iii Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map Executive Summary

Asset mapping is a critical step in understanding the resources that the region can leverage to support integrated workforce and economic development initiatives. Every region has its own unique set of assets – both tangible and intangible – to call upon. The goal of asset mapping is to display industry, education/training and demographic data for the 10-county region and provide leaders and decision makers with an inventory of key resources that can be incorporated into the transformational development effort.

The Center for Economic Development and Business Research, W. Frank Barton School of Business, Wichita State University was contracted by the Kansas Department of Commerce to determine assets that are currently available to firms involved in the composite and advanced materials industry sector (fibers, resins, rubbers, plastics, etc.) in south central Kansas.

Definitions For the purposes of this asset map, the south central Kansas region will include the following ten counties: Butler, Cowley, Harper, Harvey, Kingman, Marion, McPherson, Reno, Sedgwick, and Sumner.

For the purposes of this asset map, composites are defined as engineered materials made by combining two or more dissimilar materials, such as fibers and resin, to create a product with exceptional structural properties not present in the original materials. The lightweight, high strength materials are a natural fit with aerospace, automotive manufacturing, medical devices (orthotics, etc.), wind turbines, marine applications, building and heavy construction infrastructure, etc.

Advanced materials are materials utilized in high-technology applications such as electronics, computers, fiber-optic systems, spacecraft, aircraft and military rocketry. Advanced materials are typically either traditional materials whose properties have been enhanced or newly developed, high-performance materials.

Regional Labor Market and Economic Landscape The Composites Kansas Labor Basin is comprised of 10 counties in South Central Kansas (Butler, Cowley, Harper, Harvey, Kingman, Marion, McPherson, Reno, Sedgwick and Sumner). According to the Census Bureau’s 2005 County Business Patterns, there are 19,122 business establishments in the 10-county area with 309,280 employees and a total annual payroll of $10.2 billion. The average annual pay for all industries ranges from a low of $19,870 in Marion County to a high of $35,181 in Sedgwick County.

1 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map

The civilian labor force in the 10-county area increased 2.1 percent from 2004 to 2007, with a 2007 annual average of 395,563 people. During that same time, the unemployment rate dropped 2 percentage points to 3.9 percent in 2007.

According to an October 2007 study by the Wichita State University (WSU) Center for Economic Development and Business Research, there are approximately 155,111 individuals in the Available Labor Pool1 (ALP) of the 10-county area. Below are some characteristics of that available labor pool:

• The study found more than 70,000 (or 46 percent of ALP) had experience in manufacturing/processing plants; more than 80,000 (52 percent of ALP) are willing to work in manufacturing/processing; and nearly 56,000 (36 percent of ALP) have manufacturing/processing experience and are willing to work in that field.

• Among employed ALP members, an estimated 5,733 are currently laboratory or medical technicians, computer technicians or programmers. Another 6,535 persons have previous employment in those fields, for a total of 12,267 persons with such experience.

• While 59 percent of the labor force as a whole has some college (education beyond high school), slightly more than 76 percent of the ALP has some college and almost 96 percent has at least a high school diploma. Among those with at least some college, 21 percent have a technical degree and 9 percent have a non-technical degree.

• A majority of ALP members report needing “no additional training” in: o Working in groups or interpersonal skills (80 percent) o Math (59 percent) o Writing (53 percent) Population Characteristics Population • The 2007 Composite Kansas WIRED Region population is estimated to be 746,009, and the 2012 population is projected to be 754,298, representing an average annual increase of 0.22 percent. • The population of the region has increased from 665,987 in 1990 to 730,371 in 2000. This increase represents an average annual increase of 0.97 percent. • Three regional counties, Butler, Harvey, and Sedgwick, are projected to increase in population over the next five years, McPherson County is projected to maintain a constant population and the remainder of the regional counties are projected to lose population. Migration • Fifty-five counties experienced net out-migration between 1990 and 2000.

1 The Available Labor Pool consists of workers who are currently not working but looking for full-time employment; currently employed (full- or part-time) and looking for other full-time employment; currently not working but willing to consider full-time employment for the right opportunity; and currently employed and not looking but willing to consider different full-time employment for the right opportunity.

2 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map • Three regional counties experienced net out-migration between 1990 and 2000. o Cowley, Harper, and Sumner • Three regional counties reported deaths exceeding births between 1990 and 2000. o Harper, Kingman and Marion Workforce • Early to Mid Career: Age 15 to 44 o The early to mid career population between the ages of 15- to 44-years of age has experienced a decline of 3.2 percent in the 10-county region between 2000 and 2006. o Butler County’s early to mid career population increased 4.8 percent. o All of the other regional counties experienced declining early to mid career populations. • Mid to Late Career Population: Age 45 to 64 o The mid to late career population between the ages of 45- to 64-years of age has experienced an increase of 19.3 percent in the 10-county region between 2000 and 2006. o All of the regional counties experienced an increase in the mid to late career population. • Workforce Age Population: Age 15 to 64 o The overall workforce population between the ages of 15- to 64-years has experienced an increase of 4.3 percent in the 10-county region between 2000 and 2006.

11 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map Regional Labor Market and Economic Landscape The Composites Kansas Labor Basin is comprised of 10 counties in South Central Kansas (Butler, Cowley, Harper, Harvey, Kingman, Marion, McPherson, Reno, Sedgwick and Sumner). The total 2006 population estimate of the area was 746,830, an increase of 2.3 percent over the 2000 census population. According to the Census Bureau’s 2005 County Business Patterns, there are 19,122 business establishments in the 10-county area with 309,280 employees and a total annual payroll of $10.2 billion. The average annual pay for all industries ranges from a low of $19,870 in Marion County to a high of $35,181 in Sedgwick County.

