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. High Fidelity Clutter Model for Active Sonar

    SBC: Applied Physical Sciences Corp.            Topic: N08056

    The results of the Phase I effort demonstrated the feasibility of constructing a realistic, high fidelity active sonar clutter model that is not computationally intensive. Our first objective is to create a library of clutter objects based on statistical descriptors extracted from existing sonar databases. Our second objective is to create several surrogate acoustic environments using range depend ...

  2. Robust Deployable Acoustic Node (RDAN)

    SBC: Applied Physical Sciences Corp.            Topic: N092099

    Applied Physical Sciences Corp. working with L-3 Communications Maripro will develop a trawl-resistant, Robust Deployable Acoustic Node (RDAN). The RDAN technology will enable the U.S. Navy to install and operate acoustic underwater training ranges in shallow water environment to enhance fleet readiness. The acoustic sensor on the node will be specially designed to provide excellent acoustic fid ...

  3. An Innovative In-Flight Refueling Probe Component that Eliminates Accidental Overload of the Mast Assemble During Air Refueling

    SBC: DESIGN BY ANALYSIS, INC.            Topic: N092111

    gggGiven the U.S. Navy’s goal to eliminate the potential loss of an F-35/Joint Strike Fighter aircraft during in-flight refueling operations it is desirable to modify today’s probe and drogue system that is based on a “weak link” design. Refueling hose-whip is a long standing problem that leads to stress overloading of refueling components, which in turn break off leading to catastrophic ...

  4. Innovative Analysis Tool for Damage Growth From Loaded Composite Fastener Holes

    SBC: Global Engineering and Materials, Inc.            Topic: N092095

    A software tool for residual strength and life prediction of composite bolted joints will be developed by enhancing and integrating an existing mesh independent delamination and matrix cracking network model in ABAQUS. The tool will be able to model arbitrary location, size of damage, and geometric configuration of a composite structure with fastener holes without user intervention or remeshing. H ...

  5. Innovative Approaches for Improving Progressive Damage Modeling and Structural Life Prediction of Airframes

    SBC: Global Engineering and Materials, Inc.            Topic: N091008

    An automatic software tool for 3D fatigue crack growth prognosis of structural systems under realistic complex loading will be developed by integrating a unified growth model with a mesh independent extended finite element toolkit in ABAQUS. The tool will be able to model arbitrary non-planer crack growth over multiple growth regimes with an arbitrary stress ratio without user intervention or reme ...

  6. Erosion Resistance Coatings for Composite Propulsor/Fan Blades

    SBC: HONTEK CORP.            Topic: N07097

    Fiber glass reinforced polymers (FRP) are used in building the structural components for ships and aircraft. As a structural part, these materials are very rigid and strong. However, they do not perform well in a cavitating environment, and they can be eroded by sand or rain fairly quickly. These deficiencies are especially serious for the propulsion and lift fans for air-cushion vehicles such as ...

  7. Inverse Autofrettage for Titanium Hydraulic Tubing

    SBC: FLIGHTWARE INC            Topic: N092120

    “Inverse Autofrettage” is an adaptation of the century old autofrettage method used to generate residual compressive stresses at the inner surface of thick walled tubes like cannon barrels. It relies upon briefly exposing formed hydraulic tubing (which is thin wall, in this case) to very high hydrostatic pressure in a specific manner that results in large residual hoop compression strain. With ...

  8. Low Cost Foil Bearing Supported Helium Circulation Fan

    SBC: R&D Dynamics Corporation            Topic: N091054

    A low-cost helium circulator will be designed and demonstrated for use in High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) systems. The circulator design will feature an oil-free high-speed rotor supported on foil gas bearings. The basis for this design has been extensively used and demonstrated by R&D Dynamics in other applications e.g. fuel cells, at very high temperatures, up to 700 deg. C. In Phase I th ...

  9. Optical Coatings for Deep Concave Surface

    SBC: RUGATE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: N091028

    Anti-reflection coating of ogive shaped optics presents a number of technical challenges. The principle challenge is obtaining a uniform high transmission coating on a strongly curved surface. The coating must perform well over a wide range of angles. If the optic is exposed to ambient conditions, it must be resistant to rain and dust impact, as well as rapid changes in temperature. The proposed p ...

  10. Automatic User Interface Configuration Management

    SBC: Rite-solutions, Inc.            Topic: N091061

    Rite-Solutions is please to respond to the Navy’s need for improvements in the development and management of submarine combat systems user interfaces. Rite-Solutions is proposing a new user interface design paradigm that incorporates both user interface design principles and automated user interface development and configuration management . This combination will radically improve how user inter ...
