An aircraft’s thrust-to-weight ratio is a statistic that is often thrown around, but one that is poorly understood, even ...

There are really just three forces to consider: the downward gravitational force (mg), the thrust from the rocket (F T), and some type of interaction with the air.

Turku, Finland-headquartered Elomatic has successfully completed the installation of its patented Elogrid tunnel thruster ...

The reverse thrusters are essentially the force from the engines directed backwards (thus the "reverse" part). This backward-pushing thrust force, along with the brakes, slows down the aircraft.

Strictly speaking, the term Delta-v means change in velocity, but engineers use it specifically as a measure of the amount of impulse, or thrust force over time, needed to accomplish a maneuver.

"The AIM-9X Block II is the most advanced short-range air-air missile in the US inventory, capable of using its datalink, thrust vectoring manoeuvrability, and advanced imaging infrared seeker to ...

A Chinese team has demonstrated a prototype of a microwave plasma thruster capable of working in the Earth's atmosphere and producing thrust with an efficiency comparable to the jet engines you'd ...

A team of engineers at the Air Force Research Laboratory and Air Force Test Center have set a record for the highest thrust produced by an air-breathing hypersonic engine in the military branch's ...
