Operation of an auto‐initiated pulsed plasma thruster
Abhijit Kushari, Kelvin LohThe purpose of this paper is to develop and characterize a pulsed plasma thruster (PPT) that does not need a spark plug to initiate the plasma discharge.
Experimental study of water hydraulics application in aviation
Patrick S.K. Chua, F.L. TanThe purpose of this paper is to report an experimental study on the effects of various parameters, such as varying flow velocities of water in the pipe, insulating the water pipe…
Boundary layer effects on a wing in ground‐effect
D.W. Marshall, S.J. Newman, C.B. WilliamsThe purpose of this paper is to investigate the effect a variety of different boundary layers have on a wing in ground‐effect.
Fast trajectory planning based on in‐flight waypoints for unmanned aerial vehicles
