Gap-Free Model-Based Engineering for Manufacturing and Analysis: Digital Thread without Translation
SBC: Nvariate, Inc. Topic: NoneModern Model-Based Enterprise / Engineering (MBE) systems rely on freeform surfaces built as complex combinations of geometric primitives to define engineered objects. Unfortunately, the intersection of freeform surfaces in MBE applications results in highly approximated solutions, degrading models that cost billions annually by US industry to fix. Current technology limits the abilities of users ...

High Acceleration and Hypervelocity Inertial Measurement Unit
SBC: NANOHMICS INC Topic: OSD181001Nanohmics proposes to develop a chip-scale inertial measurement unit (IMU) for munitions applications. The miniaturization is key to extreme-G survivability and operation. Models and simulations will provide primary support for the feasibility and a hardware demonstration will provide additional proof-of-concept and improve the program risk assessment prior to a Phase II program.

Secure Edge Computing with Encrypted Neural Networks
SBC: VCRSOFT LLC Topic: SCO182009Homomorphic Encryption (HE) allows for training and deployment of neural networks on encrypted data. Furthermore, HE allows for encryption of neural network model parameters such as weights. Thus, HE provides robustness against both black-box and white-box attacks. In the emerging cloud-based AI environments with edge computing nodes, HE enables privacy-preserving training and deployment of neural ...

Quantum Adversarial Machine Learning
SBC: VCRSOFT LLC Topic: SCO183001We propose a quantum adversarial machine learning (QAML) approach that combines ideas from different classical AML techniques such as Defense-GAN and thermometer-encoding of inputs. We propose an implementation of Defense-GAN on the D-Wave Leap quantum computing environment. We also propose to leverage ideas from quantum information science such as noisy inputs/outputs/parameters to improve the ro ...

Large-Area, High-Uniformity Photodiodes for Infrared Trap Detectors
SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC Topic: 9020168Rmethyst Research Inc. will design, fabricate and test a high uniformity, large area, low noise infrared trap-detector detector for the 1- 4.5 μm wavelength range. This state of the art detector will have a large area (e.g., 1-1.8 cm diameter active area) with a spatial variability of internal quantum efficiency of less than 0.1 % between 1 μm and 4.5 μm. In addition, the internal quantum effici ...

Recovery of Rhenium from Superalloy Scrap
SBC: LYNNTECH INC. Topic: OSD12T04Due to the limited amount of rhenium present in the earths crust (approximately 1-2 part per billion) there is a significant benefit to be realized in recovering for reuse the rhenium from scrap material, spent catalysts, or end-of-life superalloys. Rhenium is found in molybdenum-copper porphyry deposits. If rhenium is present in ore that is processed, it will show up in the resulting molybdenum ...

Improved Turbo/Superchargers for UAV Applications
SBC: BRAYTON ENERGY LLC Topic: OSD13PR5The benefits of greater power and efficiency are offered by using turbochargers and superchargers for small UAS propulsion systems which including rotary, piston, and other developing engines. Present day UASs suffer performance losses upon takeoff and at altitude. Therefore, the need for improved, light weight turbo and superchargers which eliminate the use of oil lubrication for the bearing sy ...
