About this award

Written by GovTribe AI ·

This is a $631,189 firm fixed price contract awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Langley Research Center to Iowa State University of Science and Technology. The contract's objective is to develop algorithms to convert nondestructive evaluation (NDE) data into information on the size and location of defects in composite structures, and then integrate that information into finite element analysis (FEA) models. The contract includes tasks such as mapping NDE indications to defect locations, assigning accurate defect models, and integrating the defect models into FEA meshes. There is no set-aside designation for this contract, which has a completion date of May 15, 2019. As a public land-grant research university, Iowa State University has extensive experience in providing research, education, and specialized testing services to federal agencies through contracts and grants.

Description

As the agency reported it.

NRA (NASA (national aeronautics and space administration) research announcement) automatic incorporation of flaws into CAD (computer aided design) and FEA(finite element analysis)models based on measured NDE(nondesctructive evaluation) data the objective of this contract is to develop algorithms for conversion of acquired nondestructive evaluation data to information as the size and location of damage in a composite structure, then convert that information into a format which can be directly ported into a finite element analysis (FEA) routine. The contractor shall (1) develop algorithms for mapping nondestructive evaluation (NDE) indication of defects to the correct spatial locations of the defect within a structural component; (2) develop algorithms that assign an accurate model for the defects based on its NDE indication; (3) develop algorithms that integrate defect model into a finite element mesh; and (4) perform an assessment of the quality of the flaw sizes and locations in the mesh with an independent determination of size and locations of the flaws.
