   Pulsed Detonation Drive (PDD)
   The PDD is a variant, generally theoretical, where the electromagnetic forces are applied cyclically or in rapid pulses. This approach attempts to exploit fluid non-linearity, specifically the tendency of confined plasma to rapidly collapse upon cessation of the driving field. Proponents claim this cyclic loading generates a transient pressure wave exceeding the steady-state thrust of…
