Portable Multimodal Biometric Devices
SBC: AZIMUTH INC Topic: N08210Historically, portable biometric collection systems have been designed for fixed Law Enforcement office applications. Their limitations stem from the fact that they were designed for specific hardware collection sensors optimized for a specific application. To a large extent the software is proprietary to a single vendor’s sensor suite and not designed to accept international character sets. Cur ...

Power Dense Bottoming Cycles for Microturbine Energy Recovery
SBC: Johnson Research & Development Co Inc Topic: N091072The United States Navy (USN) is seeking innovative, power dense bottoming cycles for use in conjunction with microturbines. We propose a transformative and innovative, solid-state heat engine, the Johnson Thermoelectric Energy Converter (JTEC, US Patent 7,160,839) as an efficient power generator for advanced waste heat recovery for electricity generation. The JTEC technology was given a 2008 Break ...

Innovative Surface Modification for Aluminum, Magnesium and High Strength Steel Alloys to Enhance Corrosion Resistance
SBC: Innovative Materials Design and Processi Topic: N07125It is proposed to apply optimized surface treatment strategies to stainless steel identified from phase-I study to improve strength and corrosion resistance for wing-fold transmission (WFT) systems. During the six months of the phase I project, two material systems were considered for the preliminary study. These materials included: Custom 465 Stainless, and CSS 42L carburizing stainless steel. Th ...

Development of a Miniature, Vibro-Mechanical Energy Harvester for Powering Wireless Sensors
SBC: MicroStrain, Inc. Topic: N07178A major barrier to the widespread adoption of wireless sensors for structural health monitoring is the requirement to power the network of wireless nodes. Batteries have a limited lifespan, adding significant size, weight, and costs to the wireless sensor network,and may represent a long term environmental problem. Battery maintenance can be eliminated by harvesting energy from the environment. Fo ...

Control Surface Buffet Load Measurement
SBC: MicroStrain, Inc. Topic: N091013Structural monitoring of Navy aircraft is of critical importance as the fleet ages. One critical area includes the control surfaces, which are subject to intense, dynamic buffet loading which can lead to structural cracking. The highly transient nature of buffet loading makes it difficult to measure using conventional sensors. We propose to solve this problem by combining a network of time-synchro ...

Analog to Information (A2I) Sensing for Software Defined Receivers
SBC: PROPAGATION RESEARCH ASSOCIATES, INC Topic: N092106Propagation Research Associates, Inc., (PRA) proposes to design a receiver that will significantly reduce the sample rate required for a pulsed-Doppler EW sensing application using Compressive Sensing (CS) technology. The PRA Adaptive CS receiver will provide a compression in information space that will be sufficient to characterize multiple pulsed-Doppler waveforms accurately over a relatively la ...

Nonlinear Interaction of Impulsive Acoustic/Hydrodynamic Sources and Natural Ocean Inhomogeneities
SBC: Radio-Hydro-Physics LLC Topic: N09T002Scattering models have been developed during previous efforts, improving understanding of radar and optical signatures which may be anticipated under varying conditions and viewing geometries. Those models are extended here to the domain of impulsive, nonlinear interactions between acoustics and hydrodynamics, with attention to E-M field influences and the impact of a moving underwater object on ...

Multi-Layer Approach for Corrosion Resistance of Aircraft Aluminum Alloys
SBC: TOUCHSTONE RESEARCH LABORATORY, LTD. Topic: OSD09C03The objective of this proposed Phase I study is to develop an alternate production practice for high-strength aircraft aluminum alloys via an experimental layering process in order to enhance stress corrosion cracking (SCC) resistance. The basic operational processing procedure is to produce aluminum through roll bonding of a composite of several layers of standard material such that the grain sha ...
