A folding concept has been developed which allows a precision membrane aperture to be elastically stowed with a very high compaction ratio without creasing. The lack of creasing is extremely important when the membrane is used in RF or diffractive op

‡‡ * ‡ A transonic shock over a two-dimensional convex surface is indirectly manipulated in wind tunnel experiments by fluidic control of the shock-induced separated shear layer. Fluidic actuation is effected by a spanwise array of individually

The spatially-temporally-resolved pressure field on a surface of a hemisphere-on-cylinder optical turret was characterized in a wind tunnel at M = 0.33 using fast-response Pressure Sensitive Paint (PSP), simultaneously with 8 pressure sensors. A spar

51st AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting including the New Horizons Forum and Aerospace Exposition.
Experimental studies of the aero-optical effects around a partially-protruding cylindrical turret for a range of incoming transonic Mach numbers are presented and discussed. Spatially-temporally resolved wavefronts were collected using a high-speed S

Emission excitation cross sections for collision processes relevant to krypton-fueled Hall effect thrusters are measured using optical emission spectroscopy in the 350-1000 nm spectral range. The most prominent emissions observed are in the near-infr

This paper presents a comparison of composite laminates fabricated into spherically curved radio-frequency reflective surfaces. Prior work revealed the design challenges of this shell reflector approach: stress relaxation effects due to long-term sto

Thermal contact resistance inhibits heat removal from electronic components, and can result in overheating, performance degradation, and failure. However, determining and/or verifying contact resistance can be challenging since it is dependent upon s
