Abstract: Compositions are described for protecting a metal surface against corrosion. The composition includes a corrosion-inhibiting particle. The corrosion inhibiting particle may be usable in an epoxy resin-based coating or an olefin resin-based coating. The particle may include a core and a protectant. The core may include a water soluble corrosion inhibitor. The protectant may be disposed on at least a portion of a surface of the core and may be covalently or ionically bonded to a thiol group of the corrosion inhibitor. The protectant may be configured to reduce reaction between the core and the epoxy resin or the olefin resin. Methods of making the compositions are also disclosed.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure provide systems and methods for in-flight go-around maneuver detection. An example method includes monitoring information associated with a flight path of a first aircraft while the first aircraft is flying. The method further includes detecting a maneuver associated with the flight path in response to one or more criteria associated with the monitored information being satisfied. The method further includes performing one or more actions associated with the second aircraft in response to detecting the maneuver.

Abstract: A computing system comprises an abstracted interface comprising a plurality of sub-interfaces differently configured from one another in terms of underlying communication hardware and software supported by the sub-interface. The abstracted interface further comprises a unified interface communicatively coupled with each of the sub-interfaces. Each sub-interface is configured to abstract away its respective underlying communication hardware and software from the unified interface. The unified interface is further configured to provide communication between the communication service and the control center. A monitoring service is configured to observe communication activity and output one or more communication parameters. A data prioritization policy is chosen based upon the one or more communication parameters. Data is selected for transmission based upon the data prioritization policy. The selected data is provided to one or more of the plurality of sub-interfaces selected based upon the data prioritization policy to thereby transmit the selected data.

Abstract: A delay line is configured to acoustically couple a phased array transducer to a workpiece. The delay line includes a delay line bottom portion, a delay line end portion, and a delay line top portion. The delay line bottom portion has a delay line flat surface. The delay line end portion is contiguous with the delay line bottom portion and has a delay line curved surface extending upwardly from the delay line flat surface at a delay line transition point between the delay line curved surface and the delay line flat surface. The delay line top portion has an array mounting surface configured to support a phased array transducer in a manner such that ultrasonic waves emitted by the phased array transducer pass through the delay line and exit along the delay line flat surface at least up to the delay line transition point.

Abstract: Methods of determining corrosion of an object that occurs over a time period. The methods determine physical factors of the object and environmental factors that occur during the time period. Node points are determined on the object. At different times during the time period, the methods determine the corrosion of the object at the node points based on the physical factors and the environmental factors. A cumulative corrosion of the object is determined based on the corrosion determined at each of the node points at each of the times.

Abstract: A method for deicing in a laser sensor window in an aerospace vehicle. A deicing laser beam is transmitted from a laser beam generator in the aerospace vehicle into the laser sensor window in the aerospace vehicle. The deicing laser beam has properties that remove ice from the laser sensor window. A sensor laser beam is transmitted from the laser beam generator through the laser sensor window.

Abstract: A system for coordinating operations for a plurality of unmanned aerial vehicles (“UAV”) is provided. The system generates a time-based sequence comprising one or more operations for each UAV, each operation including an execution window and a duration, identifies coincident time periods between first and second execution windows, and prepares a modified time-based sequence for each of the plurality of UAVs. The preparing includes setting at least one of a first preferred start time (“PST”) for a respective operation within the first execution window and a second PST for a respective operation within the second execution window based on at least the estimated duration of each respective operation and the coincident time periods. The setting is configured to minimize overlap between respective operations within the first and second execution windows. Modified time-based sequences for the plurality of UAVs are then provided to an operator.

Abstract: A system and method for in-process inspection of a fused-filament fabricated part comprises an extrusion head and an associated laser profilometer for scanning and generating two-dimensional surface scans of additively deposited layers of the fused-filament fabricated part following material deposition of the layer by the extrusion head and prior to the deposition of subsequent layers. The surface scans are used to inspect the fused-filament fabricated part for defects during, or subsequent to, the fabrication of the part, either layer-by-layer or through a reconstruction of the part in three dimensions.

Abstract: A flow path duct system for a propulsion system of an aircraft includes a base defining a flow surface. The base has an internal surface and an external surface. A plurality of perforations are formed through the base between the internal surface and the external surface. A plurality of supports define a plurality of cavities. The plurality of supports extend outwardly from the external surface of the of the base. One or more of the plurality of cavities are in fluid communication with the one or more of the plurality of perforations. A backing surface is secured to the plurality of supports. The plurality of supports are disposed between the base and the backing surface. The one or more of the plurality of cavities are in fluid communication with an internal volume defined by the internal surface of the base through the one or more of the plurality of perforations. The base, the plurality of supports, and the backing surface can be integrally formed together as a monolithic, load-bearing structure.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a preform for a portion of an aircraft includes acquiring a sheet of broad good fiber reinforced material, trimming the sheet to form layup pieces having boundaries, placing the boundaries into alignment, arranging the layup pieces in a layup pattern to form a ply, performing a placement operation that transports the layup pattern onto a layup mandrel, and shaping the layup pattern into conformance with a contour of the layup mandrel.
