Company: Applied Research Corp Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NASA / SBIR / 1984 / 2
Abstract: NEW TECHNIQUES ARE NEEDED IN THE FABRICATION OF HIGH-QUALITYDIFFRACTION GRATINGS OF THE TYPE REQUIRED FOR PLANNED AND ANTICIPATED SPACE ASTRONOMY INSTRUMENTS. GRATINGS WITH THE REQUIRED LOW LEVELS OF SPECTRALLY-SCATTERED LIGHT AND LARGE BLAZE ANGLES ARE NOT CURRENTLY AVAILABLE, AND IT IS… more
Company: Applied Research Corp Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1984 / 1
Abstract: APPLIED RESEARCH CORPORATION PROPOSES TO DEVELOP A SOFTWARE SYSTEM FOR ANALYZING THE ATMOSPHERIC EFFECTS OF NUCLEAR CONFLICT SCENARIOS. THE PHASE I EFFORT WILL CONCENTRATE ON THE EFFECTS OF AEROSOLS INJECTED INTO THE ATMOSPHERE BY NUCLEAR DETONATION AND THE ASSOCIATED FIRES. THESE EFFECTS WILL BE… more
Company: Applied Research, Inc. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NASA / SBIR / 1984 / 1
Abstract: WITH THE ADVENT OF THE SPACE SHUTTLE AND THE ASSOCIATED ENHANCED ACCESSIBILITY OF OUTER SPACE, MORE AUTOMATION OF ROUTINE SPACEFLIGHT OPERATIONS IS DESIRABLE. THIS IS ESPECIALLY SO FOR RELATIVE SPACECRAFT MANEUVER OPERATIONS REQUIRING A HIGH DEGREE OF RELIABILITY AND CREW TIME. THIS PROJECT CONCERNS… more
Company: Applied Research Inc. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1984 / 1
Abstract: THE FEASIBILITY OF EARLY IDENTIFICATION OF MANPOWER AND SKILL LEVEL REQUIREMENTS IN WEAPON SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT IS EXAMINED. THE OVERALL GOAL WITH RESPECT TO THE TOTAL PROJECT IS A FORECASTING WITH A CREDIBLE BASIS FOR PROJECTING OPERATOR AND MAINTAINER REQUIREMENTS BASED ON CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT STAGE… more
Company: Applied Research Inc. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1984 / 1
Abstract: BATTLEFIELD ENVIRONMENTS POSE CONFLICTING PERSONAL HEARING SENSITIVITYAND PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS. INTERPERSONAL VERBAL COMMUNICATIONS CAN IMPROVE THE EFFICIENCY OF MANNED OPERATIONS UNDER THESE ENVIRONMENTS; HOWEVER, TEMPORARY AND/OR PERMANENT HEARING DAMAGE CAN RESULT IF NO PROTECTIVE HEADGEAR IS… more
Company: Applied Research Consortium Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NASA / SBIR / 1984 / 1
Abstract: THIS PROJECT WILL EXAMINE THE FEASIBILITY OF A COMPUTER-BASED SYSTEM THAT WOULD EMULATE AN ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION SUPERVISOR. SYSTEMS OF THIS TYPE ARE A PRODUCT OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE RESEARCH, AND ARE KNOWN COLLECTIVELY AS "EXPERT SYSTEMS". THIS FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS WILL EXAMINE: THE ROLE OF… more
Company: Metron Corpon Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1984 / 1
Abstract: THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS STUDY IS TO DETERMINE THE FEASIBILITY OF DEVELOPING A NON-FLOODING PORTABLE PRESSURE CALIBRATOR (PPC) THAT IS IMPERVIOUS TO OPERATOR ERROR, PREVENTS CONTAMINATION IN THE LIQUID SYSTEMS IN WHICH THE TEST DEVICE IS LOCATED AND IS EASY TO OPERATE. THE FLOODING INHIBITING TECHNIQUE… more
Company: Spire Corporation Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NASA / SBIR / 1984 / 2
Abstract: HIGH SPEED CRYOGENIC TURBO-MACHINERY REQUIRES RELIABLE DRY FILM LUBRICANTS IN THE MAIN SHAFT TO SUPPORT THE ROLLINGELEMENT BEARINGS. THE LUBRICANT PRESENTLY USED HAS SHORT LIFETIME AND CAUSES UNACCEPTABLE WEAR RATE ON THE BEARINGS ONCE THE DRY FILMS ARE DEPLETED. NEW APPROACHES ARE REQUIRED FOR… more
Company: Spire Corporation Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOE / SBIR / 1984 / 2
Abstract: THE FLAT-PLATE MODULE HAS BEEN THE PRIMARY APPROACH TO COMMERCIALIZATION OF NEAR-TERM PHOTOVOLTAICS. RESEARCH ON FLAT-PLATE TECHNOLOGY HAS FOCUSED ON REDUCTION OF COST-PER-WATT WITHOUT DUE REGARD FOR FINAL MODULE EFFICIENCY. IT IS NOW RECOGNIZED THAT TO BE COMMERCIALLY VIABLE IN U.S. ENERGY MARKETS,… more
Company: Spire Corporation Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1984 / 1
Abstract: GAAS, WHICH HAS BEEN USED FOR MONOLITHIC SURFACE ACOUSITC WAVE (SAW) DEVICES, IS ALSO THE MICROELECTRONIC MATERIAL OF CHOICE FOR HIGH SPEED, HIGH-FREQUENCY APPLICATIONS, AD ITS COMBINATION OF PIEZOELECTRIC AND SEMICONDUCTING PROPERTIES OFFERS THE OPPORTUNITY TO INTEGRATE SAW AND ELECTRONIC DEVICES… more
Company: Spire Corporation Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1984 / 1
Abstract: ELECTRODE EROSION LIMITS THE LIFETIME OF PULSED SPARK GAPS TO APPROXIMATELY 10 AND 10 PULSES WITH THE PRESENT STATE OF THE TECHNOLOGY. SPIRE CORPORATION PROPOSES TO MAKE NEW TYPES OF REFRACTORY MATERIALS FOR ELECTRODE COATINGS BY ION IMPLANTATION, WITH THE OBJECTIVE OF EXTENDING THE LIFETIME TO… more
Company: Spire Corporation Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NASA / SBIR / 1984 / 1
Abstract: HIGH SPEED CRYOGENIC TURBOMACHINERY REQUIRES RELIABLE DRY FILM LUBRICANTS IN THE MAIN SHAFT TO SUPPORT ROLLING ELEMENT BEARINGS. THE LUBRICANT PRESENTLY USED HAS A VERY SHORT LIFETIME, CAUSING UNACCEPTABLE WEAR ON THE BEARINGS ONCE THE DRY FILMS ARE DEPLETED. RESEARCH IS REQUIRED TO DEVELOP HIGHLY… more

There are several categories such as “By Agency”, “By Year”, “By State” etc. Select a checkbox within a category to refine your search results.
Each of your selections is listed in the “Narrow Search Filters” bar. You can uncheck these selections to remove them.
Search for Either Criteria
When you select multiple values within a category, the results will include values that match either of the selections. For example, selecting “2005” and “2007” in the “By Year” category will display results that include either 2005 OR 2007 in the results.
Narrowing the Search Results
You can refine your search results across categories. To narrow down your results, select multiple values across different categories. The results will only include values that match the selections across the categories. For example, selecting “2005” in the “By Year” category and “NASA” in the “By Agency” category will only display the results that contain both “2005” AND “NASA” in the results.
