Exploration of the Mars Radiation Environment Using MARIE

One of three science instruments onboard Mars Odyssey is the Mars Radiation Environment Experiment (MARIE), which is described here. MARIE is an energetic particle spectrometer which will characterize the space radiation environment of Mars and determine its risk to human exploration. Additional information is contained in the original extended abstract.

Investigations of the influence of the profile thickness of the compressible plane flow through compressor cascades

Flow-through cascade of an aircraft turbine compressor is studied experimentally over wide range of Reynolds numbers and subsonic Mach numbers; it was found that deterioration of flow properties due to decreasing Reynolds numbers is less noticeable on thin profiles than on thick ones; however, thick profiles are advantageous in compressors designed for efficient partial load behavior because thick profiles have a relatively large range of usable inlet flow angles.
