Impact angle control of interplanetary shock geoeffectiveness [PDF]
AbstractWe use Open Geospace General Circulation Model global MHD simulations to study the nightside magnetospheric, magnetotail, and ionospheric responses to interplanetary (IP) fast forward shocks. Three cases are presented in this study: two inclined oblique shocks, hereafter IOS‐1 and IOS‐2, where the latter has a Mach number twice stronger than ...

Probing Magnetic Pulse Welding of Thin-Walled Tubes
Magnetic pulse welding is a solid-state joining technology, based on the use of electromagnetic forces to deform and to weld workpieces. Since no external heat sources are used during the magnetic pulse welding process, it offers important advantages for

Erosion Behaviour of API X100 Pipeline Steel at Various Impact Angles and Particle Speeds
Erosion is the gradual removal of material due to solid particle impingement and results in a failure of pipeline materials. In this study, a series of erosion tests were carried out to investigate the influence of particle speed and impact angle on the ...

Definition of Impact Angle and Impact Angle Control Law Against Maneuvering Target
In this paper, a guidance law for intercepting maneuvering target with a desired impact angle is proposed. The proposed guidance law is modified from the optimal impact angle control law for a fixed target and given by a biased PN law with the impact angle control term in addition to the conventional PN law.

Light's Bending Angle due to Black Holes: From the Photon Sphere to Infinity [PDF]
The bending angle of light is a central quantity in the theory of gravitational lensing. We develop an analytical perturbation framework for calculating the bending angle of light rays lensed by a Schwarzschild black hole.
