Pulsed Plasma Thrusters (PPT) are an established technology for compact thrust propulsion systems. Although PPT optimization has been performed previously it requires complex numerical codes. Although the scaling laws have been suggested they mainly applicable for large thrusters when edge effects can be neglected. A new 0D pulsed inductive acceleration model has been developed which links toge...

Abstract Deformation affecting the Upper Triassic Dachstein Limestone has been analyzed in thrust sheet, uppermost unit of central Northern Calcareous Alps (Eastern Alps). Different scales deformation are discussed, from kilometer-scale thrusting down to folds order tens meters meters. Observations based on both conventional outcrop observations and digital fieldwork performed drone-captured vi...

High-resolution 2D seismic data from the western side of Dogger Bank (North Sea) has revealed that glacigenic sediments Formation record a complex history sedimentation and penecontemporaneous, large-scale, ice-marginal to proglacial glacitectonism. The resulting assemblage glacial landforms interplay between two separate ice masses revealing Late Devensian sheet dynamics across were far more t...

In this paper, a new design of permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM) for electromagnetic launcher system (EMLs) has been investigated in terms of the requisite amount of average launching thrust force and thrust force ripple minimization through finite element method. EMLs are a kind of technology used to develop thrust force and launch heavy loads with different applications includ...

The Semail Thrust in the Oman-UAE mountains is mapped along base of Ophiolite, a 10–15 km thick sequence Cenomanian oceanic crust and upper mantle emplaced from NE to SW onto previously passive, Mid-Permian continental margin Oman. juxtaposition ophiolite with range different rock types sourced depths suggest complex tectonic history for this major fault shear zone. Here we summarize previous w...

Triassic eclogite and blueschist facies rocks occur as a thrust sheet, 25-km long and over 2-km thick, in an Eocene fold-andthrust belt in northwest Turkey along the İzmir–Ankara suture. The thrust sheet consists mainly of metabasites with minor marble, phyllite and metachert, and rare lenses of serpentinite. The common blueschist facies mineral assemblage in the metabasites is sodic amphibole ...
