Mississippi Polymer Technologies Inc. (MPT) proposes to develop a new generation of polymeric lightweight ammunition for the use by the services. Previous efforts to develop polymer cased ammunition have failed primarily because of problems associatedwith choice of case materials. During Phase I, MPT will execute a thorough survey of the available polymers and processing techniques, followed by ...

This Phase 1 SBIR Proposal entitled

The Static Induction Transistor (SIT) is a vertical MESFET or JFET type device, which has the gates close together resulting in space charge limited current conduction. Unlike a bipolar junction transistor (BJT), the SIT is a majority carrier device, isvoltage-controlled, and often gives higher breakdown voltage and input impedance. While most SIT development has occurred in Si, renewed interest i ...

The goal of this proposal is to lay the ground work for the insertion of SiC static induction transistors (SIT) in missle defense radars. The insertion of SiC SIT's would increase system reliability and power while lowering repair/logistics costs ofthese critical systems, therefore paying back the cost of development. Phase two of this effort if funded, would supply sample quantities of devices t ...

hyIn order to meet the higher order accuracy requirements of Counter Proliferation community, Essential Knowledge Systems in collaboration with its consultant Dr. Z. U. A. Warsi will develop an accuracy selectable suite of flow solvers suitable forincompressible flow analysis with a liquid equation of state. Modern software design principles including a component-based model will be used. These su ...

Delta Data Systems, Inc. (DDS), a key developer and supplier of GIS technology to clients such as NASA, COE, NOS, etc. and Neptune Sciences, Inc. (NSI), a developer of the Navy Surf Model and other nearshore related products, will combine their expertise to develop a Marine Geographical Information Systems. Presently, no one method exists to adequately assess the coastal environment. Large datab ...

Seemann Composites, Inc. (SCI), as the prime contractor, Materials Science Corporation (MSC) and McDonnell Douglas Phantom Works as subcontractors, propose to develop an advanced composite structure which will be significantly lighter, tougher and more reliable than previous hull structures and which can be built at a lower cost than conventional construction. Furthermore, problems with quality ...
