State of the propulsive-group development for enhanced anti-armored guided missile [PDF]
Scientific Technical Review, 2018 The main propulsive group of anti-armor guided missile is reinforced by additional propulsive group with the aim to increase the range. Final concept of the propulsion has been adopted after consideration of several proposed solutions.

Hybrid propulsion technology program: Phase 1. Volume 3: Thiokol Corporation Space Operations [PDF]
Three candidate hybrid propulsion (HP) concepts were identified, optimized, evaluated, and refined through an iterative process that continually forced improvement to the systems with respect to safety, reliability, cost, and performance criteria. A full

Cold Flow Determination of the Internal Flow Environment Around the Submerged TVC Nozzle for the Space Shuttle SRM [PDF]
A series of subscale cold flow tests was performed to quantify the gas flow characteristics at the aft end of the Space Shuttle Solid Rocket Motor. This information was used to support the analyses of the redesigned nozzle/case joint.

Low thrust monopropellant engine [PDF]
, 1981 The engine has a conventional body and nozzle configuration. The monopropellant fuel is fed into the thruster with dual injection tubes via an injector shell with dual spray jets. The spray jets are positioned generally opposed to each other.
