Design study and scaled experiment of induction and synchronous motor for civil application of electromagnetic aircraft launch system (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bertola, L., Cox, T., Wheeler, P., Garvey, S. D., & Morvan, H. (2016). Design study and scaled experiment of induction and synchronous motor for civil application of electromagnetic aircraft launch system.

The engine size of modern passenger transport aircraft is principally determined by take-off conditions, since initial acceleration requires maximum engine power. An Electromagnetic Launch (EML) system could provide some or all of the energy required...
