    摘要: A main frame structure having box-section bearing beams of a launch vehicle engine includes a body. The body includes upper bearing table tops, lower bearing table tops, a cross gasket, a connecting ring and the box-section bearing beams. The box-section bearing beam includes an upper surface, a lower surface and two side beam walls, and has a cavity structure. Penetrating transverse ribs penetrating the two side beam walls are arranged on the box-section bearing beams, and one ends of the box-section bearing beams are circumferentially distributed at an outer side of the connecting ring. The lower bearing table tops are arranged at the outer side of the connecting ring, the lower bearing table tops are connected to the cross gasket, and the other ends of the upper surfaces and the lower surfaces are connected by means of arc chamfers and are connected to the upper bearing table tops.

    摘要: Example coil guns and methods of using coil guns are described herein. An example coil gun includes a first pancake module; a second pancake module, where the first pancake module and the second pancake module are each formed of a winding with an inner superconducting material layer and an outer ordinary conductor layer, where the first pancake module and the second pancake module are physically and/or inductively coupled to propagate a quench of a superconducting state of the first pancake module to the second pancake module.

    摘要: Circular mass accelerators for off-world applications are disclosed herein. An example system includes a base assembly that is configured to interface with a supporting surface, a vertical support assembly extending from the base assembly, a first drive positioned, a shaft connected to the first drive, a hub assembly having a spool, the hub assembly being coupled to a second drive that is located on a terminal end of the shaft, a first tether and a second tether that can be spooled onto and unspooled from the spool by the second drive, and payloads positioned each of the tethers, the payloads being releasably coupled to tethers in such a way that the payloads can be released upon the payloads being rotated to a target launch velocity.
