Award Data

Increasing system capabilities in terms of weapon systems, ISR payloads, GNC, etc., enabled by smaller and more capable electronics systems have led to a trend for overall size reduction in military aircraft. This has resulted in a reduction in the avail...

In this Phase 1 proposal, Vuronyx Technologies in collaboration with Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta (GT) intends to fabricate composite panels using high strength and high modulus carbon fibers synthesized from polyacrylonitrile (PAN) precursor...

There are many challenges in creating Air Force systems that are resilient against cyber threats. The cyber environment and its threats are highly dynamic, requiring practices and training to be dynamic as well. Cyber threats must be considered during th...

Tensile-strained germanium tin structures will be developed for infrared emitters and detectors that are compatible with silicon fabrication processes.Optical detectors in the wavelength range of 2-5 microns will be developed by using GeSn on silicon ...

The Air Support Operations Center (ASOC) is a complex sociotechnical system that requires teams to coordinate to effectively manage both routine and crisis events. Maintaining readiness within this environment is challenging due to the variety of tasks a...

A diagnostic is proposed for obtaining instantaneous three-dimensional volumetric distributions of density in a flow field at velocities ranging from subsonic to supersonic. Two variants of laser-based Rayleigh scattering will be investigated, each of wh...

ExoAnalytic Solutions, teamed with Texas A&M University, will develop Highly-mobile Autonomous Rapidly Relocatable Integrated Electro-optical Resources (HARRIER) with the goal being to design and demonstrate tracking of resident space objects (RSOs) in n...

Busek Co. Inc. and The University of Notre Dame propose to develop room-temperature ionic liquids (ILs) that are robust, non-volatile, transparent, radiation hard, and atmospherically tolerant for use in electrolytes for reversible electroplating applica...

The Air Force is interested in developing technology that would enable long duration hypersonic flight with reusable aircraft. Hypersonic flow presents many design challenges that can be encapsulated into an aerothermoelastic problem, i.e., a complex dyn...

Next-generation intelligent engines will operate at higher temperatures for increased efficiency and will migrate from centralized to distributed control. There is critical need for sensors for operation at ultra-high temperatures (3000F). Conven...
