Voith Propulsion You must be wondering why a propulsion system has popped into the discussion when we are interested in rudder systems. Well, that’s something you need to thank the researchers for. Because this propulsion system is one of a kind, which acts as a rudder itself. It doesn’t...
A jet engine uses the same scientific principle as a car engine: it burns fuel with air (in a chemical reaction called combustion) to release energy that powers a plane, vehicle, or other machine. But instead of using cylinders that go through four steps in turn, it uses a long metal ...

Even this safety margin was felt by many to be inadequate, for the radioactive blast of a nuclear propulsion unit could cover that distance in less than a minute. (ed note: this implies an exhaust velocity of about 16,000 meters per second. This could be done by a liquid or gas core...
The quieter propulsion systems, comparable performance and lack of exhaust mess all over the airframe should make electric much more enticing. In fact, in some places, E-power may be mandatory in order to keep flying fields.If you are a beginner and you plan to fly a gas-powered trainer,...
One of the main types of aircraft instruments isgyroscopic instruments. These instruments are used to determine information about the orientation of the plane and whether or not that orientation is ideal. Gyroscopic instruments are the category for at least half of the ''6 pack instruments'' that...
The vessel’s preliminary design outlines its dimensions, stability, displacement, propulsion, hull type, general arrangement and structural information. All these parameters are decided according to the ship type. The different types of Merchant Navy Ships will be discussed in this article. ...
This chapter provides an overview of the common types of defects found in various structural materials and joints in aircraft. Materials manufacturing methods (including large-scale production) have been established in the aircraft industry. However, as will be seen in this chapter, manufacturing defec...
- Aiaa/asme/sae/asee Joint Propulsion Conference & Exhibit 被引量: 8发表: 2003年 On the area of the graph of a piecewise smooth map from the plane to the plane with a curve discontinuity In this paper we provide an estimate from above for the value of the relaxed area functional A(u...
Propeller and propulsion arrangement ( for a powered model) What are the Ship Models made up of? Now the question arises, what are the ship models made up of? Of course, ship models are not made up of the same material as that of the main ship, i.e. mild steel or high strength st...