According to an October 2007 study by the Wichita State University (WSU) Center for Economic Development and Business Research, there are approximately 155,111 individuals in the Available Labor Pool4 (ALP) of the 10-county area. Below are some characteristics of that available labor pool:

• A majority of ALP members report needing “no additional training” in: o Working in groups or interpersonal skills (80 percent) o Math (59 percent) o Writing (53 percent)

The table below shows industry employment and the percentage change from 2002 to 2006. Total private employment increased 0.7 percent over the four-year period. A significant portion of private industry employment is in the manufacturing sector, nearly 25 percent, whereas 12.5 percent of national private industry employment works in manufacturing.

4 The Available Labor Pool consists of workers who are currently not working but looking for full-time employment; currently employed (full- or part-time) and looking for other full-time employment; currently not working but willing to consider full-time employment for the right opportunity; and currently employed and not looking but willing to consider different full-time employment for the right opportunity.

The greatest contributor to the decline in manufacturing employment since 1998 has been the impact of 9/11 on transportation equipment manufacturing, particularly in the Wichita MSA. The economy has still not totally recovered from the loss of approximately 13,000 jobs in that sector from 2001 to 2004.

Foreign trade is a positive influence on the labor market and economy of Wichita’s labor basin. According to the Kansas World Trade Center, export-supported jobs account for an estimated 6.5 percent of Kansas’ total private-sector employment or one of every 15 jobs. Nearly one-seventh of all manufacturing workers in Kansas depend on exports for their jobs. When applying these numbers to the Wichita labor basin, there are potentially more than 10,000 manufacturing jobs that might not exist without foreign trade, or a total of approximately 19,500 jobs across all industry sectors.

South Central Kansas has an established record of entrepreneurship, with many successful companies that were conceived and nurtured in the area. A partial list includes: Beech Aircraft (now Hawker Beechcraft Corp.), Cessna Aircraft, The Coleman Company, Koch Industries (world’s largest privately held company), Learjet (now Bombardier Learjet), Love Box Company, Pizza Hut, Rent-A-Center, and Sheplers Western Wear. The region has also recently

If a population grows, it is because more people are born than die and/or because more people are moving into an area than are moving out. If a population declines, the opposite must be true.

In general, non-metropolitan Kansas is losing population due to declining birth rates and high death rates resulting from a disproportionately large population of elderly residents. While 37 percent of the state’s population resides in a non-metropolitan county, 47 percent of the population over 65 years of age does so and 53 percent of people over the age of 85 live in non- metropolitan counties.5 Fifty-six counties experienced a greater number of deaths than births over this period.

Migration consists of the movements of people into or out of a county. Fifty-five counties experienced net out-migration between 1990 and 2000. Three regional counties experienced net out-migration and three regional counties reported deaths exceeding births between 1990 and 2000.

5 Metropolitan Statistical Areas have at least one urbanized area of 50,000 or more population, plus adjacent territory that has a high degree of social and economic integration with the core as measured by commuting ties. Micropolitan Statistical Areas – a new set of statistical areas – have at least one urban cluster of at least 10,000 but less than 50,000 people, plus adjacent territory that has a high degree of social and economic integration with the core as measured by commuting ties. Metropolitan and Micropolitan Statistical Areas are defined in terms of whole counties (or equivalent entities).

29 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map Composites and Advanced Materials The South Central Kansas region is one of the largest centers of composite aircraft component design and fabrication in the world. Companies such as Boeing, Cessna and Hawker Beechcraft have utilized these materials in aircraft for over 25 years, and recent technological advances are increasing the use of advanced materials and polymers in commercial and general aviation manufacturing. It is estimated the growth in composite structural aircraft components will be 14 percent per year over the next 20 years. While much of the demand for composites and advanced materials is driven by the aviation manufacturing cluster in South Central Kansas, these materials are being used in medical devices, machinery components, building materials, and other commercial applications. South Central Kansas has an opportunity, through this WIRED initiative, to become the global center for composite expertise.

A cluster in advanced materials and polymers is emerging in South Central Kansas, driven by the increased use of these engineered materials in the manufacture of both general and commercial aircraft. The region is already one of the largest centers in composite aircraft components design and fabrication; however, its usage could grow exponentially as a new generation of high- composite aircraft designs promises to dramatically accelerate the growth of the composites market, currently valued at more than $7 billion. According to AeroStrategy, the aerospace composites market will quadruple by 2026. The Age of Composites is dawning.10

11 The Available Labor Pool consists of workers who are currently not working but looking for full-time employment; currently employed (full- or part-time) and looking for other full-time employment; currently not working but willing to consider full-time employment for the right opportunity; and currently employed and not looking but willing to consider different full-time employment for the right opportunity.

31 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map Figure 7. Workforce Supply Chain: The Talent Pipeline

Future Talent Future talent in the workforce supply chain refers to students in K-12 programs. In addition to providing a safe learning environment, where all students can acquire the skills and knowledge necessary for success in a global community, schools must also provide career preparation. This can be accomplished by promoting careers in emerging and high growth sectors and encouraging an expectation of lifelong learning to update and upskill their personal skills and knowledge. Furthermore, the business sector can assist in future talent development through providing summer jobs, internships, job shadowing/volunteer opportunities, tours, etc.

