Develop a concept for an end-to-end design of a redesigned ADC Mk 2 Mod 6 that meets the operational requirements of the current device, but only meets the environmental requirements for over-the-side shipboard launch, of which are noted in the description. Include, in the design, details of the modularized reconfiguration of the existing acoustic projector, electronics, and thermal lithium power ...

Develop an end-to-end design and implementation concept for a coordinated countermeasure using acoustic or non-acoustic technologies, including (1) receiver technologies and (2) on-board electronics that are powered by the same power supplies currently in use by the legacy devices: either thermal lithium like the ADC MK 2 MOD 7, or silver chloride seawater activated battery like the ADC MK 3 MOD 1 ...

Develop a concept for an innovative acoustically transparent mid-frequency SONAR projector. Demonstrate that the concept can feasibly meet requirements in the Description through modeling and simulation or analysis. The Phase I Option, if exercised, shall include the initial system specifications, models and capabilities description to build a prototype solution in Phase II

The broader impact of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project is a new way to prepare samples for life sciences research by addressing the major bottleneck in the associated workflow. The proposed work advances a new method to prepare biological samples for analysis to develop crisp, high-resolution 3D models of molecules. This will result faster acquisition of higher quali ...

Response Technologies’ goal is to provide the DLA and the USAF with qualified self-sealing fuel cells for the A-10 aircraft platform. A bi-product of this effort will be proven tank constructions for other legacy aircraft and the future vertical lift. This Phase I’s effort spans three to six months and is characterized by identifying and documenting all requirements and test methods to qualify ...

ROM Development Corporation (ROM) is proposing a light, corrosion-proof, seaworthy, all-composite 8 meter (26 foot) autonomously controlled catamaran for the next generation Small High-Speed Amphibious Role-Variant Craft (SHARC).  This amphibious vessel an ideal design for meeting the speed, payload, and sea state requirements for Expeditionary Advanced Basing Operations (EABO) and Littoral Opera ...

The objective of this efforts is to introduce new, improved knit technology to provide more comfortable knitwear for the Sailor by improving fit, increasing air permeability, wicking away moisture, reducing seams and chafing, reducing bulk, and providing the potential for increased protection (Flame Resistant (FR) and No Melt/No Drip) while reducing waste and saving time and money for the Governme ...

Via the utilization of an innovative and unique sensor technology integrated into military condition-based maintenance monitoring systems, our company proposes to assist the US Air Force to enhance its monitoring and modeling capabilities for the benefit of military assets corrosion analysis & maintenance. The AFRL states that “Knowing the concentrations of potential corrosive factors in a given ...

Emerging hypersonic vehicles rely heavily on advanced, highly engineered materials to ensure their survivability under the extreme conditions under which they must operate.  Understanding the performance of these materials both within and beyond the lab is critical to ensuring the DoD maintains its technology superiority in this domain.  While simulation, modeling, and laboratory-based testing a ...

The objectives of this Phase II study are to develop a complete end-to-end capability for the operational hazard assessment modeling within limnological systems for all of CONUS and to develop preliminary techniques to determine limnological water quality parameters of OCONUS systems, allowing for the eventual hazard assessment modeling in denied or restricted regions. Achieving these objectives w ...
