Review ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleUnveiling the Future: A Survey of Electric Propulsion Systems and their Pivotal Role in Shaping the Next Frontier of Space ExplorationJinadu Abdulbaqi, Okikijesu Omolona Olajide, Ayodeji Tunde AkangbeElectric propulsion represents the future of space travel, which is a promising technology for Earth-orbital and deep space missions, including potential applications in human Mars missions. The past decade has witnessed substantial progress in the conceptualization and experimentation of electric thrusters and their propellants, signaling a transformative era in space exploration. This review provides an overview of the comparison between … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 10 Jan 2024 · 6,844 accessesView PDFCite
Technical ReportOpen accessIn the keywordsMagnetic Fusion Plasma DriveFlorian NeukartIn the evolving realm of space exploration, efficient propulsion methods are paramount to achieve interplanetary and possibly interstellar voyages. Traditional propulsion systems, although proven, offer limited capabilities when considering longer-duration missions beyond our immediate cosmic vicinity. This study introduces and thoroughly investigates the Magnetic Fusion Plasma Drive (MFPD) propulsion system, a novel fusion-powered propulsion mechanism. Through rigorous theoretical underpinnings and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 4 Mar 2024 · 7,180 accessesView PDFCite
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
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAbout Aircraft's New Power and PropulsionRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuEven though the current classical methods of aerospace propulsion are much improved, some of the most modern methods have already been introduced, including propulsion with electric motors. Energy can be obtained from hydrogen burners, honeycomb burners to protect the combustion of hydrogen that burns 10 times faster than conventional fuels or alcohols. Hydrogen storage is also done in honeycomb cell … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 5 Mar 2020 · 7,325 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 abstractSurvey of Frontier Technologies and Approaches to Enable Humans-Mars Both Safe and AffordableDennis Meyer BushnellFrontier technologies and systems that could reduce costs and improve human health and safety for human missions to Mars. Overall cost reductions increase funding opportunities for addressing serious radiation and reduce gravity health impacts for human-mars class missions. Major cost reduction/health improvement opportunities include fast transit via either starship due to low-cost chemical fuels in space, or high thrust electric … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 13 Nov 2024 · 7,606 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInverse Kinematics of a Stewart PlatformRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella et al.The development and diversification of machines and mechanisms with applications in all fields require new scientific researches for the systematization and improvement of existing mechanical systems by creating new mechanisms adapted to modern requirements, which involve increasingly complex topological structures. The modern industry, the practice of designing and building machinery is increasingly based on the results of scientific and applied … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 10 Mar 2018 · 14,790 accessesView PDFCite
