Particle Flow Physics Modeling for Extreme Environments
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: T403The liberation of particles induced by rocket plume flow from spacecraft landing on unprepared regolith of the Moon, Mars, and other destinations poses high mission risks for robotic and human exploration activities. This process occurs in a combination of "extreme environments" that combine low gravity, little or no atmosphere, with rocket exhaust gas flow that is supersonic and partially rarefie ...

Demonstration of Dual Mode Ionic Liquid Propulsion
SBC: STREAMLINE AUTOMATION LLC Topic: T2This program will design, fabricate, and test a dual mode propulsion system in a non-flight-weight configuration using a novel energetic, low-toxicity ionic liquid for both high thrust (conventional catalyst-based monopropulsion system) and low thrust (electrospray) engines. Non-Stoichiometric HydroxyEthyl Hydrazinium Nitrate (NSHEHN), developed under Army and NASA SBIR programs, will be used for ...

Photonics Integrated Circuit Enabled Miniature On-Chip Urine Test system with High Sensitivity and Reliability
SBC: APPLIED NANOFEMTO TECHNOLOGIES LLC Topic: T8Urine testing is an effective method for routine health monitoring. Spectroscopy-based urine test offers a highly sensitive and accurate urine test method with much less clinical lab equipment requirement. Existing spectroscopy urine test systems are still bulky, heavy, costly, and with high power consumption and thus not suitable for astronaut health monitoring in space. Photonics integrated circ ...
