Infectious hematopoeitic necrosis (IHN) is a highly contagious rhabdoviral disease of important species of trout and salmon. There are presently no proven or accepted methods for prevention or treatment of IHN. Under the intensive conditions of aquaculture, IHN virus (IHNV) causes significant losses at nearly all stages of production. The results of Phase I studies indicated that intraspecific var ...

The overall objective of this work is to develop a general-purpose CFD-based, shape optimization tool for robust and efficient aerodynamic shape optimization. Shape optimization is a technology where design optimization algorithms are coupled with geometry/shape deformation tools and engineering analysis codes such as computational fluid dynamics and structural analysis. The optimization algorit ...

Project Summary/Abstract The object-oriented modeling language Modelica allows users to analyze the performance of their complex systems consisting of mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, control, etc. components. Many manufacturing industries and national laboratories are increasingly using Modelica to develop the next generation of energy efficient systems. However, simulating complex systems that ...

Project Summary/Abstract Sentient proposes to develop predictive modeling tools for parts made through the additive manufacturing (AM) processes. Our approach requires the use of high performance computing (HPC). The use of additive manufacturing processes to make different engineering components has been increased over the past years. However, there is not a well-established standard for qualific ...

Liquid metal-cooled fission reactors are both moderated and cooled by a liquid metal solution. These reactors are typically very compact and they can be used in regular electric power production, for naval and space propulsion systems or in fission surface power systems for planetary exploration. Liquid metals in fusion reactors can be used in heat exchange, tritium breeder systems and in first wa ...

We propose creating a new company to deliver accelerated graph-based analytics for modern manycore systems. The work combines advanced multithreading and work-moving typical of HPC but targeted at cloud environments with insight into the structure of the graph to improve spatial locality and an attribute-first query system to dramatically reduce the work required to solve practical graph problems ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this project is the superiority of the accuracy of magnetoreception sensor technology, compared to the state-of-the-art for the aviation industry. In February 2012, Congress passed the FAA Modernization and Reform Act, requiring the Secretary of Transportation to develop a plan to (1) accelerate safely the integration of civil UASs into the national airsp ...
