The present work focuses on the study of low thrust propulsion systems. Cold gas, thermal and monopropellant systems with a blow down depressurisation mode have been taken in consideration in this study. Most of propella...

Sailing yachts can achieve operationally zero-emission propulsion by integrating solar photovoltaic (PV), wind and hydrokinetic generation with battery-electric drive systems. This study applies a systems engineering mod...

Abstract- Electric propulsion has a promising system to create new possibilities in this technological era as well as control the harmful gaseous emission. This paper put a vision on several parameters of electric propul...

This research paper focuses on the optimization of the propulsion system of a blended wing body design. Two different aspects of the design, the engine placement and count, and the engine itself, are investigated. The pr...

This paper presents an introductory overview of principles of the three-layer hierarchy of active fault-tolerance, providing, determination of the fault type with as many details as enough to get recoverable fault reason...

As in countless other fields of human endeavor, small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) have the potential to benefit pinniped (Pinnipedia; e.g., Phocidae [seals], Otariidae [sea lions], and Odobenidae [walruses]) respons...

No commercial airplane in service today is able to fly half great-circle distances over the globe and achieve the non-stop or the global range to any antipodal location on Earth. A subsonic jetliner has the optimum cruis...

Abstract: During the last years, several thrust control systems of aerospace rocket engines have been developed. The fluidic thrust vectoring is one of them; it is simple in design and offers a substantial gain in weigh...

With ever increasing concern on energy diversification, energy efficiency and environmental protection, electric vehicles (EVs) including the pure EV (PEV), hybrid EV (HEV) and fuel-cell EV (FEV) are becoming attractive ...

The lift generated by a translating wing of known translational speed, lift coefficient and area is calculated by a simple equation. A propeller or rotor generating thrust share the same aerodynamic principles but their ...

The purpose of this article is to investigate utilization of common-rail turbocharged diesel aero-engines as primary propulsion powerplant for light-to-medium helicopters and airplanes. This article summarizes the result...

In recent decades, alternative propulsion systems have been investigated and have attracted great interest in the space community. Most of these alternative propulsion systems need propellants. One alternative propulsion...

"We report extensive numerical simulations of the flow of anisotropic self-propelled particles through a constriction. In particular, we explore the role of the particles’ desired orientation with respect to the moving...

Abstract The adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs) has accelerated due to ongoing technological advancements, cost reductions, and a growing awareness of environmental issues. However, despite this progress, challenges per...

Excessive armature mass fraction in asynchronous induction coil thrusters critically constrains payload capacity and propulsion efficiency. This study addresses this limitation through two lightweight strategies: axial h...

"Orbital maneuvering of microsatellite and nanosatellite requirements can be efficiently addressed by planar nozzles, in which realtime thrust control is gained actuating on the nozzle throat area. In the present work, t...
