A combined finite element and phase‐field approach predicts the evolution of microstructure during the directional solidification of Ni‐based superalloys. The model reveals how withdrawal rate, temperature gradient, and wall thickness control the dendrite spacing, highlighting the strong effect of surface regions in thin sections where dendrite growth ...

Measurement and diagnosis of miniaturized ion thruster plume
A planar Langmuir probe, which can be used for both ion electric propulsion beam characteristics measurement and plasma diagnosis, was developed and applied to plume measurement and diagnosis experiments of an 8 cm Kaufman ion thruster to address the ...

Investigating the neutralizer cathode location in the SPT type Hall Effect thruster [PDF]
The position of the cathode concerning the magnetic field map inside the discharge channel affects the performance and lifetime of the Hall effect thruster. The neutralizer cathode has two important functions in the Hall effect thruster.

Some Problems of Berthing of Ships with Non-conventional Propulsions [PDF]
The berthing manoeuvre of ship is the last stage of navigation process. The safety of berthing depends on velocity due impact the quay. In case of ships with non-conventional propulsion (mainly two stern screws and few thrust propellers) the berthing ...

Local optimization of thruster configuration based on a synthesized positioning capability criterion
DPCap analysis can assist in determining the maximum environmental forces the DP system can counteract for a given heading. DPCap analysis results are highly affected by the thrust forces provided by the thrust system which consists of several kinds of ...

In Situ Micromechanical Study of Bimodal γ′–γ″ Precipitate Assemblies in Ni–Cr–Al–Nb Superalloy
A Ni–Cr–Al–Nb superalloy with a bimodal γ′–γ″ precipitate distribution is developed. Composite precipitate assemblies form through heterogeneous nucleation, effectively impeding dislocation motion. Micropillar compression reveals high strength at room and elevated temperatures, governed by precipitate shearing, with coupled faulting mechanisms ...
