"A Review of Cryogenic Technology Aspects of Space Flight."
This paper was presented at the International Cryogenic Engineering Conference in Kyoto, Japan. It details the use of cryogenic technology in rocketry and how its usage created "many new techniques and deeply stimulated many fields of cryogenic technology." -
"A Second Look at Man, Machine, and Automatic Test Operations."
A summary found following the errata page reads: "This paper presents a second look at the subject of the man-machine relationship in automatic test operations. 'Man, Machine, and Automatic Test Operations' was presented by the writer at Battelle Memorial Institute in November of 1963...It is the purpose of this second look at the man-machine interface to pinpoint those concepts which have proven their worth with time and those concepts which have proven to be weak, and as a result modified with time." This paper was prepared by George F. Meister, Jr. -
"A Study of Saturn V and Intermediate Vehicle Improvement Programs Executive Summary Report."
The abstract notes, "The purpose of this report is to summarize the results of three companion studies designed to investigate both the performance growth potential of the Saturn V and the utilization of Saturn V equipment to fill the performance gap in the intermediate payload range between the Saturn IB and the Saturn V. This report includes significant data which is intended to aid the planning of future missions. This data reflects some of the various vehicle configurations which can be used by mission planners to satisfy payload desires in excess of the Saturn IB and Saturn V." -
"Advances in Pumping Technology and Rocket Engine Turbopump Applications."
Presented by Charles A. MacGregor, Supervisor, Advanced Turbomachinery during Workshop D, Royce Hall, Room 160 at UCLA on 2 June 1964, as a part of the NASA-UCLA Symposium and Workshop on the Transformation of Knowledge and Its Utilization. The introduction notes, "This report is divided into two general parts. The first part is a description of turbopumps for liquid rocket engines as they exist today. For completeness and understanding, some background information is included on why turbopumps have evolved to their present configurations. The second part suggest portions of this effort that may have some applicability to the general economy." -
