Innovative technologies for nondestructive determination of fracture toughness for pipeline steels in transportation infastructure
SBC: INNERSPEC TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: 180PH1In the inspection and quality assurance framework, coercimetry refers to non-destructive testing of mechanical properties based on measurements of the magnetic characteristics of a metal. This technology relies on the continuous and noticeable (100-400%) increase in the magnitude of the coercivity, while the metal passes from as-delivered to its final state. As both magnetic and mechanical propert ...

Synoptic Approach to Harmonize Discrete Data Streams in Application Development
SBC: IT WORKS! INC. Topic: 180NH1Research conducted in Phase I identified a range of data sources providing vehicle related information to consumers shopping around or interested in knowing more about vehicles. Majority of the commercial data sources focused on vehicle features, new/used/CPO pricing, and vehicles listings. Such data sources lacked safety as their central focus, which is a concern for U.S. Department of Transporta ...
