High Performance Cooled Seeker Window
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: MDA17005Infrared (IR) windows operating in the environment experienced by endo-atmospheric interceptors are limited in performance by the high heat fluxes, temperatures, and pressures characteristic of these environments. Window temperature can exceed 900 C from exposure to the high heat fluxes and temperatures associated with hypersonic flight. Existing materials are limited by poor mechanical and optica ...

Electron Beam Additive Manufacturing of Upper Stage Propellant Tanks
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: MDA18021This program is significant in that it represents a leap forward in electron beam (Ebeam) processes as well as liquid propellant tank designs. Mainstream will demonstrate the technical feasibility of Ebeam additive manufacturing (AM) for upper-stage liquid propellant tanks with Mainstream’s EBEAM facility by fabricating test coupons and subscale prototype components from novel materials. We will ...

Multi-Physics Analysis Tool for High-Energy Gas Lasers
SBC: Material Flow Solutions, Inc. Topic: MDA16T001Based on the results of our Phase I work, one significant barrier to optimizing battery performance lies in understanding the relationship between bulk solids and particle flow properties and the flow into the die. Our hypothesis: an increase in quality batteries production can be achieved if powder preparation process can be optimized and the die filling process controlled. We feel that control o ...

Performance Optimized Hierarchical Microstructure Propellant for Future Small Interceptor Rocket Motors
SBC: HELICON CHEMICAL COMPANY LLC Topic: MDA18004Future interceptors would benefit from advanced propulsion capabilities, with higher performance in smaller, volume-constrained systems. Innovative propellant chemistry is needed to enable substantially greater performance in smaller packages. One factor limiting the maximum performance achievable in modern solid propellants is the slow ignition and combustion of the propellant’s metal fuel part ...

Advanced Development of Inception Technologies for Requirements Management (ADIT-RM)
SBC: MODUS OPERANDI, INC. Topic: MDA11030Preliminary definition and analysis of Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) requirements in an isolated, manual, and loosely controlled change environment shows significant overlap in effort, resulting in a major increase to cost, schedule, mission classification, subsystem propagation, and trace of system impacts. To assist MDA with movement of BMDS mission objectives to mission requirements, ...

Advanced Electroanalytical Methods for Failure Mode Analysis and Screening of Base Metal Capacitors
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: MDA14T003Over 95% of the multilayer ceramic capacitors manufactured worldwide use base metal electrode (BME) technology and they are one of the key components in much of the modern electronics. BME capacitors have, over the last 20 years, made significant improvements in performance and reliability; making them more competitive for a wide range of applications. However, there remains significant concerns ...

Weapon Inspection Sustainment and Recording Device (WISARD)
SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP Topic: MDA14T001The process by which weapon systems go from point of manufacture to field usage is not a simple one. Devices can be held in storage for decades before use, and they can be subjected to significant and potentially damaging environmental conditions throughout the systems lifecycle. Latent and intermittent failures occur, and it is difficult to detect these malfunctions without actively monitoring ...

Security Improvements for Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs)
SBC: The Athena Group, Inc. Topic: MDA13010In this Phase II SBIR project, The Athena Group, Inc., will develop an innovative technology to improve the security of field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). This technology will be realized as a customizable intellectual property (IP) block that can be readily included in FPGA designs, will consume minimal hardware resources, and will have a negligible impact on the performance of the device. ...

Power System for Airborne High Energy Laser (HEL)
SBC: Florida Turbine Technologies Inc. Topic: MDA13021FTT proposes the detail design and test of a prototype rocket-based turbogenerator for high energy laser and other directed energy weapon applications. During phase I, FTT showed significant performance advantages for the rocket-based turbogenerator over energy storage devices and traditional gas-turbine based systems. The proposed phase II scope includes detail design, analysis, and ground test ...

BMDS Aggregate Semantic Store (BASS)
SBC: MODUS OPERANDI, INC. Topic: MDA14010Legacy database systems often exhibit the feature of being stove piped and difficult to integrate over time. This is because they were often developed for ad hoc purposes for specific groups, thus their data models and inherent structure is not always well understood except by a select few people who designed and built the database. This means data retrieval using these legacy systems is a chall ...
