Vibrant Corporation and Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) propose to apply Process Compensated Resonance Testing (PCRT) to the DLA's need for an NDI method to detect counterfeit, nonconforming and improperly processed materiel. PCRT collects and analyzes the resonance frequencies of a component to detect structural defects, characterize material, analyze population variation, monitor manufacturin ...

The final product will include a suite of three app-based puzzle games aligned to national math standards for number sense, algebraic thinking, and problem solving. The games will be designed for use in grade 5 and 6 classrooms where students develop and apply content expertise to solving challenges. The games will include an adaptive engine that assesses and adjusts content based on student level ...

Industrial Microbes is developing a green fermentation platform to replace carbon-emitting petrochemical production with newer methods that build chemicals out of methane and carbon dioxide.Chemical production is a major source of carbon pollution, responsible for 18% of direct industrialemissions. Our innovation is an engineered microbe that can consume carbon dioxide and methane and produce a ch ...

To address the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) needs for 3D printing technology for the medical supply chain, Interlog Corporation proposes to develop a new Hybridized Additive Manufacturing for Medical Equipment (HAMME) technology enabling to build multiple material equipment/supplies in a single platform. The HAMME is based on a unique, precision instantaneous energy generation mechanism providin ...

Most fielded aircraft weapon systems currently utilize wheel/brake technology that was developed in the 1960s thru 1980s.The wheel/brake systems rely almost exclusively on friction brakes to convert kinetic energy during a landing or rejected takeoff into heat energy.These friction-based components require large investments in high cost spares to replace worn friction consumables. Furthermore, str ...
