Novel Algorithm/Hardware Partnerships for Real-Time Nonlinear Control
SBC: Elissar, LLC Topic: AF09BT06The growing complexity of future military systems demands the development of high-performance nonlinear control algorithms. The goal of this proposal is to develop a specially designed software/hardware architecture to enable real-time autonomous closed-loop control of nonlinear high-dimensional dynamical systems. Following the recent success of pseudospectral (PS) computational control methods in ...

Theoretical Innovations in Combustion Stability Research: Integrated Analysis and Computation
SBC: Kassoy Innovative Science Solutions Topic: AF09BT38Quantitative predictions of reactive flow dynamics from large-scale simulations of Liquid Rocket Engines (LRE) appear to be model dependent. Relationships and coupling among the dominant mechanisms most responsible for destabilization are obscured by the complexities of the model and subtle consequences of inherent ad hoc approximations not supported by mathematical rationale. The reliability of ...

Metal-blacks for plasmonic enhancement of solar-cell efficiency
SBC: Physical Engineering Corporation Topic: AF09BT39This Phase I STTR proposal will demonstrate nanostructured “metal-black” coatings to enhance absorption by thin film solar cells. The problem is that silicon has low absorption due to its indirect gap. The opportunity is that nano-scale metallic scattering centers increase the effective optical path length and enhance the solar electric-field strength in thin-film solar cells, leading to more ...

Orthogonal Chip Based Electronic Sensors for Chemical Agents
SBC: SEACOAST SCIENCE, INC. Topic: AF08T015Recent years have seen a shift in threats to US national security. Today increasing focus for national security is management of terrorist activities. Deliberately exposing a civilian population to chemicals and explosives to cause harm represents a looming terrorist threat. Early detection and identification is a difficult but essential element to minimizing the threat. The Seacoast Science/U ...

Distributed Adaptive Control of Engine Systems
SBC: AURORA FLIGHT SCIENCES CORPORATION Topic: AF08T026Aurora and Georgia Tech"s Phase I efforts demonstrated the feasibility of a partially distributed control scheme with separate controllers on the engine core and fan, where the controllers are linked by a supervisory controller. This scheme is representative of the situation encountered in VTOL UAV design and the design of new turbo-props and variable pitch turbofans by the large commercial gas t ...

Fast Updatable Large-area Holographic Display
SBC: NEW SPAN OPTO-TECHNOLOGY, INC. Topic: AF08T001Two-dimensional (2D) visualization techniques have limit capacity to achieve understanding of full dimensionality of the battlefield. Rewritable 3D holographic storage is promising for updatable 3D display applications. In Phase I, New Span Opto-Technology has demonstrated novel concepts of both holographic recording technique and recording material system without the use of high voltage. We have ...

Embedded Sensors for Flight Test (Every Aircraft a Test Aircraft)
SBC: NEXTGEN AERONAUTICS, INC. Topic: AF14AT01Increasing system capabilities in terms of weapon systems, ISR payloads, GNC, etc., enabled by smaller and more capable electronics systems have led to a trend for overall size reduction in military aircraft. This has resulted in a reduction in the avail...

Retrofittable and Transparent Super-Insulator for Single-Pane Windows
SBC: NANOSD, INC. Topic: DEFOA0001429NanoSD, Inc. with its partners will develop a transparent, nanostructured thermally insulating film that can be applied to existing single-pane windows to reduce heat loss. To produce the nanostructured film, the team will create hollow ceramic or polymer nanobubbles and consolidate them into a dense lattice structure using heat and compression. Because it is mostly air, the resulting nanobubble s ...
