The main focus of this SBIR Phase II project is to develop a prototype instrument and test cartridges for injectability pre-screening of high concentration protein formulations (HCFs). HCFs are non-Newtonian fluids with shear-thinning behavior and they are formulated to be administered by subcutaneous or muscular injections. The injectability and manufacturability of HCFs depend on the viscosity b ...

The large number of tank cars that need to be manufactured, retrofitted or modified each year to meet the safety requirements of DOT-117 specifications demands a large manufacturing capacity for any candidate material, such as Composite Metal Foam (CMF), that is going to be used in their structures. Currently the CMF technology is scaled from lab size production to 1’ x 1’ panels production in ...

Throughout the United States massive fuel transport pipeline networks‒thousands of kilometers long‒ inevitably cross seismically active areas while potentially experiencing severe working environments, varied geoenvironmental conditions, and significant deformations during their service life. To minimize the risk of failure, pipelines are closely monitored utilizing in-line inspection (ILI) to ...

Changes in ocean temperature have a profound impact on the productivity of fisheries and aquaculture. Sampling offshore ocean temperatures, particularly at depth, is challenging and expensive. As commercial fishermen are becoming more and more aware of the correlations between water temperature and harvest, opportunistic sampling from fishing gear can help fill this sampling need. Existing opportu ...

We propose to develop an advanced navigation solution for public transportation passengers that will guide them from their origin to single or multiple destination points and across multiple modes of transportation. Passengers will simply need to enter their destination (and optionally a starting point) and the system will select optimal and alternative routes. The navigation software will run on ...

This Phase 1 SBIR project aims to develop a frequency stabilized laser diode system suitable for application in optical metrology and in displacement measurement. The compact design of the semiconductor laser lends itself to many applications where a coherent light source is required, but space is at a premium. Some fields, such as precision optical metrology require a coherent light source whose ...

"SSSC is pleased to propose the development and delivery of a Hostile Fire Indication Sensor (HFIS) based on the Phase I design concept. The resulting system will limit the number of circuit card assemblies to two: one for the short wave infrared (SWIR)
