Software for Application of HHT Technologies to Time Series Analysis Project
nasa-test-0.demo.socrata.com | Last Updated 2015-07-20T05:27:16.000ZThe proposed innovation is a robust and user-friendly software environment where NASA researchers can customize the latest HHT technologies for the LISA (and LIGO) application. The proposed technology will include the latest discoveries and inventions not available in the state-of-the-art. Its taxonomy includes gravitational sensors and sources, expert systems, portable data analysis tools, software development environments, and software tools for distributed analysis and simulation. The disturbance caused by the passage of a gravitational wave is expected to be very small and will be measured with laser interferometry. The Hilbert-HuangTransform (HHT)and related analysis technologies developed since the original concept has been used successfully in other applications to extract non-linear and transient signal comonents of very small magnitude with respect to the measured signal. The proposed research and development team has participated in the latest cycle of technology development related to the HHT at the theoretical, implementation, and application levels. Not only will the creation of the proposed software contribute to the data analysis of the gravitational wave signals in the laser interferometry measurements (for both LIGO and LISA data), but also in other applications within and outside NASA's mission.

Robust Optimal Fragmentation and Dispersion of Near-Earth Objects Project
nasa-test-0.demo.socrata.com | Last Updated 2015-07-20T05:31:30.000Z<p> During the past 2 decades, various concepts for mitigating the impact threats from NEOs have been proposed, but many of these concepts were impractical and not technically credible. In particular, all non-nuclear techniques require mission lead times larger than 10 years. However, for the most probable impact threat with a warning time less than 10 years, the use of high-energy nuclear explosives in space becomes inevitable for proper fragmentation and dispersion of an NEO in a collision course with Earth. However, the existing nuclear subsurface penetrator technology limits the impact velocity to less than 300m/s because higher impact velocities destroy prematurely the detonation electronic equipment. Thus, an innovative space system architecture utilizing high-energy nuclear explosives must be developed for a worst-case intercept mission resulting in relative closing velocities as high as 5-30km/s. An advanced system concept is proposed for nuclear subsurface explosion missions. The concept blends a hypervelocity kinetic-energy impactor with nuclear subsurface explosion, and exploits a 2-body space vehicle consisting of a fore body and an aft body. These 2 spacecraft bodies may be connected by a deployable boom. The fore body provides proper kinetic impact crater conditions for an aft body carrying nuclear explosives to make a deeper penetration into an asteroid body. For such a complex mission architecture design study, non-traditional, multidisciplinary research efforts in the areas of hypervelocity impact dynamics, nuclear explosion modeling, high-temperature thermal shielding, shock-resistant electronic systems, and advanced space system technologies are required. Expanding upon the current research activities, the Iowa State Asteroid Deflection Research Center will develop an innovative, advanced space system architecture that provides the planetary defense capabilities needed to enable a future real space mission more efficient, affordable, and reliable.</p>

Solid-Solid Vacuum Regolith Heat-Exchanger for Oxygen Production Project
nasa-test-0.demo.socrata.com | Last Updated 2015-07-20T05:17:45.000ZThis SBIR Phase-1 project will demonstrate the feasibility of using a novel coaxial counterflow solid-solid heat exchanger to recover heat energy from spent regolith at 1050<SUP>o</SUP>C to pre-heat inlet regolith to 750<SUP>o</SUP>C, either continuously, or in 20kg batches. In granular solids the area of contacts between 'touching' grains is quite small. Thus, solid-solid conduction often plays only a minor role in heat transfer through granular solids (i.e., 'effective' conduction), and when an interstitial gas is present, heat transfer occurs primarily via conduction through the gas. If the granular solid is also flowing, then solids convection becomes a significant factor in overall heat transfer and effective 'conduction'. Under vacuum conditions, and at temperatures above 700<SUP>o</SUP>C, radiation will dominate most heat transfer processes; however, solids convection can also play a very significant secondary role. Utilizing judicious placement of radiation baffles, and a novel counterflow configuration, the approach proposed in this SBIR can accomplish the desired heat transfer between spent and fresh regolith with only one moving mechanical part, by making effective use of both radiative heat transfer and solids convection. Discrete-element simulations of regolith flow will be utilized to refine the concept. Utilization of an existing ~1.4 cubic meter partial-vacuum facility at the University of Florida will facilitate construction of feasibility demonstration prototypes during Phase-1 and/or Phase-2. The Phase-1 project will demonstrate the effectiveness of combining solids convection with radiative heat transfer to rapidly transfer heat from 1050C spent material to heat fresh regolith to 750C under vacuum conditions.

Additive Manufacturing Technology Development Project
nasa-test-0.demo.socrata.com | Last Updated 2015-07-20T05:39:10.000Z<p>The 3D Printing In Zero-G (3D Print) technology demonstration project is a proof-of-concept test designed to assess the properties of melt deposition modeling additive manufacturing in the microgravity environment experienced on the International Space Station (ISS). The lessons learned from this technology demonstration will be used for the next generation of melt deposition modeling in the permanent NanoRacks Additive Manufacturing Facility (AMF) as well as for any future additive manufacturing technology NASA plans to use, such as metals or electronics in-space manufacturing, on both the ISS and Deep Space Missions. This demonstration is the first step towards realizing a &ldquo;machine shop&rdquo; in space, a critical enabling component of any Deep Space Mission.</p><p>The 3D Print payload consists of a 3D printer (a two-axis extruder mobility system, a single-axis print tray mobility system, the extruder and accompanying feedstock cartridge, the print tray, Environmental Control Unit (ECU, a prototype for the permanent AMF), an electronics box, and all of the necessary cables and bolts to attach the device to the ISS Microgravity Science Glovebox&nbsp;(MSG) cold plate, MSG laptop computer, and MSG power supply) and all identified spare parts. The 3D Print payload will operate within the MSG. The payload uses extrusion-based additive manufacturing technology to fabricate objects. Additive manufacturing is the process of creating three dimensional objects from a Computer Aided Design (CAD) model where material is deposited layer by layer. The 3D Print payload will extrude a bead of thermo-polymer material from a larger diameter feedstock material. When one layer is complete, the next layer is printed on top and bonded to the lower layer while still molten. This creates an adhesive bond as opposed to a solid material extrusion.</p><p>Performance goals were defined realizing the 3D Print is a technology demonstration. The following is a list of minimum success criteria:<br />1. Successful integration and safe operation in the MSG on the ISS<br />2. Demonstration of extrusion based additive manufacturing using polymeric material<br />3. Successful extrusion and traversing<br />4. Printing of one part while in ISS microgravity<br />5. Mitigation of functional risks for future facilities<br />6. Comparison of ISS printed parts with those printed on Earth (dimensional and strength testing).</p>