In the 2007-2008 school year, 371 regional K-12 schools enrolled 138,556 students: 71,615 students are enrolled in 236 regional elementary schools, 24,761 middle school/junior high students attend 56 regional middle school/junior high schools, and 42,180 high school students attend 79 regional high schools.

Preventing future workforce flight is a regional priority. Studies are being conducted to encourage retention of emerging talent through promotion of family, friends, jobs and opportunities, entertainment and community involvement.

Talent Available in the Nearterm Talent available in the near-term are involved in training and educational programs and will become available to the workforce after completing their program of study/training. These workers attend university and college programs, technical or trade school programs, and

32 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map apprenticeship or credential programs. Retaining these emerging workers is also a regional priority. Early recruitment of these candidates is paramount to retaining this talent for regional businesses.

Data reported in Table 23 and Table 24 are from the Wichita Business Journal. Annually the Journal ranks the top 20 institutions based on fall semester headcount. The institutions listed in the tables below are within the Composites Kansas Region.

Approximately 3.44 percent of the regional population age 18-years and older are enrolled in these community and technical colleges.

Overall, more than 7.5 percent of the regional population age 18-years and older were enrolled in these post secondary institutions in the fall of 2007

Talent Currently Available Talent currently available to employers includes persons not currently in the workforce and those who are unemployed. Another group of available workers are employees who are underemployed12 and those who are willing to separate from their current employer.

Persons not in the labor force included people who choose not to work and people who have become discouraged and are no longer looking for work. There are numerous reasons that

12 Underemployment describes the employment of workers with high skill levels in low-wage jobs that do not require such abilities. For example, someone with a college degree may be tending bar or driving a cab or being a cashier. Alternatively, a skilled machinist may be working at a fast-food outlet.

33 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map potential workers become discouraged such as a skill mismatch, difficult personal/family situations, no perceived opportunities, etc. An additional talent pool includes retirees, homemakers, public assistance recipients, people with disabilities, and the long-term unemployed. Community support structures such as child care, elder care, and reverse commute13 programs may provide the needed support for underutilized talent to return to the workforce.

Kansas Post-Secondary Completers of Engineering and Engineering Technologies/Technicians Programs The emerging composites and advanced materials workforce is captured by tracking post- secondary completers15 who received training in engineering and engineering technologies/technicians programs.

Research has shown that businesses value close proximity with post-secondary institutions that can supply a trained workforce. At a later stage, stakeholders should consider what programs to add in order to bring supply in line with industry demand.

Data for completers of post-secondary programs were accessed from the Nation Center for Educational Statistics. Awards and degrees conferred by program were collected for the 2003- 2004, 2004-2005 and 2005-2006 school years. The awards and degrees analyzed are included in Table 25 below. Classification of Instructional Programs Codes (CIP Codes) in bold text reported Kansas completers in the years analyzed; all others had zero completers in the years analyzed. The number of Kansas completers at various award and degree levels can be found in Table 26 and Table 27.

13 Reverse commuting occurs where residents in the inner city travel daily to workplaces in the suburbs. Public transportation or employer provided transportation may be needed by some employees that are currently available. 14 The Available Labor Pool consists of workers who are currently not working but looking for full-time employment; currently employed (full- or part-time) and looking for other full-time employment; currently not working but willing to consider full-time employment for the right opportunity; and currently employed and not looking but willing to consider different full-time employment for the right opportunity. 15 Completers are students who receive a certificate of completion or earn a degree in the reporting year.

Registered Apprenticeship Programs Registered Apprenticeship Purpose Kansas Works Registered Apprenticeship is a voluntary, industry-driven employment and training system that prepares individuals for occupations that require a broad range of high-level skills and related instruction. It is formal career training and full-time employment. Registered Apprenticeship is designed to produce skilled workers who are fully competent in all aspects of an occupation. The apprentice learns “how to” as a wage earning employee through on-the-job learning under the direction of a highly skilled craft worker/mentor. The “why” is learned through related technical instruction.

Target Industries include: advanced manufacturing, building and construction, service, government, health care, transportation, information technology, aerospace, security, energy and utilities.

16 Mechatronics teaches the design, building and maintaining of equipment that combines electronics, mechanics, pneumatics, hydraulics and computer controls.

On December 18, 2003, the first day of the second century of flight, the Federal Aviation Administration announced the initiation of a Center of Excellence in Advanced Materials, also to be known as JAMS (the FAA Joint Advanced Materials and Structures Center of Excellence). The center is a joint award to two separate consortiums: the Center of Excellence for Advanced Materials in Transport Aircraft Structures (AMTAS) led by the University of Washington and the Center of Excellence for Composites & Advanced Materials (CECAM) led by Wichita State University.

47 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map The FAA’s purpose in establishing this center was to create a focal point for understanding and characterizing advanced materials intended for aviation structures. The main interest of the FAA was to understand the safety and certification nuances of these advanced materials.

Wichita State University (WSU) National Institute for Aviation Research (NIAR) is both a leader and a partner in the validation and quality assurance of composites and advanced materials with one of the few state-of-the art aviation research centers in the United States. The National Center for Advanced Materials Performance and the Center for Excellence for Composites and Advanced Materials leverage their location within the “Air Capital of the World” and integrate university, government and business entities in cooperative efforts to advance technologies.

Pittsburgh State University, Kansas Polymer Research Center (KPRC) is a KTEC Center of Excellence. It was established in 1994 to carry out research in the polymer/plastics area and to complement the educational program offerings in the College of Technology. The PSU Polymer Lab is primarily engaged in applied research. The mission of the Polymer R&D Lab is to help clients solve development and production problems in the field of polymers and plastics.

