Effect of cyclic loads on structural damage of rocket propellant grain [PDF]
Rocket motor propellant grain, cast or bonded into the motor chamber or solid coating, is exposed to various loads during its service life. Rocket propellant is a viscoelastic material, whose mechanical properties strongly depend on temperature and ...

Designing the bioproduction of Martian rocket propellant via a biotechnology-enabled in situ resource utilization strategy [PDF]
Returning from Mars to Earth requires propellant. The authors propose a biotechnology-enabled in situ resource utilization (bioISRU) process to produce a Mars specific rocket propellant, 2,3-butanediol, using cyanobacteria and engineered E.

Research on Vision-based Position Measurement System for Rocket Propellant Loading [PDF]
In the process of rocket propellant loading, the propellant's own gravity and wind pendulum may cause the connector to exert a large force on the rocket body, which may lead to connector disconnection and fuel leakage, or even damage to the rocket body ...
