Wittenberg,C.P.C. Wong +44 more
TL;DR: The ARIES-I project as discussed by the authors is a multi-institutional effort to develop several visions of tokamak reactors with enhanced economic, safety, and environmental features, including a high performance, low activation, SiC composite blanket cooled by He, and an advanced Rankine power cycle.

Orient,Shahram Sharafat,Erik Vold,Ken A. Werley,C.P.C. Wong,Dai-Kai Sze +29 more
TL;DR: In this article, the TITAN reversed-field-pinch (RFP) fusion-reactor study has been conducted to determine the technical feasibility and key developmental issues for an RFP fusion reactor operating at high power density.
ReportDOI

I. Maya,K.R. Schultz,R.F. Bourque,E.T. Cheng,R.L. Creedon,J.H. Norman,R.J. Price,J. Porter,H.L. Schuster,M.J. Simnad +9 more
TL;DR: The Cascade reaction chamber is a double-cone-shaped rotating drum with solid carbon, BeO, and LiAlO/sub 2/granules, which is used for inertial confinement fusion (ICF).
Patent
Combined valve/cylinder using electro-rheological fluid
TL;DR: In this paper, a combined valve/cylinder apparatus is described, which includes a housing with a cylindrical body and spaced first and second end walls closing the body, where a cylinder is positioned inside the body and a piston inside the cylinder for reciprocal movement.
Patent
Rail gun barrel with circumferentially variable prestressing
Thomas W. Hurn,R.L. Creedon +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a rail gun barrel has a pair of opposed spaced apart rails separated by a pair opposed stepped insulator members, which cooperate to define an internal bore interior body members surround the bore-defining components and fill the space between those components and an outer surrounding containment tube of varying curvature.
