STTR Project
Company:
Continuum Dynamics, Inc.
34 Lexington Avenue
Ewing, NJ 08618-2302
Title:
Advanced Methods for Predicting 3D Unsteady Flows Around Wind Turbines
Summary:
This project will develop an entirely new class of multidisciplinary analysis software for predicting the aerodynamics, fatigue, vibration and noise of wind turbines. By improving the ability to design and predict the lift of wind turbines, this new software will help to increase the reliability and life span of wind turbines, reduce maintenance costs while minimizing our dependency on foreign energy supplies and reducing greenhouse gas and carbon emissions.

Energy Catalysis Inc.
1200 Florence Columbus Road, Suite 117
Burlington, NJ 08505-4200
Title:
Economical Process for Conversion of Biomass and Coal to Liquid Fuels
Summary:
This project will develop a direct liquefaction of renewable biomass and vast reserve of coal in U.S. to transportation fuels that will lead to energy independence from foreign oil and boost in the economy. An economical process for direct liquefaction of biomass and coal by hydroconversion in a low cost reactor system using novel catalysts.

5 Badgley Drive
New Providence, NJ 07974-2501
Title:
Reduction of Porosity for High Critical Current Density Bi-2212 Superconductor Wire
Summary:
High-field magnets are essential components of devices used in a number of advanced fields of science, such as NMR and ICR (widely used in drug discovery), magnetic fusion (searching for everlasting energy), and particle accelerators used in high energy physics. This study seeks to improve electric current carrying capability of Bi­2212 wire by reducing porosity in filament.

Company:
Mechanical Solutions, Incorporated
11 Apollo Drive
Whippany, NJ 07981-1423
Title:
A System for Conducting Sophisticated Mechanical Tests In-Situ with High Energy Synchrotron X-Rays
Summary:
To gain a better understanding of why structures such as bridges, dams, and airplanes fail, x-rays are used to experimentally characterize these failures in a controlled laboratory setting. This project will develop a specialized machine that can induce fracture and fatigue - two common sources of failures - for use in x-ray experiments enabling scientists to better explore these failures.
