Flight Range Extension of a Guided Aerial Bomb with a Rocket Engine during Climb Bombing

Development of Advanced Rocket Engine Technology for Precision Guided Missiles

The Army is developing hypergolic, liquid and gelled bipropellants for a small, selectable-thrust, liquid rocket engine (LRE) that can power tactical missiles for both current and future combat systems. The use of gel propellants brings the advantages of selectable thrust and the promise of small engine size but also introduces new challenges in combustion control. One of these challenges is th...

The Blacklight Rocket Engine

Executive Summary This report summarizes the final project results for the period of May 1, 2002 through November 30, 2002 for the NIAC CP 01-02 Phase I study, "The BlackLight Rocket Engine". The objective of the Phase I study was to assess the potential of low pressure, mixed gas hydrogen plasmas (i.e. the BlackLight Process) toward the development of high performance space propulsion systems.

Animal studies of the subgravity state during rocket flight.

I N T H E I R D I S C U S S I O N of man under gravity free conditions, Gauer and Haber G were the first to suggest that subgravity might lead to interesting physiological effects. They did not anticipate direct disturbances of respiration and of the circulation. However, they thought that the conflict between normal visual observations and the changed impulses from the labyrinth and propriocep...

a comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection

supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...
