TS-075721 — Transportation manufacturers continue to face increasing pressure to improve vehicle energy efficiency, extend electric vehicle range, and reduce emissions without adding significant cost, weight, or system complexity. While passive aerodynamic features such as strakes and deflectors are commonly …

TS-075686 — The rapid growth of AI training and high-performance computing workloads is driving chip power densities beyond the capabilities of many conventional cooling approaches. Data center operators face a difficult tradeoff between supporting next-generation high-power processors and controlling the sub…

TS-075600 — Incremental forging offers manufacturers a flexible route to produce near-net-shape components without dedicated dies, but process planning remains highly dependent on operator expertise, trial-and-error development, and time-consuming programming. As part geometries become more complex, determini…

TS-075519 — A galactose-based RAFT chain transfer agent (Gal-RAFT) that incorporates a sugar moiety at the polymer terminus, enabling the synthesis of well-defined polymers with an integrated carbohydrate handle for subsequent biological applications.

TS-075450 — Safety-critical systems in industries such as energy, aerospace, industrial automation, and advanced manufacturing are becoming increasingly complex, integrating hardware, software, controls, sensors, and communication networks. Existing fault analysis methods are often domain-specific and require…

TS-074913 — Energy and chemical industries increasingly rely on hydrogen, natural gas, and syngas streams that require efficient removal of CO₂ and H₂S to meet purity and regulatory requirements. Conventional separation technologies (e.g., amine absorption, adsorption, cryogenic distillation) are energy-i…

TS-074864 — Modern structural systems increasingly demand integrated sensing, actuation, and health monitoring capabilities, particularly in aerospace, automotive, and advanced manufacturing. However, current approaches rely on separately fabricated sensors that are later attached to structures, introducing r…

TS-074793 — Sustainable production of advanced biofuels and biochemicals remains constrained by low yields, poor carbon efficiency, and limited scalability of current microbial platforms. In particular, biobutanol has struggled to achieve cost competitiveness due to inefficient carbon utilization and metabol…

TS-074623 — The construction industry faces growing pressure to reduce the carbon footprint of cement while maintaining performance, durability, and reliable supply chains. Traditional supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) such as fly ash and blast furnace slag are increasingly scarce or regionally cons…

TS-074512 — Modern diesel and high‑performance internal combustion engines demand pistons that withstand extreme thermal and mechanical loads while becoming lighter, more fuel‑efficient, and lower cost to manufacture. Steel pistons offer durability advantages over aluminum but are traditionally heavy and …
