Students launched self-built rocket

On January 24th, a group of Aerospace Engineering students from Técnico launched a self-built rocket under the RED project (Rocket Experiment Division). Named Aurora 2.0, this was the third launch by RED and considered a success, as it was possible to recover the rocket and analyze some aspects of its performance.

Development and Assessment of an Over-Expanded Engine to be Used as an Efficiency-Oriented Range Extender for Electric Vehicles

A range extender (RE) is a device used in electric vehicles (EVs) to generate electricity on-board. This paper describes an efficiency-oriented RE based on a small motorcycle engine modified to the efficient over-expanded cycle. The results indicate that it is possible to have an efficient solution, in-line with the electric mobility sustainability paradigm, which can solve most of the shortcomings of current EVs in a sustainable way.
