Develop High-Temperature, Low-Humidity Aromatic Hydrocarbon-based H2/O2 Membranes for Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) Fuel Cells
SBC: AKRON POLYMER SYSTEMS, INC. Topic: AF071130The development of proton exchange membrane (PEM)(also known as polymer electrolyte membrane) fuel cells has been limited by the availability of suitable membrane materials. In order to achieve acceptable performance at low cost, such fuel cells are required to work at elevated temperature and low (near 0) relative humidity (RH) for extended periods of time. For example, the U.S. Department of Ene ...

Head orientation sensing system
SBC: APPAREO SYSTEMS LLC Topic: AF071020Appareo Systems, LLC, proposes to develop a functional prototype head-mounted position and orientation system (HPOS). The HPOS will be capable of operating in electromagnetic fields of up to 200 volts/meter and will provide at least one degree of accuracy and at least one degree of resolution at a 60 Hz update rate while providing 3 degree of freedom (DOF) information on head orientation, includi ...

Unresolved Resident Space Object Characterization Using Time-Frequency Analysis
SBC: APPLIED OPTIMIZATION, INC. Topic: AF071283Applied Optimization, Inc., in working with Boeing-LTS and Space Dynamics Laboratory, proposes to demonstrate that full-feature characterization of small and faint unknown RSO in real-time is feasible by using the spectral-temporal features of its signature. Time-resolved spectrometer data in the visible or infrared will be considered as the input. In addition to enhancing existing methods for RSO ...

Friction Stir Welded Aluminum Machining Preforms [FSWAMP]
SBC: APPLIED OPTIMIZATION, INC. Topic: AF06084Applied Optimization, Inc., in working with EWI, Inc. and Boeing Phantom Works, proposes to demonstrate application of friction stir welding [FSW] for the manufacturing of a large aluminum 7050-T7451 component that is representative of a canted bulkhead. The FSW-based redesign is lighter, makes use of commercial off-the-shelf product forms, and is expected to reduce the lead time and the costs of ...

Development of Ultra-Refined Microstructure in Friction Stir Processed 7xxx Aluminum using Microstructural and Thermomechanical Modeling
SBC: APPLIED OPTIMIZATION, INC. Topic: AF07T038Applied Optimization, Inc., in working with EWI, Inc., Ohio State University, and Boeing Phantom Works, proposes to demonstrate feasibility of using microstructural models to predict the required processing conditions that can produce nanostructured grain sizes in the thermo-mechanical affected zone in friction stir processing [FSP] of 7075-T6 aluminum. First step will be an FSP trial using the p ...

Lightweight, Low-cost Insulation Materials for Hypersonic Vehicles
SBC: Applied Sciences Inc. Topic: AF071128Future hypersonic vehicles are being designed to travel at speeds approaching Mach 25. At these speeds, the temperature at the exterior surface is expected to exceed 3000°F. Advanced materials are needed to thermally protect the munitions in the interior of the vehicle as current materials are too dense, difficult to join, too conductive, non-structural, too expensive, or not rated for these te ...

Improved Radio Frequency (RF) Polymer Substrates for Antennas
SBC: BerrieHill Research Corporation Topic: AF071134In this SBIR proposal, BerrieHill Research Corporation working with the ElectroScience Laboratory and the MicroMD Facility at The Ohio State University shall identify and develop novel magnetic RF polymers that have relatively high permittivity and permeability while exhibiting low loss at frequencies above 1 GHz, yielding proof of principle data to substantiate the potential of these materials to ...

Efficiently Computing and/or Compensating for Object Variability for Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) Applications
SBC: BerrieHill Research Corporation Topic: AF071233Variability exists in all objects considered in ATR data sets. The two most important sources of this variability are (1) added or removed objects (example: object attached to the back of a tank) or (2) a part displaced relative to other parts, sometimes referred to as “articulation” (the classic example is a tank’s moveable turret and gun). These can cause severe difficulties in comparing m ...

Lightweight, Miniature Sensor Payload for a Mini-UAV
SBC: BerrieHill Research Corporation Topic: AF06215An important area of military capabilities is the small unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). It is inexpensive and controllable by forward units. The Air Force presently has a significant opportunity to improve the productivity of UAV radar systems to provide all-environment detection of camouflaged and concealed targets as well as detection and tracking of air and ground threats. The long range vision ...

Multiple-Tamper Event Detection Sensor
SBC: CORNERSTONE RESEARCH GROUP INC Topic: OSD05A01Cornerstone Research Group Inc. (CRG) proposes to build on Phase I success by developing a novel multiple-tamper detection and active anti-tamper (AT) scheme for use in new and existing weapon systems. CRG’s tamper-detection tool will be designed to detect and count intrusion events and then zero or destroy critical weapon system components. The tamper-detection tool can be embedded in a hard ...
