- Description
- Synopsis: <p> NASA Marshall Spaceflight Center in Huntsville, AL solicits interest from companies interested in obtaining license rights to commercialize, manufacture and market the following technology. License rights may be issued on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis and may include specific fields of use. <p> THE TECHNOLOGY: <p> Researchers at NASAs Marshall Spaceflight Center have developed a highly efficient and passive method to control the way fluids and structures communicate and dictate the behavior of a system. Developed to solve a difficult structural dynamics issue of a national asset, an FSC device weighing less than 200 lbs successfully mitigated a potentially detrimental resonant response of this 650,000 lb structure. This technology has the demonstrated potential to mitigate a multitude of different types of vibration issues and can be applied anywhere where internal or external fluids interact with physical structures. For example, in a multistory building, water from a rooftop tank or swimming pool could be used to mitigate seismic or wind-induced vibration by simply adding an FSC device that controls the way the building engages the water. <p> To express interest in this opportunity, please respond to Amy Witsil, Research Triangle International (RTI), at E-mail: awitsil@rti.org, or phone: 919-541-6923. Please indicate the date and title of the FBO notice and include your company and contact information. For more information about licensing other NASA-developed technologies, please visit the NASA Technology Transfer Portal at http:// http://techtran.msfc.nasa.gov/index.php. <p> RTI is responsible for aggregating and acknowledging all responses. These responses are provided to members of NASA Marshalls Technology Transfer Office for the purpose of promoting public awareness of NASA-developed technology products, and conducting preliminary market research to determine public interest in and potential for future licensing opportunities. If direct licensing interest results from this posting, the Technology Transfer Office will follow the required formal licensing process of posting in the Federal Register. No follow-on procurement is expected to result from responses to this Notice.
