electric propulsion technologies. Our strategy for PFRC has evolved since our Phase I proposal, and we now propose a hybrid magnet approach: a combination of so-called “dry” conduction-cooled low-temperature (LTS) superconductor magnets and high-t ...

Volume Sensor for Flexible Fluid Reservoirs in Microgravity
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: T6The Advanced Space Suit carries consumable cooling water maintained at ambient pressure within a soft-walled, flexible reservoir. To ensure uninterrupted thermal control it is critical to monitor the volume of water remaining, but no known sensor is suitable for this task. Existing measurement techniques are unacceptably sensitive to the motion and varying geometry of the reservoir in microgravity ...