Research Funded by the United States Federal Government The U.S. Federal Government spends many billions of dollars every year on research and development (R&D). RaDiUS, which stands for "Research and Development in the United States," is the first database that tracks in virtually real-time all of the research and development activities and resources of the government. RaDiUS is the most comprehensive database of information on the Research and Development (R&D) activities that are funded by the United States Federal Government. RaDiUS data are useful for benchmarking technologies, identifying

49 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map transferable technologies, finding potential R&D partners, profiling R&D activities and optimizing R&D investments.

The database was searched with the key words of composite, advanced materials, polymer. The search resulted in forty (40) research hits for the state of Kansas between 2000 and 2006. Average fiscal year funding for these funded research projects was $84,360; many awards are funded for multiple years. Due to suppression of data, it is difficult to estimate the total amount of federal funding received within the state.

Six awards were granted to business and industry and 36 awards were granted to public educational institutions. Funding was provided by DOE, DOT, HHS, NASA, NSF, and USDA. The table below outlines the recipients of the grants. Appendix G provides details for each research award.

50 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map Composites and Advanced Materials Firms Composites and Advanced Materials Firms Survey Summary • Respondent firms forecast employment growth to increase at an average rate of 3.7 percent annually between 2007 and 2010. This equates to an additional workforce of 1,600 annually, with additional demand for replacement employment.

• The survey identifies the business environment strengths as four-year colleges and universities, cluster synergies, cost of real estate and quality of communication infrastructures. Business environment challenges include governmental regulations, workforce, and financial capital.

• Nearly all of the survey factors for regional norms and attitudes received a positive survey response. The weakest factor identified was limited interaction between artists and business people.

The Center for Economic Development and Business Research, W. Frank Barton School of Business, Wichita State University was contracted by the Kansas Department of Commerce to provide an asset map of the Composites Kansas Workforce Innovation in Regional Economic Development (WIRED) Region to determine the composites and advanced materials assets within the ten-county region.17

The purpose of the Survey of Advanced Materials and Composites Firms was to provide a deeper understanding of the key networks and cultural attitudes that shape the south central Kansas regional economy and indicate the gap areas that require further investment and provide a base line by which to judge future progress toward regional prosperity in the composites and advanced materials industry.

The data reported in this analysis were collected between March 17, 2008, and April 16, 2008.

At the time of the survey, the Center estimates that the 88 identified regional composites and advanced materials firms employ between 44,000 and 45,000 employees.18 Nineteen firms representing 38,171 employees responded to the survey. This represents 21.6 percent of the

17 The full Survey report can be accessed on the Center’s website www.wichita.edu/cedbr. 18 Employment estimates were not available for all firms identified in the cluster.

51 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map identified firms and 85.8 percent of the estimated composites and advanced materials employment.

Nine participating firms had less than 100 employees, five firms reported between 100 and 300 employees and the five remaining firms reported more than 2,000 employees. Outcomes of the survey have a response bias toward the larger employers; small and midsized firms are underrepresented in the survey.

Section 1: Business Environment Nearly 80 percent of the firms responded positively to how they would currently rate the region overall as a place for their business to succeed. Only 21.1 percent of the firms stated that the region was a “fair location” and zero percent of the firms indicated that the region was a “poor location” for their business to succeed.

The top five Business Environment factors and the lowest five Business Environment factors identified in the survey are listed in the table below.

Index values were created for each business environment factor. The index value is a weighted average of survey responses. The index can range in value from zero to 100. An index of 50 or greater indicates that respondents are generally positive about the business factor. An index of less than 50 indicates that respondents are generally negative about the business factor. The distance from 50 is an indication of the strength of respondents’ perceptions, either negative or positive, about the business factor.

Section 4: Demographics

Using data from the Manufacturer’s News database and the Wichita Business Journal, the Center estimated that the 88 identified regional composites and advanced materials firms employ between 44,000 and 45,000 employees.19 Nineteen firms representing 38,171 employees responded to the survey. This represents 21.6 percent of the identified firms and 85.8 percent of the estimated composites and advanced materials employment. Outcomes of the survey have a response bias toward the larger employers; small and midsized firms are underrepresented in the survey.

Table 34. Employment of Respondent Firms What is the approximate number of people employed by your organization in the region? 12/2007

Less than 100 employees 9 47.4% 100 to 299 employees 5 26.3% 300 to 2,000 employees 0 0.0% Over 2,000 employees 5 26.3% 19 100.0%

Nine of the responding firms listed aerospace as their primary industry focus, eight primarily identified with manufacturing, one firm provides business/consulting service and one firm provides wholesale/resale/distribution services.

All firms reported sales regions located beyond south central Kansas. More than half of the firms surveyed state that more than 90 percent of their sales are to customers beyond the region and 63.2 percent of the firms export products or services outside the United States.

Regional composites and advanced materials firms are primarily involved in aeronautic and aerospace applications, but many have diversified application sectors. The region participates in the defense/security, automotive, marine/boat building, railway/mass transit, corrosion resistant products, medical electronics, wind energy, and consumer goods industries.

A wide variety of business processes are executed by the regional firms. These include hand lay- up, vacuum bag/autoclave, resin transfer molding, spray-up and bulk molding compounds. A complete list can be found in the table below.

19 Employment estimates were not available for all firms identified in the cluster.

*Total composites and advanced materials respondents reporting employment in 2002, 2005, and 2007. Kansas and U.S. employment data are from BLS total nonfarm employment.

