Modelling and Neuro-Adaptive Robust Control Algorithms for Solid Fuel Rockets by Christian Danner Ramos de Carvalho, João Viana da Fonseca Neto

“… This study presents the development of a methodology for designing neuro-adaptive robust controllers based on a reference model associated with an artificial neural network of radial basis functions (ANN-RBF) for solid fuel suborbital rockets. The modelling and neuro-adaptive robust control algorithms for these rockets are presented. …”

Ignition by Hot Transient Jets in Confined Mixtures of Gaseous Fuels and Air by Abdullah Karimi, M. Razi Nalim

“…The hot jet of combustion products from a prechamber is injected through a converging nozzle into the main CVC chamber containing a premixed fuel-air mixture. Combustion in a two-dimensional analogue of the CVC chamber is modeled using a global reaction mechanism, a skeletal mechanism, or a detailed reaction mechanism for three hydrocarbon fuels: methane, propane, and ethylene. …”

On the Performance of Hybrid PV/Unitized Regenerative Fuel Cell System in the Tropics by Salwan Dihrab, Tamer Khatib, Kamaruzzaman Sopian, Habeeb Al-Ani, Saleem H. Zaidi

“…Such a system uses the hydrogen as the energy carrier, which produces energy through the electrolyzer with assistance of the power from the PV during the sunny hours, and then uses stored hydrogen to produce energy through the fuel cell after sunset or on cloudy days. The current study has used premanufactured unitized regenerative fuel cells in which the electrolyzer and the fuel cell function within one cell at different modes. …”
