Things like thermal buckling, atmospheric effects, etc. will be discussed here.

NOTE: As efforts to catch up from page 1 of the presently 127 page thread progress, items may shift from Open to Closed and thus at this time may be incomplete or incorrectly categorized.

Open

Thermal Effects - Drive - Heating of the structure or components of the drive.

Thermal Effects - Atmospheric - Heating of the surroundings of the drive.

Vibration of the device when power is applied causing a ratchet-type rotation effect, due to differences in the static friction.

Heating, magnetic or electrical effects causing the device to alter shape and weight distribution.

Induction of magnetic or electric fields in the apparatus and surroundings, causing repulsion/attraction with surroundings.

Induced magnetic fields pushing against the Earth's magnetic field.

Closed

Photon Rocket Interpretation - The theory that in some way the EM Drive is simply a strange Photon Rocket.

Quantum Tunnelling[1]
