About this award

This contract award to Sheridan Solutions LLC, a veteran-owned small business, is for a Phase II SBIR (Small Business Innovation Research) effort related to the application of ultrasonic additive manufacturing (UAM) for creating metal matrix composites. The goal is to develop lightweight and multifunctional composite components in aerospace aluminum alloys, selectively reinforced with metal matrix composite, to improve the mechanical properties and reliability of space launch system structures. The $750,000 fixed-price contract is funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center and is expected to be completed by April 18, 2018. The contract is set aside for small businesses.

Description

The goal of this phase II sbir program is to demonstrate the application of ultrasonic additive manufacturing (UAM) solid state metal 3D printing to create new and innovative of metal matrix composites for selective reinforcement and lightweighting. Our intent is to enable space launch system structures with superior mechanical properties and increased reliability, and validate these advancements with third party testing. Specifically, this effort will develop lightweight and multifunctional composite components in aerospace aluminum alloys, selectively reinforced with metal matrix composite, and study the effect of embedding on structural integrity using UAM-embedded mechanical strain gauges. With NASA guidance, the project team phase II plan is to select and develop functional prototypes of space launch system structures to illustrate efficient space vehicle concepts. A demonstration unit will be delivered to NASA for testing at the completion of the phase II contract.
