Quench Monitoring and Control System for High-Temperature Superconducting Coils
SBC: ADVANCED CONDUCTOR TECHNOLOGIES LLC Topic: N19AT016The Navy has been developing superconducting systems, based on high-temperature superconductors (HTS), for future use on Navy ships. One of the challenges associated with superconducting magnets is the possibility of a quench, which is an event where a local hot spot develops within the superconductor that quickly spreads throughout the device, driving it into its normal and dissipative state. Sen ...

Atomic Triaxial Magnetometer
SBC: VESCENT PHOTONICS LLC Topic: N19AT006Vescent Photonics and MIT Lincoln Labs (MIT-LL) propose to develop a quantum-based vector magnetometer with low size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP+C) for Navy applications. The proposed system will rely on probing magnetically-sensitive, atomic-like transitions of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond to provide stable, high-bandwidth readout of the vector magnetic field with sub-picotesla sen ...

Information-based Norms on Flow, Operations and Traffic Over Networks (INFOTON)
SBC: ISEA TEK, LLC Topic: N18AT027The Internet of Things (IoT) connects people, data, and "things" (e.g., software, sensors, platforms), facilitating the translation of information into actions. Although naval platforms’ networks and communication suites have evolved significantly in the past few years to support such required connectivity, one of the greatest technical challenges still facing the military community is the proce ...

TOPMAST II- Repurposing Computational Analyses of Tactics for Training Assessments
SBC: APTIMA INC Topic: N18AT003As the complexity of threats and emerging warfare capabilities increase, so do the number of Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) and the corresponding training regimes. Instructors are increasingly in need of automated tools to enable training that scales with complexity. Aptima, Inc., and our partners, Aviation Systems Engineering Company, Inc. (ASEC) and the University of Southern Califor ...

CRANE: Cervical Readiness Using Analytics and Non-Invasive Evaluation
SBC: APTIMA INC Topic: DHA18B001Current cervical spine assessment methodologies are focused on subjective measures (i.e. pain reports) and range-of-motion (ROM) measures that only measure maximum head excursion and reach, but not dynamic motion. Due to report bias and existing incentive

ALCHEMI: Attacker Learning in Cybernetworks using Heterogeneous Energy-guided Model Inference
SBC: APTIMA INC Topic: N19AT021The United States relies on networks of cyber-physical systems to conduct military and commercial operations, such as logistics, transportation, information sharing, energy production and distribution, financial transactions, elections, and infrastructure management. As the volume and diversity of cyber-attacks on these networks dramatically increase, there is a growing need for advanced tools and ...

TACTIC-D II: Techniques to Adjust Computational Trends Involving Changing Data
SBC: APTIMA INC Topic: N17BT032The US Navy recognizes the potential for “big data” to facilitate force readiness. However, the analysis of such data presents numerous challenges, among them, (1) the evolving nature of Navy tactics, hindering apples-to-apples comparisons; (2) the presence of many interdependent platforms, making data complex; and (3) presenting analyses to humans, making understandability important. Aptima ...

Out-of-Oven Aerospace Composites
SBC: CORNERSTONE RESEARCH GROUP INC Topic: N18BT031Large aerospace composite structures currently require autoclaves and ovens to achieve desired performance which are expensive to purchase, costly to operate, and often limit part size and production rate. Ovens and autoclaves rely on convective heating which is inefficient, consumes large amounts of energy, and can be difficult to predict. Alternative cure processes using external heaters or hot ...

Carbon Nanotube-Based Heater Coatings for Processing of Thermosetting and Thermoplastic Composites
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: N18BT031For this research program, Mainstream will collaborate with Colorado State University (CSU) to develop a nanostructured heater capable of curing aerospace grade composites out-of-autoclave (OOA). The use of autoclaves is the primary cost driver in composite manufacturing due to size limitations, long processing times, and inefficient energy usage. Therefore, the Navy is looking to develop a nanost ...

Compact Waste Heat Recovery Power Generation System
SBC: SPECTRAL ENERGIES LLC Topic: N19AT013The STTR topic N19A-T013 seeks innovative technology to improve the power density and efficiency of propulsion and power generation devices. To address this challenge, Spectral Energies in collaboration with its academic partner Dr. Rory Roberts at Wright State University proposes to develop a compact heat recovery system based on a supercritical CO2 based Rankin Cycle. At the end of the STTR prog ...
