Fusion of Airborne Surveillance and Intelligence Information
SBC: NUMERICA CORPORATION Topic: AF071066Airborne ISR platforms generate tactical air picture representations using kinematic information from radar and combat identification information from ELINT. This program seeks to develop a fusion system that is capable of combining airborne MTI (AMTI) radar data and airborne target ELINT (ATE) data to provide a Common Operating Picture (COP). Numerica's proposed fusion approach is formulated wi ...

Bismuth Hall Thruster Contamination Characterization and Mitigation
SBC: PLASMA CONTROLS, LLC Topic: AF081062Hall thrusters operated with bismuth propellant provide performance and cost advantages over devices operated with xenon propellant. However, bismuth propellant also has the potential to transport onto, and contaminate, spacecraft surfaces. Before the promise of bismuth thrusters can be exploited, the threat of contamination must be (1) quantified by Air Force (AF) modelers and (2) found to be m ...

High-capacity, High-rate Thermal Storage System
SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC. Topic: OSD08EP1When the average thermal dissipation requirement is substantially lower than the peak requirement, a thermal storage system is an excellent candidate. The system takes up the brief, high-powered pulse and dissipates it slowly. This strategy shrinks the system and reduces the weight of the system. Depending on the specific application, cycle times may be relatively short, with rates of 1,000 kJ/sec ...

Rapid Cure, Environmentally Acceptable Liquid Shim
SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC. Topic: AF071107Liquid shims are filled, viscous resins used in the assembly of modern composite aircraft to fill small gaps between structural components and prevent stress concentration at fasteners. Current liquid shims provide excellent physical-mechanical properties but they must cure for eight hours before they can be machined. Unfortunately, this long cure time results in a bottleneck in aircraft assembl ...

Wall-Mounted Thermally Stable Catalysts For Augmentor Flame Stabilization
SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC. Topic: AF071180High-performance turbine engines are an attractive means to power high speed aircraft and missiles. Although the basic turbine generates substantial thrust, an augmentor (or afterburner) provides even greater thrust margin and can accelerate the vehicle to much higher cruise Mach number. Unfortunately, achieving stable combustion in the augmentor can be difficult, especially when the inlet flow ...

Low Cost Deployable Reflector Support Structure
SBC: STARSYS, INC. Topic: AF073101A variety of DoD and commercial space-based RF applications have motivated substantial development of deployable antenna reflectors over the last few decades. Of the multiple reflector architectures that have been developed, mesh antenna systems have dominated the medium-to-large (5 – 20 m) reflector markets. As operating frequencies extend beyond 10 GHz into the Ku and Ka bands, reflector surfa ...

Three-Dimensional Fast-Multipole Solvers for Magnetic Fields for Use in High-Current Pulsed Power Application Systems
SBC: TECH-X CORPORATION Topic: AF081001This proposal presents an innovative concept and a novel approach to achieve topic solution. The innovative concept is known as the Next Generation Troop Seat (NGTS). It is a semi-rigid foam and fabric seat which achieves its capabilities through the integration of a Dynamic Structural Beam (DSB). In the mishap environment the patented and proven DSB provides a higher strength to weight ratio than ...
