Abstract: While lithium-ion batteries have been the standard for energy storage for decades, today’s rising standards for energy density and charging capabilities have led to the entrance of next-generation battery technologies with greater performance capabilities to reimagine everything we do, touch and use. As we explore the possibilities of electrifying key sectors, the technology powering batteries is now more important than ever. Standing at the forefront of this momentous feat is Washington-based Group14 Technologies, the world’s largest manufacturer and supplier of advanced silicon battery materials. Today, Group14’s drop-in flagship commercial product, SCC55™, is already dramatically transforming the possibilities for all applications. In this session, Chris will dive into the process innovation behind Group14’s award-winning silicon battery material; the company’s unique modular manufacturing approach; and the key markets new battery technologies will disrupt in the near future. As Group14 continues to expand and advance its manufacturing capabilities to meet demand globally, Chris will also share how the company is committed to following sustainable manufacturing practices, and how this can be a blueprint across the industry.

Join us to celebrate Engineers Week 2024. Our speaker will be Don Thomas, an astronaut, scientist, professional speaker, educator, and author of Orbit of Discovery about his STS-70 mission aboard space shuttle Discovery. A veteran of four flights, Don has spent 44 days in space and orbited the Earth nearly 700 times. Today, Don is helping to inform and excite the public about our future in space and preparing our next generation of scientists, engineers, and explorers for their missions in the future. The event will take place on February 22, 2024, at the Villa Milano Banquet & Conference Center (1630 Schrock Rd, Columbus, OH 43229). Registration begins at 11:00 AM and Lunch will be served at 11:50 AM.

An application of Fraction Fourier Transform is in the study of stochastic signals. In particular we observe speckles of imaging points from a SAR mapping over an annular ring. The model has eight targets arranged in a circular ring with a radius of 10 meters with a secondary ring at 50 meters. There is a center target of which an aircraft approaches. As such the signatures of both the aircraft and the speckles can at times be hard to distinguish, especially if the SAR imaging is smeared. We propose the fractional Fourier Transform as an alternative to standard Fourier Transform to filter the noisy signals and take consideration to smearing. As such we were able to isolate the signals of the targets, speckles, and aircraft. Also we see the S-method for matrix representation of signal can be incorporated with the Fratcional Fourier Transform as to generalizing the monostatic SAR model for one aircraft and a set of speckles and or targets.
