Our proposal is constructed around a mature, government-owned, distributed simulation architecture known as Joint Force Operational Readiness Combat Effectiveness Simulator (JFORCES) and a proven three-step computer-aided methodology known as Rapid Relational Modeling (RRM). The proposal includes definition, structuring and prioritizing of project goals and requirements using consensus of end-use ...

This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I project is designed to produce a prototype manufacturing workforce training curriculum, enhanced software programs, and methodology that specifically address Composite Design and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), including more effective use of Catia V5 (an integrated suite of Computer Aided Design (CAD), Computer Aided Engineering (CAE), and Comp ...

The goal of this SBIR Phase II project is to bring the demonstrated Gallium Nitride (GaN) microdisplay technology to industrial maturity and to final commercialization levels. The project's goal will be accomplished by further optimizing the microdisplay device structural design and fabrication process based on the demonstrative results obtained in Phase I. Based on high-efficiency semiconductor m ...

Aerotonomy, Incorporated (AI) and subcontractor Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) will apply the latest knowledge in circulation control and piezo-electric synthetic (zero net mass flux) jet actuators (SJAs) to develop a practical small UAV with no hinged control surfaces. In the area of flow control, low jet momentum coefficient SJAs have been used primarily as a mechanism to keep flow atta ...

Aerotonomy, Incorporated and our research institution partner Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) will apply the latest knowledge in conformal load bearing antenna design, structural and electromagnetic modeling, and optimization techniques to develop a unique 2 Stage Multi-Disciplinary Optimization (MDO) system that supports the design of highly integrated miniature broadband antenna structure ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Founded in 1998, Altea Therapeutics is developing its PassPort(tm) system to deliver proteins and peptides, small-molecule drugs, genes and vaccines from a skin patch, eliminating the need for invasive needle injection. This breakthrough technology, currently undergoing Phase 1 clinical trials for basal insulin delivery, revolutionizes the way in which medicine ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Founded in 1998, Altea Therapeutics is developing its PassPort(tm) transdermal drug delivery system to deliver proteins and peptides, small-molecule drugs, genes and vaccines from a skin patch, eliminating the need for invasive needle injection. This breakthrough technology, currently undergoing Phase 1 clinical trials for transdermal delivery of insulin and ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Apeliotus Technologies proposes to develop a commercial diagnostic for the early detection of age-related macular degeneration (ARMD). It relies on a functional test of dark adaptation kinetics (the transition from being light-adapted to being dark-adapted) that has been shown in previous work to detect the onset of ARMD at least four years before it is clinic ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Approximately 10 million people in the U.S. are estimated to have osteoporosis, a disease that results in over 1.5 million bone fractures a year. It is now known that the accumulation of fat cells (adipocytes) in bone marrow is a major factor contributing to age-related bone loss. Women with osteoporosis have higher numbers of marrow adipocytes than those wome ...

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Neurons send instructions to other cells in the form of electrical signals that allow movement, sensation, memory, learning and countless other activities that are taken for granted in daily life. Loss of neural cell function results from traumatic injuries such as gunshots wounds or car accidents and from neurodegenerative diseases. The scale of this health p ...
