Kevin Dooley is responsible for the cooperative development of inventions and design solutions. He is also responsible for profit maximization and cash flow. Kevin oversees all technical aspects of the business including, intellectual property development, the procurement and production of demonstration units & beta models. Kevin also coordinates professional service providers including IP Patent consultants, legal & business consultants, and communications consultants.
Kevin brings 40 years of technical problem solving experience from the aircraft engine design & development industry (Pratt & Whitney Canada Inc.), Kevin’s more than 150 issued patents in 6 different disciplines are evidence of expertise and experience in new technology development and successful patenting strategies. Kevin is the lead inventor of the patent pending CEPE (Centrifugal Electrostatic Precipitation Extraction) Process. The majority of the previous inventions were developed specifically to solve difficult technical problems related to various aspects of aircraft gas turbine engine products, ground water analysis, infrasound and motion sickness prevention technologies. Many other patents granted in area’s involving high speed electrical machines for use inside gas turbine engines, engine vibration and noise reduction using destructive standing wave techniques as well as more electric aircraft engine technologies.
Kevin exercised an option to an early retirement from Pratt & Whitney Canada (P&WC) from the position of Fellow Emerging Technologies, in April 2013. Kevin’s initial technical education was in England at the Croydon Polytechnic College where he studied Electronics Technology under an apprenticeship program; supplemental mathematical studies were completed at Concordia University in Montreal under a mature student program. Many supplemental courses in Physics, Mathematics and Electromagnetics, have been followed independently over the 40 years of employment with P&WC and more recently in Chemistry and thermodynamics for application in more recent work involving a new non Carbothermic process for producing high purity Silicon and the CEPE process which is a solvent free process for extracting botanical oils. In December 2013 Kevin presented two papers related to wind turbine infrasound at the 166th meeting of the Acoustical Society of America (ASA) in San Francisco, CA. Both papers were published by ASA in the peer reviewed POMA on line Journal of the Acoustical Society of America. The first paper (Acoustic interaction as a primary cause of infrasonic spinning mode generation and propagation from wind turbines), describes the spinning mode theory of infrasound propagation from wind turbines developed by Kevin and provides a mathematical model for calculating the infrasound levels at any distance from the turbine. The paper was well received when presented, and no unsettled challenges have been received from the academic community (the paper was accepted for publication in January 2014).
The second paper (Significant infrasound levels a previously unrecognized contaminant in land-mark motion sickness studies), provides a theoretical and a mathematical link between motion sickness incidence (MSI) and infrasound, which was developed by Kevin, based on data from motion sickness research performed by McCauley et al. in the 1970’s and funded by the US Navy. The data was re-interpreted by the author to take into account the cyclic elevation variation related, barometric pressure fluctuations (infrasound), which were not accounted for as biodynamic stimulus in the original research. The correlation between the measured MSI and the infrasound was found to be essentially indisputable. The application of Occam’s Razor clearly favours the pressure related hypothesis developed by Kevin, no challenges to the finding have yet been received (the paper was accepted for publication in May 2014).
Elwood Morris is responsible for the cooperative development of inventions & design solutions through the active interchange of ideas and concepts. Elwood is also responsible for the mechanical engineering aspects of prototype design including stress and fatigue testing. As well, Elwood Morris oversees the manufacturing and procurement of mechanical components for prototype and test assemblies. An equal business partner and co-inventor of the CEPE technology Elwood is a professional Aerospace Engineer (PEO member) with whom a cooperative working relationship has existed for approximately 30 years.
Elwood worked as a development engineer for Pratt and Whitney in Montreal and Mississauga after graduating with a BSc. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Manitoba in 1964. While at PWC, Elwood was involved in the development of the JT15D engine and customer liaison to Cessna, Learjet and Mitsubishi. Elwood was also part of the development team on the PT6, PW200, PW300 and PW500 series engines. Elwood was instrumental in setting up the Reliability Engineering department at PWC. After retiring from PWC in 1999, Elwood started a technology company (Electro Magneto Dynamics EMD) to develop a small high-speed starter for PWC and to support PWC’s Advanced Design group in manufacturing and purchasing hardware for experimental concepts.
Josh is responsible for the 3D generation of designs/concepts and engineering drawings. He has 18 years design experience in the aerospace sector creating 3D modelling of parts, assemblies and generating engineering drawings to aerospace standards. Most of Josh’s career design work has been focused around and in support of the development and iteration of new concepts and processes.
Josh has worked the last 8 years with MDS Coating Technologies, developing and creating fixtures in the support and development of metallic-ceramic protective airfoil coatings used in the commercial, military and industrial sectors today. In this role, Josh also has had the opportunity to create/develop the best applicable designs specifically leveraging the advantages of plastic and metal additive manufacturing technologies.
In a similar design role, Josh has supported 3 major engineering innovation projects developed and patented by Kevin Allan Dooley Inc. (KADI) and KADI Botanical Inc over the past 5 years.
Having started his career working at Pratt and Whitney Canada for 10 years. Josh established an early foundation based on the highest standards, design guidelines and mentorships founded on 75+ years of legacy aerospace engineering knowledge. The opportunity to work in the Advanced Design Group at Pratt and Whitney Canada led Josh to design, analyze and draft new designs. From idea to 3D model to hardware in hand, this job fostered an understanding and methodology of taking a concept, quickly turn it into reality, learn, and iterate again. Due to the innovative nature of this work, Josh was awarded 5 U.S. patents in his name.
