Develop a Tool to Measure Bonded Joint Strength for Primary Load Bearing Aircraft Structures
SBC: LSP Technologies, Inc. Topic: AF05125To reduce weight and improve fuel efficiency, composites are being adhesively bonded into integral structural elements of aircraft at an accelerating rate. Once a bonded structure is assembled, there is no conventional NDI method available to assure that bond strength is adequate for service. The presence of weak regions in bonds can lead to disastrous failure of the structure under flight loads ...

Rapid Cure System for Nutplate Installation
SBC: CORNERSTONE RESEARCH GROUP INC Topic: AF161124Air Force platforms utilize nutplates to attach components when fasteners access is limited. Damaged nutplates require timely replacement and approved repair techniques mandate the use of certified adhesives, typically requiring a lengthy 24 hour cure at room temperature. Therefore, Air Force repair depots are faced with the difficult situation of performing high volume, timely nutplate repairs us ...

Robust Cryogenic Compatible Turbo-machinery and Liquid Rocket Engine coatings
SBC: MCGAW TECHNOLOGY INC Topic: AF131169This hase II effort addresses the extension and refinement of the design system begun in the Phase I activity, further developed (toward turbines) in the current Phase II, for coatings and substrate materials and environments that closely match the intended ORSC LOX/RP-1 thrust chamber environment. This Phase II also envisions the design of a very novel bench-scale test apparatus and protocol th ...

False Alarm Rejection (FAR) Techniques for Missile Warning Systems (MWSs)
SBC: Defense Research Associates, Inc. Topic: AF071213A major challenge in developing a MWS is maintaining a high probability of detection in high clutter environments with a minimum number of false alarms. Three main methods used to detect missiles are spectral filtering, spatial processing, and temporal discrimination. Each of these methods helps with missile declaration and false alarm reduction, but further false alarm rejection is needed. The ...

Materials Processing for Heterogeneous Integration of Optical Isolators
SBC: SRICO INC Topic: AF161128This SBIR project is developing magnetless thin film magneto-optic (MO) materials processing and fabrication techniques for the heterogeneous integration of optical isolators. Integrated optic isolators based on these films have potential to be simpler, more reliable, and more compact relative to those based on materials that require an external magnetic field. In this proposal, a magnetless isola ...

Radio Frequency (RF) Traveling Wave Inspection Tool
SBC: MATRIX RESEARCH INC Topic: AF131113ABSTRACT: Specialized aircraft coatings can degrade over time and impact desired performance. Current reflectometers measure at normal incidence to the surface which does not accurately predict the electrical performance of the material across the aircraft's surface. It is desirable to measure the interaction of the non-specular component or traveling wave to fully characterize the electrical per ...

Advanced Fast Shutter for Debris Mitigation
SBC: HYPERION TECHNOLOGY GROUP INC Topic: DTRA143007In an effort to development more robust optical system coatings DTRA, in collaboration with Sandia National Labs, is working to characterize the degradation of optical materials for space systems when exposed to high intensely EUV/ cold x-rays. The experiments utilizes the Double Eagle z-pinch facility which generates high current, high voltage arc pinch plasma to produce an intense EUV and cold x ...

Novel Munition Technologies to Attack and Defeat Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD)
SBC: HYPERION TECHNOLOGY GROUP INC Topic: DTRA143004Traditional weapon systems often fail to meet the requirements of close combat typical of the previously discussed engagement, where insurgents often blend in or store weapon amongst friendly or non-combatant forces, to shield them from precision strike munitions of a technologically superior force. This type of warfare has led to an increased focus on the use of less-lethal weapons, to reduce let ...

Alternative Materials to Cu-Be for Landing Gear Bushing/Bearing Applications (16-RD-885)
SBC: UES SERVICES INC Topic: AF151160Cu-Be alloy is the material of choice for highly wear resistant, high strength bushing material utilized frequently in landing gear applications. However, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) lists beryllium (Be) as hazardous with inhalation of Be-containing particulate leading to inflammation of the lungs and chronic beryllium disease and lesion development in the lungs with long-term exposu ...
