A Study on Dynamic Characteristics of Thin-Walled Cylindrical Cavities with a Large Aspect Ratio

open access: yesAerospace, 2022
The unstable combustion problem in small-sized solid rocket engines with a large aspect ratio is so complicated that its causes remain unclear. In this study, the coupled vibration between the sound field and shell in the engines was proposed as a ...

Servo-stabilization of combustion in rocket motors [PDF]

open access: yes, 1952
This paper shows that the combustion in the rocket motor can be stabilized against any value of time lag in combustion by a feedback servo link from a chamber pressure pickup, through an appropriately designed amplifier, to a control capacitance on the ...

Feline‐Inspired Robot Enabled by Combustion‐Driven Actuators for Agile Motion and High‐Payload Obstacle Traversal

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by nature's competitive maneuvers, this study introduces a combustion‐driven soft actuator that powers a multi‐modal “Jump‐and‐Fly Catbot” (JFC). With millisecond response, high‐force output (over 70 times its weight) and precise control (error within 5%), the robot can jump, fly, hover, and escape from challenging environments, achieving ...

Kinetic Compensation of Barrel Launch Under High‐Speed Solid‐Phase Particulate Impacts

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT An accurate launch‐dynamics computational method is critical for barrel weapon service life assessment and multiphase physics field refinement. Given the lack of studies on the solid‐phase buildup behavior at the projectile base, this paper provides an improved method for calculating the launching dynamics under high pressure and high speed ...
