: Tribal College Movement

In 1968, the first tribal college was created

by American Indiansfor American Indians

Diné College, Navajo Nation: 4 Decades of Self-Determination

37 TCUs – Over 88 Campus Sites in U.S.

Serving 65,000+ American Indians in 15 states through academic and

community education programs.

34 TCUs are chartered by their respective Tribal governments; 3 are

chartered by the U.S. government)

In the summer of 2010, a group of students and faculty at SKC began the work of designing a CubeSat, a 10 cm X 10 cm X 10 cm satellite with a mass that does not exceed 1 kg. It is named Nʷist Q́ʷiq́ʷay in the Salish language and is commonly referred to as BisonSat.

The primary objective of Nʷist Q́ʷiq́ʷay is educational, with a secondary objective of demonstrating the acquisition of targeted 100-meter or better resolution visible light imagery of the Earth

FES units store or release energy with the assistance of a drive unit and generator respectively. The polar moment of inertia increases the energy capacity through mass and diameter. It contributes as a linear factor. The rotational speeds which can reach 50K rpm in large systems contributes as the square of the speed.

Heavier mass and higher speed is a tradeoff due to dynamic force issues (centripetal forces, gyroscopic moments, imbalance).

FES is a strong complimentary as well as alternative technology to batteries without the drawbacks of extreme temperatures, shorter service life and on demand need.

Sandia’s contributions: Technical information on current FWES design methodologies and state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques.

The use of Basalt continuous fiber reinforcement matrix with a Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) resin carrier has excellent performance attributes in comparison to Kevlar/Thermoset materials

BMCC/GLCI has completed initial prototype work and testing as a suitable alternative and is refining the process in final panel manufacturing.

Work will be conducted with CCCC/Sioux Manufacturing Application: Electrical power systems require enclosures that are durable enough to withstand sudden impact localized forces, non-conductive, flame/ignition resistance, chemical/corrosion resistance and have environmental stability.

Sandia’s contributions: state-of-the-art information in advanced materials for high speed projectile protection

Impact Resistant Panels

17

Concrete foundations and lighter weight support structures are relying more on fiber reinforced composite materials.

Increasing the concrete strength range into the tensile region of loading combined with a reinforcement matrix that is impervious to chemical/corrosion attack and subsequent substrate fracture are highly desired.

Two prototype thermoplastic reinforcement components (composite rebar and flexible Geo-mesh) have been developed for concrete.

The materials selected for these were a low cost polypropylene resin and continuous fiber Basalt formulation.

BMCC/GLCI has extensive experience in light weighting applications of structures/support systems and will be engaging Navajo Tech in related R&D
