- This federal grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Carthage College, a private university in Kenosha, Wisconsin, is for Phase II of the Modal Propellant Gauging (MPG) experiment. The goal of the MPG experiment is to assess the mass gauging resolution of a novel implementation of experimental modal analysis (EMA) for unsettled, microgravity propellant conditions. The $162,994 grant will fund research to develop and test slosh measurement and automated...
- This federal contract award to Carthage College, a private university in Kenosha, Wisconsin, is for the Modal Propellant Gauging (MPG) Experiment. The purpose is to demonstrate a non-invasive, inexpensive, and robust method for gauging settled and unsettled propellant in tanks with 1% accuracy for settled propellants and 2-4% for unsettled, sloshing propellants. The $280,967.08 grant contract, awarded by NASA, will fund two distinct experiments. The first will use parabolic flights to test the...
- This federal contract award extends the development of the Modal Propellant Gauging (MPG) project to support propulsion systems for the Lunar Gateway mission architecture. The $482,692.00 grant was awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center to Carthage College, a private university located in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Carthage College, which has no set-aside designation, is the prime contractor conducting fluid dynamics research to advance propellant...
- This is a $144,795.00 grant awarded to Carthage College, a private university in Kenosha, Wisconsin, by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center. The grant funds research on "Microgravity Propellant Gauging Using Modal Analysis" as part of Phase III of the project. Carthage College, which has conducted previous federal contract work for NASA and the Department of the Interior, will use this grant to further analyze propellant tank test data and...
- Carthage College, a private university in Kenosha, Wisconsin, was awarded a $271,749 grant from NASA to support the Magneto-Active Slosh Control (MASC) project. The MASC project aims to enhance the accuracy of propellant gauging in sloshing liquids and suppress destabilizing liquid slosh during spacecraft and launch vehicle maneuvers. This effort integrates the Modal Propellant Gauging (MPG) technology, a non-invasive approach to propellant measurement, with a Magneto-Active Propellant...
- This is a firm-fixed-price purchase order contract awarded by the Shared Services Center, a civilian federal agency, to Carthage College, a private university in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The $20,000 contract is to complete the data reduction for the Multi-Purpose Gas Orbital Maneuvering System (MPG OMS) tank test. The contract has a completion date of June 30, 2024 and does not have a set-aside designation. Carthage College has supported NASA's space exploration initiatives through previous federal...
- This is a $3,602,282.88 grant award to Carthage College, a private university in Kenosha, Wisconsin, from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) under the "Wisconsin Space Grant Program and Consortium Proposal and Budget for FYS 2015-2016, 2016-2017, 2017-". The grant supports the college's leadership in aerospace research, education, and outreach efforts throughout Wisconsin. Key objectives include educating and employing a science, technology, engineering, and...
- This federal contract award to Carthage College, a private university in Kenosha, Wisconsin, is valued at $609,419.00. The contract is a grant for research with the objective of validating computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models to estimate full-scale liquid volume fractions through flight tests. The contract is awarded by NASA's Shared Services Center and supports the agency's space exploration initiatives. There is no set-aside designation for this award. Carthage College is the prime...
- This federal contract award is a $6,203,240.00 Cooperative Agreement between the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center and Carthage College, a private non-profit educational institution located in Kenosha, Wisconsin. The award supports the mission of the Wisconsin Space Grant Consortium (WSGC) to use space and aerospace science to equip Wisconsin citizens with science, technology, engineering, and mathematics skills. The contract does not have a set-aside...
- This is a $226,149.59 federal grant awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to Purdue University, a prominent public research university, to conduct a knowledge gathering payload experiment focused on improving simulations of non-linear contact line motion and low-gravity propellant slosh motion. The objective is to generate data from a tailored testing geometry with some prior zero-gravity flight heritage, in order to better model and predict this common spacecraft...
This is a grant awarded by the Shared Services Center of NASA to Carthage College, a private university located in Kenosha, Wisconsin, to conduct the Modal Propellant Gauging (MPG) Experiment. The MPG Experiment is designed to assess the mass gauging resolution of a novel implementation of Experimental Modal Analysis (EMA) for measuring propellant mass in a microgravity environment. The central objectives are to record the modal response of a model propellant tank at different fill-levels under unsettled, microgravity conditions, and to record the modal response during simulated propellant transfer. EMA is an inexpensive, non-invasive, and computationally robust method to assess propellant mass through its effect on structural resonance modes. The grant has a ceiling value of $123,695.00 and a period of performance ending on May 31, 2017. There is no set-aside designation mentioned.
