Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsModern Propulsions for the Aerospace IndustryRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThis paper aims to contribute to the study of propulsion systems for modern aerospace vehicles with the obvious aim of improving them and to give them the ability to move much faster and easier in any direction, for a very long time, going through huge distances without the need of fuel refueling, as is the case with conventional, chemical propulsion. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 12 May 2018 · 7,995 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOn Mars there was WaterFlorian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuScientists overseeing Curiosity's mission on Mars confirmed that the shape and size of the pebbles on the dry tracks indicate that they were transported and eroded by the waters. According to them, the rover found the roots of rocks equivalent to the flowing waters on Earth. The planet Mars, the closest to Terra, had life conditions similar to our blue … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 11 May 2018 · 8,628 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModern Propulsions for Aerospace-Part IIRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.Speaking about a new engine ionic means to speak about a new aircraft. The paper presents in a short time the actual engines ion chambers (called the ion thrusters) and other new ionic motors proposed by the authors. The engine (ionic propulsion unit of ions, that accelerates the positive ions through a potential difference) is approximately ten times more efficient … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 25 Apr 2017 · 8,118 accessesView PDFCite
