Synchronized Initiation of Two Cylindrical Rotating Detonation Engines [PDF]
A coupled cylindrical rotating detonation engine (RDE) with two cylindrical RDEs (both combustors had a combustor inner diameter of 23 mm and an axial length of 30 mm) placed next to each other was tested for rocket clustering application.

Impact of an Exhaust Throat on Semi-Idealized Rotating Detonation Engine Performance [PDF]
A computational fluid dynamic (CFD) model of a rotating detonation engine (RDE) is used to examine the impact of an exhaust throat (i.e., a constriction) on performance.

Influence of fuel inhomogeneity on detonation wave propagation in a rotating detonation combustor
AbstractRotating detonation combustor (RDC) is a form of pressure gain combustion, which is thermodynamically more efficient than the traditional constant-pressure combustors. In most RDCs, the fuel–air mixture is not perfectly premixed and results in inhomogeneous mixing within the domain.

Ejector Enhanced Pulsejet Based Pressure Gain Combustors: An Old Idea With a New Twist [PDF]
An experimental investigation of pressure-gain combustion for gas turbine application is described. The test article consists of an off-the-shelf valved pulsejet, and an optimized ejector, both housed within a shroud.
