TL;DR: In this article, a throttling mechanism for the nozzle of a solid-propellant rocket motor is proposed, which is capable of selectively controlling the effective area of the discharge orifices of the nozzle whereby the magnitude of the thrust of the rocket motor may be varied.

TL;DR: In this article, a system for controlling the operating pressure and thrust of a solid propellant rocket motor is described, which includes a propellant cutter that extends through the burning surface of the solid-pursuit to increase on command burning surface area and thereby increase the burning rate.

TL;DR: In this article, the Doppler shift of spectral lines resulting from macroscopic velocities in axial and rotational directions was investigated with respect to the plasma jet, and it was shown that the shift is independent of the velocity of the jet.
