Award Data

Advanced manufacture requires low-latency and high-reliability wireless communications between the sensors/actuators and the central controller. However, the current wireless protocols cannot meet such stringent latency and reliability requirements. In this project, InfoBeyond advocates L2Wireless (Low-Latency High-reliability Wireless Protocol Using Cooperative Relaying and Network Coding) to add ...

Sonalysts, Inc. proposes to research and develop a Common User Defined Operational Picture (UDOP) for the Enterprise Ground System (EGS) for satellite Command and Control (C2). We will research and analyze the human factors affecting operator function and performance across multiple satellite systems, and the common and unique aspects of space systems currently in use. We will develop logical cons ...

The Air Force has identified the need for an interactive and immersive trainer simulator environment that can support an array of instructional capabilities, accurately represent the cyber environment, and not only train cyber operators on current systems

Persistent cyber anomalies (PCAs) pose the biggest risk to corporate and government networks by maintaining persistent access, changing security access control lists, granting access to a protected environment, reconnaissance, and disrupting network traff

A Battlefield Air Operations (BAO) kit is a ruggedized, wearable command and control system for enhancing the Airmen ground and air tactical capabilities. For such a purpose, BAO should be explored with minimal manual complexity, simple, and time-effectiv

Production of hydroxylamine nitrate (HAN) and hydroxyethyl hydrazine nitrate (HEHN) is of great concern for the manufacture of AF-315E. Current stockpiles of heritage ingredients held by AFRL are being depleted and those manufacturers are no longer in exi

Current and future explosive munition weapon systems development relies heavily on explosives detonation performance characterization and computational hydro-code simulation research conducted by DoD and DoE research communities. This work in turn relies

Under SBIR solicitation topic AF171-106, the Air Force seeks to enhance the reliability of remotely activated batteries (RABs) for strategic missile applications (Minuteman III and D5), such that these primary batteries, which require a field-life of up t

This Phase II STTR effort is focused on generating the data necessary to identify the phenomenology that produces carbon deposition within kerosene film cooled rocket engines.This data is essential to guide the model development and validation process.Program outputs will be both data and a physics-based model for carbon deposition.

Research is proposed for the development and implementation of state of the art, reduced order nonlinear aeroelastic models for multidisciplinary/multi-fidelity optimization problems. Highly efficient and accurate aeroelastic simulation tools will be constructed based upon the mathematical formalism of optimal prediction theory and a novel implementation of a filtered harmonic balance solution met ...
