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. Design Tools for Combustion Stability

    SBC: IN SPACE, L.L.C.            Topic: AF083112

    ABSTRACT:A joint experimental and computational project using a carefully designed, flexible test article is proposed to assess the velocity-coupled combustion response of a representative liquid rocket injector element to transverse acoustic disturbances. In the proposed Phase II, the response of an injector flowfield at supercritical pressure conditions will be simulated, measured, and reduced i ...

  2. Surface Treatments for Stainless Steel Actuators

    SBC: IBC Materials & Technologies, LLC            Topic: AF131202

    ABSTRACT: Stainless steel ballscrew components, such as those found in landing gear and flap actuators on the C-130 aircraft, experience wear and subsequent failure due to corrosion, contamination and foreign object damage (FOD). High"dither"conditions, where the actuator undergoes a constant short-travel, high-frequency movement to maintain level flight, can also induce wear on actuator ballscr ...

  3. Method for Evaluating Candidates for Additive Manufacturing (AM) Processes

    SBC: IMAGINESTICS, LLC            Topic: AF141213

    ABSTRACT: A challenge which continues to present a barrier to the utilization of AM and wide spread adoption is knowing when to use the technology. This is particularly problematic in aerospace and in MRO operations because the technology is still emerging, and knowledgeable, experienced practitioners remain in short supply and will likely remain so until the next generation of technicians and en ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Modular Motor Drive with Programming and Configuration Tools for the Development of Small Aircraft Electric Power and Propulsion Systems

    SBC: PC KRAUSE & ASSOCIATES INC            Topic: AF151070

    ABSTRACT:Unmanned Air Vehicle (UAV) developers have limited marketplace options for motor speed controllers. The largest commercial controllers are generally limited to below 12 kW and battery voltages of less than 50 V, Although these are well suited to 800 Class helicopters and Giant scale fixed-wing aircraft, they are not powerful enough for larger UAV development. A few high-power options exis ...

  6. High-frequency Applications for Carbon Nanotube-based Wires

    SBC: MINNESOTA WIRE & CABLE CO            Topic: AF151130

    ABSTRACT:Minnesota Wire proposes to research and develop lightweight aerospace electrical conductors for electrical cables utilizing CNT, conductive metal coatings, and with applicable processes for chemically and mechanically fabricating these components. Substitution of legacy metals with these composite conductors will reduce weight and possibly reduce failure related to exposure, stress, strai ...

  8. Common Embedded Vehicle Network Diagnostics Interface Hardware

    SBC: NEW WAVE DESIGN & VERIFICATION LLC            Topic: AF151060

    ABSTRACT: New Wave Design & Verification proposes to design and simulate an IEEE-1394b System-on-a-Chip core that provides aircraft network administrators the ability to diagnose issues, provide statistics, and troubleshoot nodes efficiently. Implementation of the IEEE-1394 controller in programmable logic will also provide the opportunity to fix/modify several aspects of the current protocol imp ...

  9. Radiation Hardened Digital to Analog Converter

    SBC: TRUSTED SEMICONDUCTOR SOLUTIONS INC            Topic: AF151089

    ABSTRACT:Data transmission in communication systems, RADARs, satellite systems, and other military devices are dominated by analog data conversion. These high performance digital to analog converters (DAC) exceed 3Gsps with 12 bits of resolution and are readily available in the commercial marketplace, but they lack the radiation hardness required to support military satellite applications. Tru ...

  10. Hy-CIRCA: Autonomous Synthesis and Verification of Hybrid Cyber-Physical System Controllers

    SBC: SMART INFORMATION FLOW TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: AF14AT06

    ABSTRACT: To unlock the power of cooperating teams of autonomous cyber-physical systems (CPSs), humans must be able to effectively, reliably, and safely task them using high-level goals. SIFTs Playbook interface approach provides goal-based tasking for multi-agent autonomous missions. SIFTs Cooperative Intelligent Real-time Control Architecture (CIRCA) automatically synthesizes and verifies r ...
