The 4450 lb weight BLU-122 deep penetrating bomb was developed by the U.S. Air Force in 2003 making improvements upon the BLU-113 penetrator which would enable it to have significant penetration through hard targets. The weapon incorporates ~ 780 lb of energetic explosive filling,
The project "Revolutionary De-icing Technologies for Enhanced Aerodynamic Performance in Aerospace and Renewable Energy Structures" presents an innovative approach to addressing the challenges associated with ice accumulation on aerodynamic surfaces. This project is submitted for the prestigious Create the Future Design Contest, which recognizes groundbreaking advancements in design and engineering.
This revolutionary repulsive gravity toroidal generator/motor uses a ferrofluid at low temperatures to shield the force of gravity in its range.
It is part of the study of "magnetohydrodynamic thrusters" (acronym MHD), which concern the physics of magneto-fluid dynamics, known for the study of the movement of electrically conducting fluids,
For safety critical airborne systems, the minimum reliability requirements are of the order of one allowable failure in one million flight hours. This implies that almost two thirds of cost and time for design and development is devoted to complying with certification requirements of the aviation regulatory authorities. The recommended design practices have two distinct categories.
The Liconic Power Unit (LPU) is an innovative energy solution that aims to replace traditional battery systems in various sectors, including drones, electric vehicles, and industries. The LPU uses ethanol, a renewable and eco-friendly biofuel, as its energy source, providing several advantages over traditional batteries.
The LPU addresses the limitations of conventional batteries, such as limited autonomy,
Significant innovations in Rendezvous, Proximity Operations, On-Orbit Servicing, and small satellite docking are required to enable the booming space economy. These technologies enable small spacecraft to trade goods and services with each other in their relevant working environments, whether Low Earth Orbit (LEO), Cislunar Space, or Deep Space.
PBI deployable parabolic antenna systems present a new paradigm in satellite communications enabling (very) large aperture antennas used even with cubesats.
The antennas are based on shape memory materials ‘married’ to heat pipe technology.
In the aviation industry, sealant removal is among the most terrible work for maintenance people, especially when removing sealant inside fuel tanks. Present tooling is mostly either heavy in weight or big in size and not effective. Therefore, our tooling can erase the above issues.
The most important components that determine the high combat readiness of military units are the maintenance of full serviceability and readiness for immediate combat use of military equipment, in particular artillery guns (howitzers).
Howitzer rods belong to the damping and recoil control system.
It is often desirable to deliver extremely high power laser output by fiber optics rather than free space, e.g., for surgical, welding, spectroscopy, yet coupling very high optical intensity into even ‘larger silica core’ fiber is replete with challenges.
