A Mobile and Social Approach to Fostering Casual Carpooling in New Corridors
SBC: APPLIED ENGINEERING MANAGEMENT CORPORATION Topic: 161FH1The technical objective of this Phase I project is to develop concept that demonstrates the viability of one or more tools and/or approaches to catalyze casual carpooling in a corridor where it does not exist or to improve casual carpooling in a corridor where it is present but underperforming. The proposed approach offers four unique components: (1) building off of the existing casual carpoolin ...

Entire Ship Ballast Autonomous Wireless Monitoring System
SBC: INVOCON, INC. Topic: N/AThe exchange of ship ballast water has introduced non-native organisms to ports around the world. These bioinvaders are non-indigenous species that have the potential to upset local ecological systems and economics. Various treatment methods are in limited use or experimentation: heat treatment, ultraviolet, chemical, and filtration. These are successful in eliminating a portion of the organis ...

Nonlinear Ultrasonic Rail Inspection System
SBC: NASCENT TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS, LLC Topic: N/ARail inspection has seen steady, incremental advances for decades. From early Sperry ultrasonic inspection cars to EMATS, rail NDE has followed a tried and true path ¿ launch carefully selected critical angle waves to inspect a region of the rail under or near the sensors. In this proposal, we take a fundamental departure from that tradition to better differentiate critical defects. Our approac ...
