Experimental investigation of the axial oxidizer injectors geometry on a 1-kN paraffin-fueled hybrid rocket motor

open access: yesFirePhysChem, 2021
The showerhead is the most common type of injector used in hybrid rocket motors due to its design and manufacture simplicity. The main drawback of the showerheads (SH) is the relatively low performance in terms of combustion efficiency because of the ...

Designing High Performance Organic Donor Molecules for Photovoltaics

open access: yesAdvanced Theory and Simulations, EarlyView.
Systematically tuning the fusion pattern and length of the π$\pi$‐bridge, along with adjusting the electron‐withdrawing (EW) strength of the terminal groups in small‐molecule donor A-π-Core-π$\text{A-}\pi \text{-Core-}\pi$‐A architectures, enables predictable modulation of the system's opto‐electronic properties.

Feline‐Inspired Robot Enabled by Combustion‐Driven Actuators for Agile Motion and High‐Payload Obstacle Traversal

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by nature's competitive maneuvers, this study introduces a combustion‐driven soft actuator that powers a multi‐modal “Jump‐and‐Fly Catbot” (JFC). With millisecond response, high‐force output (over 70 times its weight) and precise control (error within 5%), the robot can jump, fly, hover, and escape from challenging environments, achieving ...

An Application of Analytical Target Cascading for a Hierarchical Multidisciplinary System: The Preliminary Design of a Launch Vehicle Powered by Hybrid Rocket Motors

open access: yesAerospace, 2022
Analytical target cascading (ATC) is a method for coordinating hierarchical system design optimization with a decomposition-based framework. Since a launch vehicle (LV) is usually powered by two or more stages of rocket motors, the overall design of the ...

Modified Regression Rate Formula of PMMA Combustion by a Single Plane Impinging Jet

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2017
A modified regression rate formula for the uppermost stage of CAMUI-type hybrid rocket motor is proposed in this study. Assuming a quasi-steady, one-dimensional, an energy balance against a control volume near the fuel surface is considered. Accordingly,
