Stress-rupture data for four heat-resisting alloys are analyzed according to equations of the theory of rate processes. A method for determining the four parameters of structure and composition is demonstrated and the four parameters are determined for each of the alloys: forged S816, cast S816, cast S590, and cast Vitallium. It is concluded that parameters can be determined for an alloy provided sufficient reliable experimental data are available.

The objective of this research was to better understand the conditions and duration of shock metamorphism in meteorites through microstructural and microanalytical characterization of high-pressure minerals. A) Continue to investigate the mineralogy and microstructures of melt-veins in a suite of chondritic samples ranging from shock grades S3 through S6 to determine how the mineral assemblages that crystallize at high-pressure and are related to shock grade. B) Investigate the chemical,...

The pitch links of rotor blades are essential hardware that provide direct control to rotorcraft. The pitch-link loads undergo large changes in magnitude as a result of flight conditions that range from those of relatively benign level flight to those associated with severe, complex maneuvers. In the present study, a ''complex'' maneuver was defined as one that involved simultaneous non-zero aircraft angle of bank (associated with turns) and aircraft pitch rate (associated with a pull-up or a...

AN ITERATIVE METHOD IS PRESENTED FOR DETERMINING THE POSITION ON EARTH OF A BALLOON, CORRECTING FOR BOTH ERRORS DUE TO TERRESTRIAL ROTATION AND ERRORS DUE TO THE DOPPLER EFFECT. AN INTERROGATING SATELLITE IS USED, AND A ZERO WIND CONDITION IS ASSUMED. THE ACCURACY OBTAINED IS ON THE ORDER OF 1 MILLIONTH.

SN 1988Z is the most luminous X-ray-emitting supernova, initially detected in 1995 using the ROSAT HRI with the luminosity of approx. 8x10(exp 40) erg/s . Its high luminosity was ascribed to expansion of the blast wave into an especially dense circumstellar medium. In this paper, we describe a recent observation of SN 1988Z using the ACIS detector on CHANDRA. We readily detect SN 1988Z, obtaining approx. 30 net counts which corresponds to a 0.2-2.0 keV luminosity of approx. 3.2x10(exp 39)...

Moore and Howard [1] reported the discovery of large alluvial fans in craters on Mars. Their initial survey from 0-30 S found that these fans clustered in three distinct regions and occurred at around the 1 km MOLA defined Mars datum. However, due to incomplete image coverage, Moore and Howard [1]could not conduct a comprehensive survey. They also recognized, though did not quantitatively address, gravity scaling issues. Here, we briefly discuss the identification of alluvial fans on Mars, then...

The London theory of superconductivity is used to calculate the torque on a superconducting sphere rotating in a uniform applied magnetic field. The London theory is combined with classical electrodynamics for a calculation of the direct effect of excess charge on a rotating superconducting sphere. Classical electrodynamics, with the assumption of a perfect Meissner effect, is used to calculate the torque on a superconducting sphere rotating in an arbitrary magnetic induction; this macroscopic...

A general characteristic of photovoltaics is that they increase in efficiency as their operating temperature decreases. Based on this principal, the ability to increase a solar aircraft's performance by cooling the solar cells was examined. The solar cells were cooled by channeling some air underneath the cells and providing a convective cooling path to the back side of the array. A full energy balance and flow analysis of the air within the cooling passage was performed. The analysis was first...

For magnetic-bearing-supported high-speed rotating machines with significant gyroscopic effects, it is necessary to stabilize forward and backward tilt whirling modes. Instability or low damping of these modes can prevent the attainment of desired shaft speed. We show analytically that both modes can be stabilized by using cross-axis proportional gains and high- and low-pass filters in the magnetic bearing controller. Furthermore, at high shaft speeds, where system phase lags degrade the...

Time is of importance for the success of a military mission and is a beneficial tool that can provide an advantage over the enemy if used effectively. This thesis prototypes a mission planning and analysis simulation for commanders and staff officers to assist in the mission-planning process and helps them to manage the duration of a mission by using technology and mission command as a means to accelerate mission. The simulation and analysis of the output data in this thesis has five main...

Faulty decision making due to inaccurate or incomplete awareness of the situation tends to be the prevailing cause of fatal general aviation accidents. Of these accidents, loss of weather situational awareness accounts for the largest number of fatalities.

The assistant automatically monitors weather reports for the pilot's...