56 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map Respondent firms forecast employment growth to increase at an average rate of 3.7 percent annually between 2007 and 2010. This equates to an additional workforce of 1,600 annually, with additional demand for replacement employment.

The survey identifies the business environment strengths as four-year colleges and universities, cluster synergies, cost of real estate and quality of communication infrastructures. Business environment challenges include governmental regulations, workforce, and financial capital.

The survey identifies the region’s capacity to innovate strengths in cluster synergies and all levels of post-secondary education. Innovation challenges are entrepreneurial assets - - financial (banks, angel investors, venture capital) and business incubators.

Nearly all of the survey factors for regional norms and attitudes received a positive survey response. The weakest factor identified was limited interaction between artists and business people.

However, CEDBR cannot guarantee the accuracy of this list, as it is dependent on the accuracy of our sources when they were published. Any or all data about individual companies may have changed since publication in these sources. A complete directory of all Kansas aviation firms is available by request from CEDBR.

This proposal links the practic al problem of peptide and protein formulation in polymer matrices for controlled -release applications to the basic mechanistic science involved in degradation r eactions in these unusual media. In the first grant period the research has addr essed the influence of polymer matrix incorporation on deamidation at Asn "hot s pots", one of the most common routes of degradation of peptide and protein pharm aceuticals. Studies proposed for this competing continuation will extend this r esearch to address the effects of peptide and protein secondary structure on dea midation in polymers. In addition, since the findings to date suggest that inte ractions with polymers may stabilize peptides against deamidation in the solid s tate, the proposed studies will investigate deamidation of chargedpeptides in h ydrated solid formulations containing ionizable polymers, a system in which stab ilization by ionic interactions is anticipated. Finally, the proposed studies w ill examine the effect of polymer matrix incorporation on oxidation reactions of peptides and proteins, a second class of degradation reaction of considerable p ractical importance in protein formulation. The principal investigator's experi ence in the development and characterization of polymeric drug delivery systems will be supplemented by collaborators and co-investigators with expertise in the deamidation and oxidation of peptides and proteins in solution and solid phases , in mechanistic bioorganic chemistry, in the biophysical characterization of pr otein structure and interactions, and in theoretical approaches to reactivity in solution and solid states. :: KEYWORDS: amidation /deamidation chemical stability drug delivery system pharmacokinetics slow release drug polymer intermolecular interaction oxidation protein degradation protein structure function proteolysis ::

105 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map Start/End Dates Award/Task Abstract TITLE: CAREER: Evaluation of Impact Damage under Service Conditions of Fiber Composite Pipes :: SHORT DESCR: CAREER: EVALUATION OF IMPACT DAMAGE UNDER SERVICE CONDITIONS OF FIBER COMPOSITE PIPES :: LONG DESCR: This research program will apply analysis, nondestructive and experimental techniques in order to develop an understanding of impact damage in composite pipes under service conditions. The first phase will consist on the development of a finite element model that will include the effects of internal pressure as indicated by the service conditions of the structure. Endurance prediction models, of the composite after impact, will be developed and verified with experimental testing. The second phase will consist of a testing program with different levels of impact energy and internal pressure ratios on fiber reinforced composite pipes. During the experimental phase, nondestructive evaluation techniques such as acoustic emission, modal analysis and acousto-ultrasonics, will be applied to collect information about the mechanisms associated with failure induced by long term loading after impact. The final phase will consist on the analytical reduction of the experimental results for comparison with predictions from phase one and, the necessary adjustments to the models. This program will contribute to the understanding of the mechanical behavior of fiber composite materials, the ability to evaluate the significance of unexpected damage, and to the knowledge necessary for reliable implementation of composite materials in offshore structures. ::

In direct writing, an ink filament capable of maintaining its extruded shape is deposited layer-by-layer to build up the desired structure. The piezoelectric NPR scaffolds will generate a nonlinear electromechanical response that will lead to a robust, highly deformable structure. The research challenges include design, printing and co-sintering of metallic and ceramic elements in a complex structure and characterization of the electromechanical properties of the device. Scientifically, this research will lead to directional actuating/sensing devices enabled by the utilization of cutting edge direct write manufacturing and novel structural design. Broad impact applications include dynamic filtration, biomedical devices, sensors, and actuators. Graduate and undergraduate students will gain education ranging from colloidal chemistry to electromechanical characterization. ::

Busch CHE-9815321 Title: Catalytic Oxidations in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Abstract This award is made to Dr. Daryle H. Busch, Chemistry Department, and Dr. Bala Subramaniam, Department of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering, of the University of Kansas for investigation for oxidation catalysts in supercritical carbon dioxide (sc CO2). The award is in the Technology for Sustainable Environment component of the EPA/NSF Partnership for Environmental Research, and support is provided by the MPS Inorganic, Bioinorganic, and Organometallic Chemistry Program and Office of Multidisciplinary Activities. Olefin epoxidation, functional group oxidation and bleach enhancers will be studied. The advantage of sc CO2 as a reaction medium is that it is non-toxic, inexpensive, and environmentally benign compared to organic solvents often used in the reactions of interest. Emphasis will be placed on modifying the structure of transition metal catalysts in order to increase their solubility in sc CO2. Alternatively, fluorocarbon polymer supports or macroporous templated polymers will be investigated. Included among the metal systems to be studied are manganese complexes; rhenium oxides; salen derivatives of cobalt, iron, and chromium; and ruthenium porphyrins. Supercritical oxidation kinetics will be performed in batch reactors under well-defined process conditions. High volume chemicals such as ethylene glycol and propylene glycol are formed in epoxidation reactions while selective functional group oxidation is important in manufacture of many fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals, and bleach catalysts have potential application in sc CO2 dry-cleaning businesses. In this project, alternative routes to many widely used oxidation reactions will be studied and optimized for use in the benign solvent sc CO2. ::

