Viscosity and Regression Rate of Liquefying Hybrid Rocket Fuels
The combustion behavior of paraffin-based hybrid rocket fuels with gaseous oxygen as an oxidizer has been analyzed in detail. Regression rate tests have been done in a two-dimensional radial microburner at the DLR, German Aerospace Center and at the Space Propulsion Laboratory.

Physics of puffing and microexplosion of emulsion fuel droplets [PDF]
The physics of water-in-oil emulsion droplet microexplosion/puffing has been investigated using high-fidelity interface-capturing simulation. Varying the dispersed-phase (water) sub-droplet size/location and the initiation location of explosive boiling ...

Testing and Modeling Fuel Regression Rate in a Miniature Hybrid Burner
Ballistic characterization of an extended group of innovative HTPB-based solid fuel formulations for hybrid rocket propulsion was performed in a lab-scale burner. An optical time-resolved technique was used to assess the quasisteady regression history of

Detection of Anomalous Reactor Activity Using Antineutrino Count Rate Evolution Over the Course of a Reactor Cycle [PDF]
This paper analyzes the sensitivity of antineutrino count rate measurements to changes in the fissile content of civil power reactors. Such measurements may be useful in IAEA reactor safeguards applications. We introduce a hypothesis testing procedure to

Validation of Integral Method for Numerical Prediction of Hybrid Rocket Internal Ballistics
In order to design hybrid rocket engines, we developed a numerical prediction method which describes the internal ballistics, thus the solid fuel regression rate. In order to obtain a fast code, simple but efficient models have been implemented.

Numerical Investigation on Hybrid Rocket Motors with Star-Segmented Rotation Grain
A novel fuel grain configuration comprising two star-segmented grains is proposed. The effect of the rotation, mid-chamber length, and segmented position on the fuel regression rate and the combustion efficiency in hybrid rocket motors with star ...

Network effects of intelligent speed adaptation systems [PDF]
Intelligent Speed Adaptation (ISA) systems use in-vehicle electronic devices to enable the speed of vehicles to be regulated externally. They are increasingly appreciated as a flexible method for speed management and control, particularly in urban areas.
