The applicability of MFD thrusters to satellite power systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
The high power self field MPD thruster uses electromagnetic forces rather than electrostatic to accelerate a neutral plasma. The most attractive application of MPD thrusters to satellite power systems is in the area of electric propulsion for a cargo ...

The Effect of Chemical Reactivity on the Formation of Gaseous Oblique Detonation Waves

open access: yesAerospace, 2019
High-fidelity numerical simulations using a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU)-based solver are performed to investigate oblique detonations induced by a two-dimensional, semi-infinite wedge using an idealized model with the reactive Euler equations coupled ...

Biomechanical Analysis on Skilled Badminton Players during Take-Off Phase in Forehand Overhead Strokes: A Pilot Study

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Different movement speeds can contribute to different joint loading in sports. Joint contact force is the actual force acting on the articular surface, which could predict performance and injury, but is rarely reported for badminton overhead strokes ...

A new propulsion concept for high propulsive hydrodynamic efficiency

open access: yesOcean Engineering, 2022
A novel marine propulsor concept is presented for high hydrodynamic efficiency. Optimum performance is sought by thrust-producing counter-flapping foils cyclically oscillating along a closed trajectory. The thrusting device exhibits low propulsion loading and low viscous losses.

Circulating tumor DNA monitoring and blood tumor mutational burden in patients with metastatic solid tumors treated with atezolizumab

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In patients treated with atezolizumab as a part of the MyPathway (NCT02091141) trial, pre‐treatment ctDNA tumor fraction at high levels was associated with poor outcomes (radiographic response, progression‐free survival, and overall survival) but better sensitivity for blood tumor mutational burden (bTMB).

Ramjet Nozzle Analysis for Transport Aircraft Configuration for Sustained Hypersonic Flight

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2018
For the past several decades, research dealing with hypersonic flight regimes has been restricted mainly to military applications. Hypersonic transportation could be a possible and affordable solution to travel in the medium term and there is renewed ...

Study on Applicability of Energy-Saving Devices to Hydrogen Fuel Cell-Powered Ships

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The decarbonisation of waterborne transport is arguably the biggest challenge faced by the maritime industry presently. By 2050, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the shipping industry by 50 ...
