הפקולטה להנדסת אווירונוטיקה וחלל בטכניון ע"ש סטיבן ב. קליין היא מרכז אקדמי ברמה עולמית לאוירונוטיקה ואסטרונאוטיקה, המוקדש ליצירה, הרחבה והפצה של רעיונות וידע במדעי התעופה והחלל.
Shavit Attar | This study demonstrates closed-loop control of the shock train leading-edge location in a dual-mode scramjet combustor using fuel-injection distribution as the control input. Experiments were performed in a direct-connect, cavity-stabilized combustor with distributed ethylene injection.
Saar Levi | Hypergolic propellants are defined by their ability to ignite immediately upon contact, resulting in rapid exothermic reactions occurring without the need for an external ignition source. In hybrid rocket engines, this spontaneous reaction simplifies thruster management, reduces system mass, and enables engine re-ignition.
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are known to be advantageous for many applications in security, monitoring of natural risks of environment, management of ground installations, and agriculture. In recent years, the...
Differential Games for pursuit evasion problems have been investigated for many years. Differential games, with linear state equations and quadratic cost functions, are called Linear Quadratic Differential Game (LQDG). In...
Hybrid rocket systems have the potential to high performance and wide operational capabilities, as well as throttling and shutdown. An essential component in any rocket system is the ignition mechanism....
Solar radiation pressure (SRP) is a caused by photons transferring their momentum to the satellite. The magnitudes of atmospheric drag and SRP are similar for spacecraft in circular orbits at...
Solid propellants comprised of aluminum and water show high theoretical energetic performance and are considered environmentally friendly, since the burning products contain non-toxic and carbon-free materials (aluminum oxide – Al2O3,...
Most sharks are heavier than the water they swim in and therefore must generate hydrodynamic lift to compensate for the lack of buoyancy. To this end, they can use many...
