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. Titanium-Composite Body Armor Plates

    SBC: Advanced Protection Products,            Topic: N/A

    Advanced Protection Products, Inc. (APPI) will use advanced materials and processes to develop and certify Very Light Body Armor (VLBA) plates that are capable of defeating a variety of ballistic threats. The VLBA plates will be designed using a titanium allow based metallic-composite armor system to provide cost-effective, lightweight protection. Composite facing and backing materials will be u ...

  2. DEVELOPMENT OF A HIGH HEAT FLUX HEAT EXCHANGER

    SBC: Applied Thermodynamic Systems            Topic: N/A

    GAS-TO-LIQUID HEAT EXCHANGERS FIND APPLICATION IN NEARLY EVERY ENERGY CONVERSION AND PROCESS SYSTEM. HOWEVER, DUE TO LOW HEAT FLUXES, THEY ARE EXCESSIVELY LARGE AND EXPENSIVE. LOW HEAT FLUXES ARE CAUSED PRIMARILY BY LOW GAS-SIDE HEAT TRANSFER COEFFICIENTS. THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS STUDY IS TO DEVELOP A NOVEL FLUIDIZED BED HEAT EXCHANGER WHICH HAS SIGNIFICANTLY GREATER HEAT FLUXES THAN CONVENTIONAL HE ...

  3. Cycloidal Propulsion for UAV VTOL Applications

    SBC: BOSCH AEROSPACE, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The proposed effort will result in the development and wind tunnel validation of a universal pitch cycloidal propeller system which can provide efficient vertical takeoff or landing (VTOL) UAV propulsion. This form of propulsion is currently in use in marine applications, and has been studied by major aircraft manufacturers and the military. Study and wind tunnel test results support the concept; ...

  4. CHARACTERIZATION OF FLAMHOLDER BLOWOUT IN GAS TURBINE AUGMENTORS

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: N/A

    GAS TURBINE AUGMENTORS HAVE HISTORICALLY EXPERIENCED DIFFICULT MAINTAINING COMBUSTION AT HIGH ALTITUDES AND LOW FLIGHT MACH NUMBERS. DUE TO THE LACK OF ANALYTICAL TOOLS, TESTING PROVIDES THE PRINCIAL MEANS OF IMPROVING A DESIGN FOR STABILITY. SUCH TESTING IS EXPENSIVE AND TIME CONSUMING, THUS ALLOWING ONLY A LIMITED NUMBER OF DESIGNS TO BE ASSESSED. WHAT IS LACKING IS A GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF THE F ...

  5. An Automated Viscous Unstructured Adaptive Cartesian Grid Generation Method for Complex Geometries

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: N/A

    An automated viscous Cartesian grid generation method will be developed in this SBIR project to handle complex geometries. Given a well-defined geometry (e.g. in NURBS format), an advancing front (AF) algorithm will be employed to triangulate In Phase I, the above methodology will be implemented and demonstrated for relatively simple 3D geometries, such as a wing and a wing/fuselage combinat ...

  6. Dynamic Firing Zone Imaging System

    SBC: Conceptual Systems & Software Inc            Topic: N/A

    An automated dynamic firing zone generation imaging system is needed to increase the effectiveness and utility of shipboard weapon systems. The current manual firing zone definition process is manpower intensive, complex, and cannot account for motion or changing topside configuration. These limitations greatly restrict the lethality and utility of shipboard weapons. This project proposes a dyna ...

  7. Unified HP/RT Development to Deployment Middleware Platform

    SBC: Conceptual Systems & Software Inc            Topic: N/A

    A significant problem for modern combat control system implementations is the incompatible development and deployment environments. These applications have specific performance requirements that until recently were only accurately obtained on the target installation system. However, for various logistic and economic reasons, the platforms utilized for advanced applications have typically been inc ...

  8. Self-Assembled Monolayer Based Methods for Fabrication of Diffractive Optical Elements

    SBC: DIGITAL OPTICS CORP.            Topic: N/A

    This SBIR Phase I project builds upon Digital Optics Corporation's experience in the design, fabrication and commercialization of diffractive and micro-optics and the experience of Dr. George Whitesides of Harvard University to provide an innovative approach to the fabrication of diffractive and micro-optical components using self-assembled monolayers (SAM's). The proposed approach makes use of SA ...

  9. On-The-Aperture Patch Tuning (OTAPT) for Broadband Antennas

    SBC: DYNETICS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Dynetics proposes the use of On-The-Aperture Patch Tuning (OTAPT) as a potential solution for broadband performance from a low profile antenna. This solution is based on the innovative concept of integration of digital switching of tuning elements directly on the aperture surface. A single patch antenna can then be digitally tuned to successively lower frequencies, modifying the patch dimensions ...
