The Politecnico of Milano Department of Aerospace Science and Technology (DAER), latest experimental campaign, within the IPROP project, focuses on optimizing EAD thrusters by testing nonuniform emitter arrangements.

The IPROP project has been prominently featured on the DEEPSYNC platform, a collaborative initiative under the #EICCommunities program. DEEPSYNC is designed to unite innovators, policymakers, investors, and EU citizens, fostering meaningful dialogue and cooperation around groundbreaking research and innovation projects.

The IPROP project recently marked a milestone with a partner meeting hosted by the CNRS collaborators. Over two days, participants reviewed progress achieved in the first year of project implementation under the coordination of Prof. Marco Belan from Politecnico di Milano’s Department of Aerospace Science and Technology.

The Department of Electrical, Electronic and Information Engineering, “Guglielmo Marconi” of University of Bologna and the Department of Mathematics, MOX – Modelling and Scientific Computing of Politecnico di Milano presented IPROP theoretical and numerical modeling at the 5th IEEE International Conference on Dielectrics (ICD).
