Propellers

2012
Publisher Summary This chapter explains the workings and efficiencies of a propeller. It first discusses the classic momentum theory where the thrust is distributed uniformly all over the actuator disc with no rotation of the disc. In the Blade element theory the velocities and differential forces acting on the element of the propeller blade are shown.

Motorboat Propeller Injuries

Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2000
Abstract The authors anlayze the case of an Albanian refugee who was killed by the propellers of the outboard engine of a rubber dinghy while illegally attempting to reach Italy. The finding of multiple parallel, deep clear-cut injuries is uncommon, but highly characteristic of the object producing the lesions.

Propeller Injuries

Southern Medical Journal, 1976
Water skiing, boat racing, skin and scuba diving, and pleasure boat cruising are increasing in popularity. As a result the incidence of injuries secondary to motor propellers is becoming more frequent. In a ten-year period from 1963 to 1973, I collected a total of nine cases.

Experimental Investigation on High Strain Rate Tensile Behaviors of HTPB Propellant at Low Temperatures

, 2015
To study the high strain rate tensile behaviors of hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) propellant at low temperatures, uniaxial tensile tests were conducted at different strain rates (0.4–42.86 s−1) and temperatures (233–298 K) using an INSTRON ...

A graphene titanium dioxide nanocomposite (GTNC): one pot green synthesis and its application in a solid rocket propellant

, 2015
A green process was developed for a graphene–titanium dioxide nanocomposite (GTNC) synthesis by dispersing titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles and graphene nano-sheets (GNSs) in ethanol via ultrasonication followed by microwave irradiation.
