TS-073692 — Fleet operators face increasing pressure to reduce operating costs and emissions while maintaining performance and reliability. Choosing the “right” truck (diesel, alternative fuel, or battery electric) for a specific duty cycle remains largely heuristic, conservative, and error‑prone. As a …

TS-073146 — As industrial systems become increasingly digital and interconnected, traditional risk assessment tools struggle to capture how cyber threats interact with physical processes in real time. Existing methods typically assess hardware failures or isolated cyber events, but they cannot model how attac…

TS-073138 — Designing online monitoring (OLM) for safety‑critical systems is constrained by scarce early‑stage operational data and by quantitative models that are slow to build, brittle across configurations, and costly to iterate. This creates expensive sensor networks with blind spots, poor diagnosabil…

TS-073103 — Physical protection remains a major driver of nuclear plant operations and maintenance costs, yet current security risk models rely on conservative assumptions and sparse empirical data on how defenders and operators actually behave under extreme threat. They rarely capture errors of commission, k…

TS-071386 — The Need The search for sustainable, high-performance battery materials is hindered by reliance on finite metal-based resources and slow, trial-and-error development cycles. Organic electrode materials (OEMs), composed of earth-abundant elements, offer a more sustainable path but present challenges …

TS-071385 — The Need Open source software is foundational to modern development, yet it introduces significant security risks due to outdated dependencies and inaccurate vulnerability advisories. Public databases often fail to identify all affected versions of software, leaving organizations exposed. With vulne…

TS-070971 — The Need Modern gas turbines and compressors rely on bladed disks, which are highly sensitive to mistuning caused by manufacturing tolerances, wear, or damage. Existing modeling tools are fragmented, complex, and often limited to specific mistuning types. Industry will greatly benefit from a unified…

TS-068440 — Accurate measurement of physical attributes, such as dimensions, alignments, and surface features, is essential for ensuring quality and consistency across industries. Traditional measurement methods, often reliant on manual tools and human oversight, are time-intensive, prone to errors, and lac…

TS-067792 — A software tool for optimizing the manufacturing process for metal alloys.

TS-066234 — In the realm of rotating machinery and structural engineering, the need to manage and mitigate vibrations is paramount. Excessive vibrations can lead to material fatigue, operational inefficiency, and catastrophic failures. Industries require a sophisticated, accurate, and versatile tool to design…
