Modeling, design and control of forced-feedback metering poppet valve system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
This research explores valve design, dynamic modeling, and techniques to achieve flow control for a forced-feedback metering poppet valve system. In particular, nonlinear and linear models of a forced feedback configuration ...
Galilean moon tour using simplified trajectory computational techniques
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
It is desired to find a trajectory for a spacecraft that will capture into an orbit about Jupiter and then subsequently capture into an orbit about each of the Galilean moons. The two main variables are the mass ratio, ...
Theoretical and experimental investigation of oscillating heat pipes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
A mathematical model describing the oscillation characteristics of slug flow in a capillary tube is presented. The model considers the vapor bubble as the gas spring for the oscillating motions in a capillary tube including ...