Heart failure (HF) affects 5 million Americans, with costs estimated at $28.8 billion annually. Yet, in 2004, only 31% of HF patients received even the basic JCAHO- recommended discharge education. Public Health can be approved by intensive HF discharge and post- hospital follow-up programs. Thus, a practical intervention was created that combines HF patient group clinic appointments/multidisciplinary discussion sessions and structured self-management with patient checklist diaries, algorithms and telephone reinforcement. The intervention is based on American College of Cardiology national guidelines, emphasizing patient self-management and the Healthcare Improvement Initiative for Idealized Clinical Practices. To assure all patients in the study have the equal and nationally recommended HF education each subject is provided with our HF videotape series (produced under SBIR 1R43AG). The specific aims are to test effects of the intervention on the composite primary endpoint of rehospitalization or death andsecondary endpoints of health services use, cost efficiency, patient health status and HF quality of life. Also measured are patient HF knowledge, self- management behavior, preparedness for home care, participation with professionals and timeliness of symptom-reporting. This is a randomized clinical trial with 1 treatment and 1 standard care (control) group. Each group will have 92 HF patients, total sample of n=184. Multivariate linear mixed model analyses will be used to test effects of the intervention over 12 months. Traditional cost analysis and innovative cost- efficiency Data Envelopment Analysis will be used to compare group intervention costs. Comparisons of costs to other HF programs will be reported. The long-term goals are to improve HF self-management and timely reporting ofsymptoms using safe and cost-efficient and practical interventions. The group clinic appointments with discussion sessions support and engage patients in self- management (checklist diaries/symptom reporting algorithms), strengthen their HF home management and reduce overall rehospitalization rates...... :: KEYWORDS: telemedicine edema clinical trial cardiovascular disorder education self care tachycardia heart failure hospital utilization human subject videotape /videodisc group counseling mathematical model human mortality dyspnea therapy compliance human therapy evaluation functional ability quality of life clinical research behavioral /social science research tag health services research tag cost effectiveness educational resource design /development weight gain ::

The Phase I project optimized the PLA/starch formulation and demonstrated that a thin plastic film could be processed on small scale film manufacturing equipment. The produced film was tested for mechanical and exterior exposure properties for use as an agricultural mulching film. The objective of the Phase II research project is to begin to scale up the polymeric blending process to production style and sized compounding equipment. PLA/starch formulation optimization work will continue to increase film strength, flexible and exterior performance properties. The next objective will be to produce a thin film product on a full-size film manufacturing processing line. The film produced from this objective will be applied to full-size soil test plots by standard mulch film application equipment and methods. The mulch films on a soil testplots will be monitored for mulching properties during typical growing conditions. Agricultural mulch films are used for the production of vegetables and fruits. Thin plastic films (typically polyeth ylene) are spread along the rows of plants at the beginning of the growing season. Holes are made in the films to plant the seeds or seedlings. The use of mulch films speeds the ripening of crops, conserves moisture and fertilizer, and inhibits weed growth, fungus infection and insect infestation. At the end of the growing season (generally 3-5 months) the film, contaminated with dirt and vegetation, must be collected, transported and disposed. As the use of mulching films becomes more common, the disposal of the polyethylene film becomes a significant waste problem. The Phase I R&D project determined that a degradable agricultural mulch film from a poly(lactic acid)/starch blend could be produced and mechanical and exterior exposure field tests were conducted. The Phase II research program will focus on moving the polymer blending process to full-scale manufacturing equipment and procedures, optimizing the film manufacturing parameters and conduct large scale product field testing. Film product will be produced on a full- scale manufacturing line and the film tested for initial and aged mechanical properties, soil plot field application and exterior exposure performance. The development of a truly degradable mulching film will reduce labor and disposal costs for agricultural producers. The PLA/starch polymeric blend utilizes 99% biobased materials and its use will displace petroleum derived polyethylene mulch films. :: KEYWORDS: mulch film poly(lactic acid) starch biodegradable ::

Chitin is the second most abundant biological polymer after celluloseIt is widely distributed in arthropods, fungi and nematodes. Although the first benzoylphenylurea chitin synthesis inhibitor (diflubenzuron) was introduced to control various insect pests about thre e decades ago, the exact mechanism of action of this class of compounds has also not been resolved. Our long-term goal is to develop improved insect growth regulators that target chitin metabolism in pest insects. Our specific aims of this project are to use the common malaria mosquito (Anopheles quadrimaculatus) as a model arthropod to: 1) determine specific effects of diflubenzuron on chitin biosynthesis and deposition; 2) clone and characterize each of two complete cDNAs encoding two different chitin synthases that play a central role in chitin biosynthesis; and 3) functionally analyze eachof two chitin synthase genes in cuticular and peritrophic matrix chitin biosynthesis. This study is expected to: 1) shed new light on chitin synthetic system in arthropods; 2) help understanding the mechanism of chitin synthesis inhibition and regulation; and 3) help identifying vulnerable points of chitin biosynthesis and regulation for developing novel insecticides. Since an interruption to anystep of chitin biosynthesis and formation could kill the insect, a better understanding of the insect chitin synthetic system and the mechanism of inhibition could result in a discovery of novel targ et sites for developing effective, safe and environmentally sound insecticides. :: KEYWORDS: arthropod benzoylphenylurea chitin chitin synthase chitin synthesis inhibitor cuticle diflubenzuron insecticide mosquito peritrophic matrix ::

