A laser-microfabricated electrohydrodynamic thruster for centimeter-scale aerial robots [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 To date, insect scale robots capable of controlled flight have used flapping-wings for generating lift, but this requires a complex and failure-prone mechanism.

Multiparameter Collaborative Optimization and Analysis of the Non-Penetrating Tunnel Thruster
Journal of Marine Science and EngineeringA brand new non-penetrating tunnel thruster (short for NPT thruster) is proposed in this paper. The tunnel structural parameters of the thruster are optimized, and the performance and optimization effect are verified by experiments. First, the design and

Modelling Rocket System Performance Parameters
Academy Journal of Science and Engineering, 2022 What distinguishes the rocket system from airbreathing engines is that the rocket carries its own propellants, fuel and oxidants. The modern rocket was originally developed for ballistic missiles.

Self consistent kinetic simulations of SPT and HEMP thrusters including the near-field plume region
, 2009 The Particle-in-Cell (PIC) method was used to study two different ion thruster concepts - Stationary Plasma Thrusters (SPT) and High Efficiency Multistage Plasma Thrusters (HEMP-T), in particular the plasma properties in the discharge chamber due to the ...

System analysis and test-bed for an atmosphere-breathing electric propulsion system using an inductive plasma thruster [PDF]
Acta Astronautica, 2018 Challenging space mission scenarios include those in low altitude orbits, where the atmosphere creates significant drag to the S/C and forces their orbit to an early decay.
