The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Active Control of Scramjet Isolator Shocks (ACSIS)

    SBC: Innoveering, LLC            Topic: AF15AT19

    ABSTRACT: Active control of the shock system in a scramjet engine isolator opens possibilities for enhanced engine performance and reduced engine weight by eliminating excess isolator design margin. A successful system will allow for maximum performance from a given engine configuration and will deliver range and efficiency that exceeds those possible using passive unstart control. Our approach is ...

  2. ADAPTIVE GRID TECHNIQUES FOR USE IN COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS

    SBC: Computational Mechan            Topic: N/A

    THIS PROJECT FOCUSES ON THE TWO MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES OF ALL OF COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS: 1) HOW GOOD ARE THE NUMERICAL ANSWERS OBTAINED IN A COMPUTATION? AND 2) HOW CAN THE BEST POSSIBLE ANSWERS BE OBTAINED FOR A FIXED AND LIMITED COMPUTATIONAL EFFORT, BUDGET, OR COMPUTING CAPABILITY? IN GENERAL TERMS THE ANSWERS TO THESE QUESTIONS ARE 1) TO DETERMINE RELIABLE A-POSTERIORI ESTIMATES OF ERROR ...

  3. Additive Manufacturing of High-Index Photonic Circuits

    SBC: NANOHMICS INC            Topic: AF141173

    "ABSTRACT: Modern electronic and opto-electronic devices are predicated on controlled deposition and patterning of functional material layers (e.g. semiconductors, conductors, and dielectrics). A handful of techniques, including vacuum epitaxy and chemical vapor deposition, in conjunction with lithographic micromachining methods, have long dominated the manufacture of these systems, particularly ...

  4. Additive manufacturing of high-index photonic circuits

    SBC: NANOHMICS INC            Topic: AF141173

    ABSTRACT:Modern electronic and opto-electronic devices are predicated on controlled deposition and patterning of functional material layers (e.g. semiconductors, conductors, and dielectrics). Vacuum epitaxy and chemical vapor deposition, in conjunction with lithographic methods, have dominated the manufacture of these systems. While these techniques are well-established and routinely deliver relia ...

  5. ADVANCED CUTTER DEVELOPMENT FOR EGRESS BORING MACHINES

    SBC: Terra Tek Inc.            Topic: N/A

    CURRENT EGRESS BORING MACHINES, UTILIZING CONVENTIONAL 17-INCH DISC CUTTERS, ARE CAPABLE OF ACHIEVING MAXIMUM ADVANCE RATES OF 80 FEET PER HOUR, BECAUSE OF CUTTER LIMITATIONS. THE AIR FORCE HAS DETERMINED THAT NATIONAL NEEDS REQUIRE SUBSTANTIALLY FASTER BORING RATES. ALSO, IT IS CRUCIAL THAT THE CUTTERS BE CAPABLE OF COMPLETING THE EGRESS SHAFT, WITHOUT ANY MAINTENANCE/REPLACEMENT OF THE CUTTERS. ...

  6. Advanced Dielectric Insulation Techniques for High Voltage Pulsed Power Systems

    SBC: Applied Physical Electronics, L.C.            Topic: AF093014

    ABSTRACT: The proposed phase II effort would work to establish new advanced insulation techniques and their corresponding design guidelines that could be employed to reduce the volume existing pulsed power systems, improve their reliability, and possibly improve their mechanical integrity. Additionally, the design of a new pulser is proposed, which will be based on the insulation schemes identifi ...

  7. ADVANCED FUEL CELLS

    SBC: Treadwell Corp            Topic: N/A

    THE MOST CRITICAL ASPECT OF THE RADIO FREQUENCY POWER SUPPLY FOR THE NEUTRAL PARTICLE BEAM INTEGRATED EXPERIMENT IS ITS POWER TO WEIGHT RATIO. IN ADDITION, THE SPACE-QUALIFIED 45V POWER SUPPLY MUST BE ABLE TO SUPPLY 27,000 AMP PULSES DOWN TO 350 MICROSECONDS WITH ONLY A 2 - 3% VOLTAGE DROP. PROTON EXCHANGE MEMBRANE FUEL CELLS HAVE POTENTIALLY THE HIGHEST POWER TO WEIGHT RATIO OF ANY TYPE OF FUEL C ...

  8. Advanced Li ion battery with improved cycling stability

    SBC: LYNNTECH INC.            Topic: AF151085

    ABSTRACT:State of art Li ion batteries are not able to meet the energy density and charge-discharge cycling stability requirements for the satellite applications for DoD. The primary problems are the structural instability and the low electronic conductivity of the Li rich transition metal oxide based cathode materials during the charge-discharge cycling operation. Specifically, during the charge- ...

  9. Advanced Propulsion and Power Concepts for Large Size Class Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS)

    SBC: ENGINE RESEARCH ASSOCIATES INC            Topic: AF131160

    ABSTRACT: Desired tactical requirements for unmanned aerial systems (UASs) exceed current capabilities for performance, reliability, maintainability, cost and supportability. Mission requirements such as extended endurance, increased power for auxiliary/sensor systems, and low altitude, low speed maneuverability are becoming paramount, specifically, in the 10,000 lb class of vehicles. These desir ...

  10. A Framework for Robust Engineering of Large-Scale Distributed Real-Time Systems

    SBC: L&S COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY, INC.            Topic: AF083047

    Our Phase I project addressed the challenge of creating a new paradigm for the development of software in which developers evaluate the performance of software architecture and design options early when it can have the greatest impact. Our vision moves software performance analysis from an isolated set of tools that require laborious manual transfer of information among design and analysis tools t ...
