Stability of coupled-core nuclear reactor systems
Stability conditions for a class of interconnected systems modeled by linear abstract evolution equations and a memoryless nonlinearity are derived. These conditions are stated in terms of the passivity of each of the subsystems and can be considered as a partial generalization of the hyperstability theorem. A Liapunov function approach is used in the proof without requiring the positive definiteness of the Liapunov function. Application to the robustness analysis of the infinite-dimensional linear quadratic regulator is also discussed.
Stability constraints for two general forms of coupled systems of second order nonlinear differential equations
A stability-bleed system was installed in a YF-12 flight inlet that was subjected to internal and external airflow disturbances in the NASA Lewis 10 by 10 foot supersonic wind tunnel. The purpose of the system is to allow higher inlet performance while maintaining a substantial tolerance (without unstart) to internal and external disturbances. At Mach numbers of 2.47 and 2.76, the inlet tolerance to decreases in diffuser-exit corrected airflow was increased by approximately 10 percent of the operating-point airflow. The stability-bleed system complemented the terminal-shock-control system of the inlet and did not show interaction problems. For disturbances which caused a combined decrease in Mach number and increase in angle of attack, the system with valves operative kept the inlet started 4 to 28 times longer than with the valves inoperative. Hence, the stability system provides additional time for the inlet control system to react and prevent unstart. This was observed for initial Mach numbers of 2.55 and 2.68. For slow increase in angle of attack at Mach 2.47 and 2.76, the system kept the inlet started beyond the steady-state unstart angle. However, the maximum transient angles of attack without unstart could not be determined because wind-tunnel mechanical-stop limits for angle of attack were reached.

Dynamic system stability, developments, application and literature
The first experimental European communications satellite Symphonie is a geostationary satellite. The satellite is designed and built in a joint project by French and German aerospace firms. A description is given of the basic technical concept of the satellite. The apogee motor is discussed along with the satellite stabilization system. The stabilization system provides a three-axis positional stabilization and an orbital stabilization. Attention is given to the spin stabilization phase, the sensors employed, the approache used for orbital correction maneuvers, and the conduction of simulation tests on the ground.
