Abstract: An additively manufactured heat transfer device is disclosed, including an enclosure portion with outer walls. The outer walls contain an inner channel configured to direct a flow of coolant fluid. The heat transfer device further includes a fluid intake port and a fluid outtake port, each connected to the first inner channel. The fluid intake port is configured to direct a flow of coolant fluid through an outer wall of the enclosure portion into the inner channel, and the fluid outtake port is configured to direct a flow of coolant fluid through an outer wall of the enclosure portion out of the inner channel. The inner channel is defined by internal walls, and the enclosure portion and the internal walls form a single additively manufactured unit.

Abstract: An additively manufactured antenna device is disclosed, including a base portion and a body portion. The body portion is attached to the base portion and includes a lattice stiffening structure configured to eliminate secondary printing support.

Abstract: An antenna device is disclosed, including a cavity structure having a floor portion and a perimeter wall portion connected to the floor portion. A dipole structure extends upward from a center region of the floor portion inside the cavity structure. At least one of the wall portion and the dipole structure has an opening small enough relative to an expected radio frequency wavelength to avoid affecting antenna performance.

Abstract: A radio frequency filter apparatus is disclosed, including an elongate hollow body portion having an inner side and an outer side. The apparatus further includes an iris structure on the inner side of the body portion and a stiffening structure on the outer side of the body portion. The stiffening structure is aligned with the iris structure.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a vehicle control surface includes generating, using an electronic controller, a three-dimensional plan for the vehicle control surface. The three-dimensional plan includes, at least, non-vehicular support structure dimensions, for a non-vehicular support structure, and skin dimensions for a skin. The method further includes configuring the dimensions of the non-vehicular support structure based on build environment characteristics associated with an additive manufacturing process of the control surface. The additive manufacturing process is based on the three-dimensional plan. The method further includes fabricating the vehicle control surface, using the additive manufacturing process, based on the three-dimensional plan.
