Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS) Applications and Signal Processing Thursday, November 21, 2023, at 12:50pm Location: MAE-A-303 Jim Prater, Ph.D Senior Scientist Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Abstract Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS) is an imaging sonar primarily developed to provide high resolution imagery at ranges longer than practical with real aperture side-looking sonar systems. These […]

Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS) is an imaging sonar primarily developed to provide high resolution imagery at ranges longer than practical with real aperture side-looking sonar systems. These systems operate at lower frequencies when compared to real aperture systems which results in wider bandwidths and beamwidths. The wideband/widebeam nature of these systems enable capabilities far beyond […]

To be a consultant, all you need is a client. To get more clients, you need exposure. To build a consulting business, you need a few more things. In this talk, Dr. Meagan Pollock will share her career journey from engineer to educator to entrepreneur. She’ll recommend fundamental strategies for getting a service-based consulting business […]

Abstract: Enzymes that catalyze post-translational modifications of peptides and proteins (PTM-enzymes) – proteases, protein ligases, oxidoreductases, kinases, and other transferases – are foundational to our understanding of health and disease and empower applications in chemical biology, synthetic biology, and biomedicine. To fully harness their potential, there is a critical need to decipher their enzymatic and […]

Magnetoencephalography (MEG): Revealing Brain Activity, Functional Mapping, and Connectomics Abbas Babajani-Feremi, PhD Associate Professor Department of Neurology & AI University of Florida Magnetoencephalography (MEG) has emerged as a powerful tool for investigating brain activity, significantly advancing our comprehension of various neurological conditions. This presentation aims to elucidate the remarkable potential of MEG in the r […]

Abstract Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) has established plutonium processing capabilities to study nuclear forensic R&D. The processing capabilities emulate historical efforts used by the United States since the 1940s. This capability is a modular system that can process various flow sheets associated with the plutonium nitrate precipitation methods, including Pu (III) and Pu (IV) […]
