The Flow Component Testing Facilities (FCTF) consist of a number of dedicated facilities housed in a single location that are used to perform both standard and custom testing. SwRI engineers will be exhibiting the Institute’s CO2 SSSV testing capabilities, as well as the other FCTF valve testing capabilities, at the Valve World Americas Expo & Conference in Houston, Texas Oct. 13-14 at Booth no. 405.

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a constellation of satellites orbiting the Earth approximately 11,000 miles in space. The GPS satellites in this animation are not drawn to scale. However, their orbits and orientation to the Earth are approximately correct. GPS satellites are organized into six different orbital paths completely covering the Earth. Looking at the Earth top down from the North Pole, the six orbits are spaced at 60-degree intervals. Looking at the Earth from the equator, each orbit is moderately tilted at 50 degrees.

Irreversible, plastic deformation causes extended crystalline defects in the quantum material strontium titanate (SrTiO3) to organize into periodic structures, as revealed by neutron and x-ray scattering processes. These structures enhance electronic properties such as superconductivity.

The dark regions in this image show the “dirty white spots” sometimes found in nickel alloy engine components, anomalies that can lead to catastrophic failures. SwRI, under a new FAA contract, will develop new inspection methods to ensure anomalies like these are detected during the manufacturing process.
