Linear force and moment equations for an annular smooth shaft seal perturbed both angularly and laterally [PDF]

open access: yes, 1982
Coefficients are derived for equations expressing the lateral force and pitching moments associated with both planar translation and angular perturbations from a nominally centered rotating shaft with respect to a stationary seal.

HYBRID ROCKET ENGINE TEST FACILITY DESIGN

open access: yesHavacılık ve Uzay Teknolojileri Dergisi, 2016
Hybrid rocket engines is relatively less researched subject of chemical rockets. Using fuel and oxidizer in different phases hybrids are safe and cheap. Yet, they are not generating enogh thrust to deliver heavy payloads to edge of space.

Fuel Ignition in HTP Hybrid Rockets at Very Low Mass Fluxes: Challenges and Pulsed Preheating Techniques Using Palladium-Coated Catalysts

open access: yesAerospace
In a worldwide scenario which sees an increasing number of small satellite launches, novel mission concepts may be unlocked providing the spacecrafts with the very precise and rapid maneuvering capability that electric thrusters cannot guarantee. In this

Project LOCOST: Laser or Chemical Hybrid Orbital Space Transport [PDF]

open access: yes
A potential mission in the late 1990s is the servicing of spacecraft assets located in GEO. The Geosynchronous Operations Support Center (GeoShack) will be supported by a space transfer vehicle based at the Space Station (SS).