The project stresses on conducting both fundamental and applied research in the area of extrusion processing, and is geared towards benefiting Kansas extrusion equipment manufacturing and allied industries, the food and feed processing industry,and growers. The overall objective is to improve the extrusion process and utilize a wide range of raw materials to generate new products with desired structural, mechanical and physico-chemical attr ibutes. The first objective strives to answer basic questions on the dynamics of structure formation in foams. The other four objectives are more application oriented and involve development of new products like pre-cooked flours, biodegradable nano-composite packaging films, starch-based encapsulates and specialty aquatic feed. This project will lead to the ability for a priori design of food products with unique textures and formulations. Other major outcomes of this study include a new and non-invasive methodology for measuring the microstructural features of food foams, reduced dependency on petroleum for making packaging materials and a novel encapsulation technology for organic chemicals. Successful completion of this project will potentially result in enhanced demand for Kansas agricultural commodities like wheat and corn for production of high-value products, and thus serve the interests of Kansas growers.

The research proposed in this proposal includes four tasks: 1. Generation of polymer network and nanotube reinforced polymer network A polymer network will be created by an off-lattice random walk. By placing pre-embedded nanotubes inside the material domain, one can generate a nanotube reinforced polymer network. The polymer network or the nanotube-reinforced network will then be relaxed by using force relaxation or Metropolis energy minimization processes. 2. Development of nano-scale finite elements Two nano-scale finite elements will be developed: the chemical bond element and the van der Waal element. This will enable us to model interactions between chemically bonded atoms and between chemically unbonded atoms. This new approach permits direct visualization of the nano-scale response, such as stretching and bending of both chemical and van der Waal bonds during macro-scale deformation. 3. Development of nano-scale element meshes for polymer networks and carbon nanotubes Nano-scale finite element meshes will be developed for polymer networks and carbon nanotubes. Polymer chains are modeled as chemical bond element chains. Nanotubes are modeled as three-dimensional chemical bond element structures. Interactions between polymer chains, between a polymer chain and a nanotube, between nanotubes and between all other unbonded atoms are modeled by van der Waal elements. 4. Stiffness and strength of polymer network and nanotube reinforced polymer network Force-displacement curves will be calculated for polymer networks and nanotube reinforced polymer networks. Thus, the modulus can be derived. If the external force reaches a certain level, van der Waal bonds begin to break. As a result, deformation is irreversible even if the load is removed. The polymer shows a non-elastic response to external load. Failed van der Waal elements are removed from the system and new van der Waal elements are added to the system in each loading step. This process continues until the polymer network cannot resist more load, i.e. failure occurs. ::

Over 2000

111 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map species of termites are known at present and many of them occur in the tropics. Some termite species are considered pests in the United States and other parts of the world because they damage houses and crops. However, a vast majority of termites perform an extremely valuable role in ecological communities. Dead wood (e.g., fallen logs in forests) cannot be digested by most organisms because it contains cellulose, a polymer that requires special enzymes to break it down. If the wood is not broken down, the nutrients trapped in it will not be released into the soil for use by other animals and plants. Termites are by the far the most important of the wood degraders because of their numbers and their ability to produce the enzyme cellulase, the enzyme needed to break down cellulose. It is fair to say that many tropical rain forests would not exist as we know them but for the action of termites. In addition to this role, termites are interesting from an evolutionary perspective because they are social insects. Despite their obvious importance, little research has been done on termite evolution, relative to, for example, other social insects such as ants, bees and wasps. The proposed studies are an attempt to understand the evolutionary relationships among different groups (families, subfamilies and genera) of termites. We will use DNA sequencing technology to infer the evolutionary relationships among the various termite groups. The existing proposals for such relationships are either based on outdated methodology or on unreliable characters and therefore need reexamination. The resulting phylogenetic tree will be an invaluable resource for future evolutionary studies on termites because various traits pertaining to behavior, development, etc., can be mapped onto the tree. The proposed research will lead to a better understanding of the evolution of a large group of eusocial insects and their life histories. :: KEYWORDS: Other Applications NEC ::

113 Composites Kansas WIRED Asset Map POLYELECTROLYTE-SURFACTANT COMPOSITES :: LONG DESCR: Professor Daniel Higgins of Kansas State University is supported by the Analytical and Surface Chemistry Program and the Solid State Chemistry Program to develop amphiphilic, ionic, surface-active di-imides to be used along with common polyelectrolytes in the preparation of composite photoactive thin films. The experiments involve near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) for resolution of the typically 50-100 nm aggregates. Multiphoton-excited fluorescence anisotropy measurements (MPEFM) are used to study chromophore organization. Dynamical versions of these two experiments provide information about the rates of charge carrier generation and migration. Film morphology and other data about the bulk materials are studied using small-angle X-ray scattering and atomic force microscopy. The films may ultimately be useful in organic photoconductors and photovoltaics. Further development of this class of materials promises to make available display and energy technologies, for example solar cells, that are flexible, moldable and self-healing. ::

By quantitatively simulating the absolute resonance Raman intensities and optical spectra of these species in solution, the PI will experimentally determine the effect of solvent environment on the structures of both the ground and lowest excited electronic states of the molecules. Neural networks will be tried for fitting experimental data to models. The molecules will also be studied embedded in polymer matrices at 5K using single molecule emission spectroscopy. It is important to be able to quantify the relation of optical and nonlinear optical responses to solvent effects, if these molecular structures are to be incorporated into polymer matrices to fabricate devices. This work will improve our ability to convert sophisticated spectral data into predictive models for new optical materials. Optical materials are needed for advances in optical computing and communications. :: KEYWORDS: Other Applications NEC ::

