Demetriades,S. T., Maxwell,C. D., Doss,E. D., Oliver,D. A., Argyropoulos,G. S.
Development of improved computer codes for solving the MHD problem has led to improved techniques for inverting the large matrixes that appear in the formulation and application of STD Research...
MPD (Magnetoplasmadynamic) Thruster Advanced Pumping System Concepts. (1998)
Bhattacharyya, S. K., Carlson, L. W., Chow, L. S., Doss, E. D., Herman, H.
Magnetoplasmadynamic (MPD) thrusters have a number of features that make them attractive for use in several intermediate term missions planned by the U.S. Air Force and Nasa. Theoretical studies and...
Evaluation of a Steady State MPD Thruster Test Facility. (1998)
Reed,L. B., Carlson,L. W., Herman,H., Doss,E. D., Kilgore,O. W.
The succesful development of multimegawatt MPD thrusters depends, to a great extent, on testing them under steady-state, high-altitude space conditions. Steady-state testing is required to provide...
