On caching in military networks
(2014-01-27)This report presents different approaches to caching, covering existing and suggested solutions for both civil systems and for use within NATO. The idea is to provide an overview of different approaches to caching in the ... -
On growing operating costs in the Armed Forces - a refinement of concepts and estimates of growth in real output unit costs (GROUC) in the Norwegian Armed Forces
(2017-12-08)The growth in unit costs, be it input or output, is often claimed to be higher in the Armed Forces than in the general economy. This growth poses a major challenge to long term defence planning if budgets or ambitions ... -
On synchronization in semelparous populations
(2005)Synchronization, i.e., convergence towards a dynamical state where the whole population is in one age class, is a characteristic feature of some population models with semelparity. We prove some rigorous results on this, ... -
On the Big Bang Cosmology as a Kinematic Event in Newtonian Cosmology Modified by Dark Energy
(2012)The concepts dark matter and dark energy are commonly used to explain the universe. The dark energy can be conceived as a property of vacuum or the ether. However, a quite different but also common approach is to modify ... -
On the Kinetics of Anaerobic Power
(2012)Background This study investigated two different mathematical models for the kinetics of anaerobic power. Model 1 assumes that the work power is linear with the work rate, while Model 2 assumes a linear relationship ... -
On the retention and acquisition of cluster munitions
(2009)This report has been written upon request from The Royal Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs as a contribution to the follow-up on the Convention on Cluster Munitions. This convention was signed by more than 90 nations ... -
On the roles and synergies of the service oriented architecture - and the semantic technlogies paradigms in an NNEC context
(2013-01-16)This document compares the Service-oriented Architecture (SOA) with Semantic Technologies with regard to applications within the context of NNEC. We attempt to find out to what degree these two paradigms are overlapping, ... -
On the size of intermediate results in the federated processing of SPARQL BGPs
(2018)This paper is a foundational study in the semantics of federated query answering of SPARQL BGPs. Its specific concern is to explore how the size of intermediate results can be reduced without, from a logical point of view, ... -
On the study of ricochet and penetration in sand, water and gelatin by spheres, 7.62 mm APM2, and 25?mm projectiles
(2016)We examine the ricochet and penetration behavior in sand, water and gelatin by steel spheres, 7.62 mm APM2 and 25 mm projectiles. A threshold impact angle (critical angle) exists beyond which ricochet cannot occur. The ... -
On the Use of Computational Fluid Dynamics to Investigate Aerosol Dispersion in an Industrial Environment: A Case Study
(2012)Aerosol dispersion in the area surrounding an existing biological treatment facility is investigated using large-eddy simulation, with the objective to investigate the applicability of computational fluid dynamics to complex ... -
On the use of the HUGIN 1000 HUS Autonomous Underwater Vehicle for high resolution zooplankton measurements
(2010)This paper evaluates and tests the HUGIN 1000 HUS AUV as a carrier platform for the Laser Optical Plankton Counter (LOPC). The LOPC was mounted outside on top of the carrier platform, and the tests confirm that this concept ... -
On-line solid phase extraction-liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry for trace determination of nerve agent degradation products in water samples
(2013)Three primary nerve agent degradation products (ethyl-, isopropyl- and pinacolyl methylphosphonic acid) have been determined in water samples using on-line solid phase extraction-liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry ... -
Ontologibasert dataintegrasjon
(Forsvarets forskningsinstitutt, 2015-06)Informasjonssystemene i nettverksbasert forsvar er ofte utviklet og vedlikeholdt for separate formål uten felles grensesnitt eller datamodell. Ontologibasert datain-tegrasjon bruker virtuelle grensesnitt for å løse ... -

(2002)This report discusses selected military technology issues which were important during Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan 2001. The main elements pointing toward the future, were the use of UAVs, cruise missiles, ... -
Operasjonalisering av Trekantmodellen 2.0 – anbefalinger for å øke innovasjonsevnen i forsvarssektoren
(2021-06-07)Trekantmodellen har vært en effektiv innovasjons- og samarbeidsmodell for nasjonal teknologi- og materiellutvikling. Norge har også lyktes godt med en nisjebasert tilnærming til nasjonal teknologi- og industriutvikling ... -
Operasjonsanalytiske metoder : sluttrapport fra GOAL
(2009)Operasjonsanalyse (OA) dreier seg om å støtte beslutningstakning ved å utarbeide et godt beslutningsgrunnlag. Det har i de senere år vært et økende tilfang av analyseprosjekter ved instituttet for å støtte beslutningsprosesser ... -
Operational METOC models at Norwegian Meteorological Institute (met.no)
(2008)The numerical forecasting models run by the Norwegian Meteorological institute (met.no) are crucial in providing meteorological and oceanographic services to the Norwegian armed forces. In this report our goal is to ... -
Operationalizing Protection of Civilians in NATO Operations
(2015)Though NATO and other military forces increasingly recognize protection of civilians as a key objective in their operations, implementation remains challenging. To effectively protect, the military force must understand ... -