Enhancements of these properties may be realized by combining these materials together to create compositional heterostructures. The main objectives of this research are: (a) to develop process conditions capable of producing single and multiple thin layers combining both materials with controlled stoichiometry and impurity concentrations by chemical vapor deposition; (b) to identify the types and density of crystalline defects present in both the bulk of the thin films and those caused by interfaces between materials; and (c) to investigate the electrical, optical, and thermal properties of base semiconductors and their composite structures. This award supports collaboration between Kansas State University (film growth), SUNY-SB (synchrotron, TEM characterization) and Bristol University (Raman, optical and ellipsometric characterization) on the synthesis of films of B12As2 and B4C and their subsequent characterization using a range of structural and spectroscopic methods. The compositional limits to deviations from stoichiometry and their effects on the mechanical and thermal properties will also be studied. During exchanges between institutes, students will learn the capabilities and limitations of the materials synthesis and characterization techniques, and to appreciate the context of their work in the project as a whole. The outreach programs supported by this award will build on existing efforts and should offer opportunities for better exposure to materials research for students.

When submicron-strip lateral epitaxial overgrowth is employed, relaxation of excess strain at the mesa edges may dominate, resulting in fewer dislocations above the window region.

E-beam lithography patterning and plasma dry etching to create wavelength-scale photonic structures and devices will be studied. Unique properties of III-nitrides make them very attractive for the generation, guiding, and switching of light, and new architectures for integrating III-nitride photonic components (e.g., resonators, waveguides, emitters, detectors, etc) onto single chips will be explored to lay the foundation for achieving integrated photonic circuits based on III-nitrides for a wide range of ap-plications. 3) Deep UV time-resolved nano-optical studies.

Abstract of proposed research Ivan Blank Under this award the investigator will study certain free boundary problems that provide simple models of situations that arise in materials science. One problem is that of finding the optimal placement of a subregion of given volume and different density so that the smallest eigenvalue of an associated operator is minimized. This arises in the study of composite materials and we will study the properties of the interfaces between the two materials for this optimal arrangement. Another problem is that of modeling the behavior of a slow viscous fluid moving between 2 plates and driven by injection through a hole in the upper plate. This is a model for a number of situations in engineering and the diffusion of chemicals in cancerous tumors. Here we are interested in analyzing the moving boundary and its possible changes in topology. The analysis of these free boundary problems provides information about the interfaces between two materials. It is of importance to describe the possible mathematical phenomenology of these interfaces including their singularities and motion. ::

The network structure will be varied by varying the type of vegetable oils, the type and the content of hydroxy groups in the vegetable oil-based polyols, and the type of isocyanates. The main part of the project will involve polyol preparation from vegetable oils. The second part will involve polyurethane materials (cast resins and rigid foams) preparation and mechanical and electrical testing, along with studies on structure-property relationships. Agricultural products are a source of many valuable chemicals. Vegetable oils have a number of excellent properties, which could be utilized in producing valuable polymeric materials. They can be transformed into polyols for general polyurethane use. Polyurethanes are a group of polymeric materials with many applications. Their current consumption exceeds 2.4 million tons per year in the U.S. Replacing petrochemical raw materials with renewable resources such as vegetable oils is of significant economic, environmental and strategic importance, particularly in USA - the world largest producer of vegetable oils. One of the basic problems in using raw materials of vegetable origin, such as oils, is that their structure varies more than that ofsynthetic chemicals. This is reflected in the variability of structure and properties the polymer products based on vegetable oils. The objective of the project is to study the effect of polyurethane network structure on properties of two gruops of materials: rigid foams and cast resins. The network structure will be varied by varying the type of oils, the type and content of hydroxyl groups in t he polyols, and the type of isocyanates. The oils to be used will include commercial vegetable oils such as soybean, corn, canola, rapeseed, olive, linseed, safflower, sunflower, peanut, cottonseed, and palm oils, as well as model triglycerides. The effect of polyurethane structure on physical, mechanical and electrical properties will be studied.

The mathematical part consists of non-standard spectral problems for the periodic Maxwell operator and some of its scalar counterparts. The aim of the proposed research is to develop novel analytic and numerical methods of analysis of frequency spectra depending on geometric and physical characteristics of the band-gap material. In particular, it is planned to develop new asymptotic models of the problem in 2D and 3D, to study numerically and analytically the asymptotic models for different geometries of PBG materials in 2D and 3D, to study relations between spectral properties of photonic crystals and of other mesoscopic physical systems, to study novel possibilities of localization of light, to study geometries that promise to open large spectral gaps, and to obtain new analytic results about effects caused by localized impurities. Photonic band-gap materials, often referred to as photonic crystals, have attracted a lot of attention since the idea was suggested in 1987. A photonic crystal is an artificial composite optical material that is an optical analog of a semiconductor. The main property of interest is existence of a range of frequencies (``colors") of light that cannot propagate in this medium. It is expected that creation of such a material would bring about a technological revolution in optics, laser technology, computing, information transmission, and other areas. Significant increase in efficiency of laser devices, highly efficient planar antennas, optics protecting against enemy's laser beams, perfect mirrors, laser diodes, memories, switches, and lossless optical information transmission lines are among numerous applications.
