Award Data

Response Technologies (RT) intends to build upon its Phase I SBIR success, discussed in section 1.3 Related Work, by developing and demonstrating prototype fuel tank explosion suppression (FTES) materials capable of meeting MIL-PRF-87260B suppression capabilities, tear resistance, fuel and hydrolytic stability, and flammability requirements. When compared to the existing explosion suppression foam ...

The primary objective of this contract is to qualify the four H-53K fuel cells using the Response Technologies’ process. The four H-53K fuel cells are 1) Fuel Cell, RH, Aft, 2) Fuel Cell, LH, Aft, Fuel Cell, RH, Fwd, and Fuel Cell, LH, Fwd.

Advanced numerical simulations of fluid flow and solid/structural mechanics are often used to assess the vehicle or engine performance, to identify the mechanical factors that contribute to the shortening of their life span, and to suggest design modifications that improve efficiency and durability. The latter often results in significant cost savings to the DoD. As the vehicle and engine designs ...

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

A networked avian radar system is proposed for bird strike mitigation. A team consisting of Applied Radar as well as partners AscentXYZ and and Elsis will work with the 6th Air Mobility command U.S. Bird/Wildlife Aircraft Strike Hazard Team (BASH) stakeholders to customize the Avian Radar solution and provide a demonstration to prove its versatility and improvements over current AF equipment.

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 ...

Modern deep learning-based face recognition systems perform at or above human levels on high quality frontal imagery, but their performance suffers significantly on more operationally relevant imagery with confounding factors such as extreme pose.  This performance degradation is based on two primary shortcomings: poor match between training and test-time image data, and failure to model inherent ...

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 ...
