MODULAR IMPULSIVE GREEN MONOPROPELLANT PROPULSION SYSTEM (MIMPS-G): SYSTEM ANALYSIS AND PRELIMINARY DESIGN [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Propulsion systems for small-sized spacecraft are trending toward miniaturization and system modularity. Moreover, green propulsion is becoming the norm in space propulsion, particularly in CubeSats, due to the high performance and favorable physi ...

Soft Mechanical‐Electrical Logic Using Liquid Metal‐Filled 3D‐Printed Architectures

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
We present 3D‐printed soft mechanical–electrical logic elements that use liquid metal–filled silicone tubes actuated by thermoplastic polyurethane/polylactic acid (TPU/PLA) architectures to produce Boolean operations. Complementary normally open and normally closed unit cells perform repeatable binary transitions and can be combined into more complex ...

Characteristic analysis method for integrated multi-parameter hydro-viscous speed control system

open access: yesScientific Reports
Hydro-viscous clutch has become an inevitable choice for special vehicle transmissions. As a nonlinear dynamic system with large lagging link, its timing performance is affected by input rotational speed, lubricating oil temperature and pressure and ...

Effect of Compressor Root Slot Structure on Suppressing Corner Separation and Aerodynamic Parameter Deterioration Induced by Seal Cavity Leakage Flow

open access: yesAerospace
To alleviate the adverse effects of the flow-field structure caused by interstage sealing structures on the aerodynamic characteristics of compressor cascades, a blade-root through-slot structure was designed in this study.

Designing Electric Propulsion Systems for UAVs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Due to the advantages of electric motors and electric batteries, the electric propulsion systems are widely used in UAVs [1,2]. The UAV's performance and endurance, the payload capacity and the flight time of the vehicle are affected highly by the structure and design of the electric propulsion system. In this paper, a new systematic design methodology

Integrated electrical and mechanical modelling of integrated-full-electric-propulsion systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Integrated Full Electric Propulsion (IFEP) systems are the subject of much interest at present. Current research is focused on analysing and improving aspects of subsystem and system performance. However, there is a great need to look more widely at the `

Cathodic Cage Plasma Deposition of Nanostructured Cu–Fe–Se Coatings on Poly(methyl Methacrylate)

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Nanostructured Cu–Fe–Se coatings are deposited on PMMA by a modified cathodic cage plasma process, enabling low‐temperature deposition on polymer substrates. A transition from discontinuous to compact morphology is observed with temperature, with optimal properties at 200°C, where improved CuFeSe2‐type bonding, lowest sheet resistance, and favorable ...

Comparison of Guide to Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement and Monte Carlo Method for Evaluating Gauge Factor Calibration Test Uncertainty of High-Temperature Wire Strain Gauge

open access: yesSensors
High-temperature strain gauges are widely used in the strain monitoring of the hot-end components of aero-engines. In the application of strain gauges, the calibration of the gauge factor (GF) is the most critical link.

Carbon Flux Variability From a Relatively Simple Ecosystem Model With Assimilated Data Is Consistent With Terrestrial Biosphere Model Estimates

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
Modeling the net carbon balance is challenging due to the knowledge gaps in the variability and processes controlling gross carbon fluxes. Terrestrial carbon cycle modeling is susceptible to several sources of bias, including meteorological uncertainty ...
