Abstract: THE RELIABILITY AND PERFORMANCE OF SPACE SHUTTLE MAIN ENGINES (SSME) ARE CRITICAL TO MISSION LAUNCH, SUCCESS, AND SAFETY. CURRENTLY, SSME RELIABILITY AND PERFORMANCE ARE LIMITED BY TURBOPUMP BEARING FAILURE, BOTH IN THE HIGH PRESSURE LIQUID OXYGEN AND HIGH PRESSURE FUEL TURBOPUMPS (HPOTP AND HPFTP).… more
Company: Avcon, Inc. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1993 / 1
Abstract: Previous R&D at AVCON has developed miniaturized, power efficient, modular, scalable active magnetic bearings and control electronics for applications ranging from precision gimbals for sensors, to radial and thrust bearings for IHPTET type turbine engines, to radial and thrust bearings for SSME… more
Company: Avid Therapeutics, Inc. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: HHS / SBIR / 1993 / 1
Abstract: There are 300 million people in the world who are chronically infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV). Available therapies for the elimination of HBV infection often have a transient effect only. These therapies do not specifically target HBV, and this, in part, is a basis for their limited and… more
Company: AVOX SYSTEMS, INC. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: HHS / SBIR / 1993 / 2
Abstract: THE PURPOSE OF THE INVESTIGATION IS TO PERFECT A NOVEL OPTICAL DEVICE THAT MEASURES THE OXYHEMOGLOBIN SATURATION (%HBO2), TOTAL HEMOGLOBIN CONCENTRATION (THB), AND OXYGEN CONTENT OF A BLOOD SAMPLE IN A GLASS CAPILLARY TUBE OF THE TYPE COMMONLY USED FOR MICROHEMATOCRIT DETERMINATIONS. WE HAVE ALREADY… more
Company: Aware, Inc. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOE / SBIR / 1993 / 1
Abstract: NUMERICAL METHODS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED FOR SOLVING NONLINEAR PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS, USING THE FAMILY OF COMPACTLY SUPPORTED WAVELET FUNCTIONS THAT ARE ORTHOGONAL. BEING BOTH COMPACTLY SUPPORTED AND ORTHOGONAL, THE WAVELETS COMBINE THE ADVANTAGES OF FINITE ELEMENT, SPLINE, AND FOURIER… more
Company: Axiomatics Corp. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NSF / SBIR / 1993 / 1
Abstract: THERMOPLASTICS ARE NOT WIDELY USED IN POLAR REGIONS BECAUSE THEY EMBRITTLE AND MAY LOSE 70 PERCENT OF THEIR FRACTURE TOUGHNESS AT LOW TEMPERATURES. RESEARCHERS HAVE IDENTIFIED A PROMISING MICROCELLULAR FOAM (MCF) STRUCTURE WHICH MAY SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVE LOW TEMPERATURE THERMOPLASTIC PERFORMANCE.… more
Company: AXON MEDICAL, INC. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: HHS / SBIR / 1993 / 2
Abstract: FETAL MONITORING IS USEFUL IN ASSESSING THE PROGRESS OF LABOR AND FOR DETECTION OF PRETERM LABOR, A LEADING CAUSE OF FETAL MORTALITY AND MORBIDITY. COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE SENSORS FOR MONITORING INTRAUTERINE CONTRACTIONS USE CUMBERSOME BELTS AND LARGE AND BULKY SENSORS WHICH ARE UNCOMFORATABLE AND… more
Company: Aztec Systems Agency/Program/Year/Phase: HHS / SBIR / 1993 / 1
Abstract: Many medical products and devices require a means of nondestructive noninvasive, high resolution interrogation of surface features in order to insure standards of quality and safety.

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.
