Preliminary Studies on Electrical Propulsion Systems for Space Travel (open access)

Preliminary Studies on Electrical Propulsion Systems for Space Travel

Report discussing low and high acceleration flight mechanics for interplanetary missions, as well as the energy limitation for electric propulsion systems powered by a nuclear energy source. From abstract: "An optimization procedure for low acceleration systems is given which leads to a simple relationship between mission requirements, payload fraction, power plant specific power, and exhaust velocity."

The Input Admittance of a Ring Circuit (open access)

The Input Admittance of a Ring Circuit

"A ring circuit is a succession or two-port networks and at least one three-port network, each feeding the next at one port and the last feeding the first so that the sequence closes on itself leaving at least one input port. The input admittance is derived in terms ef various matrices describing the circuit for one- and two-input port rings."
