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.
We study hydrodynamic efficiency of a slender fish furnished a with separated caudal fin that swims by flexing its body (say, left-right). Most fish look and swim that way. Hydrodynamic...
The MRO (Maintenance, Repair, Overhaul) principles for the Graduated Aeronautical Engineers are essential. The design engineers should consider two issues while performing the design of airborne vehicles: Airworthiness and life...
In many civil and military missions unmanned vehicles may be expected to cooperate with each other and act as a team. Two main aspects of the cooperation are addressed in...
Understanding the spray ignition process is of utmost importance due to the fact that modern combustors in aircraft need to be (re)-ignited under a wide range of (sometimes extreme) operating...
The need to reduce the size of large discrete models is a reoccurring theme in computational mechanics in recent years. One situation which calls for such a reduction is that...
In recent years, there has been a tremendous growth in the unmanned aerial system market, for various operational requirements and scenarios. Moreover, in nowadays the demands are also derived in...
There are two main approaches to design autopilot and guidance systems: “Single-Loop” and “Two-Loop”. In the “Single-Loop” approach there is no definite autopilot, and the guidance command is applied directly...
