Simulation of natural fragmentation of rings cut from warheads
(2015)
Natural fragmentation of warheads that detonates causes the casing of the warhead to split into various sized fragments through shear or radial fractures depending on the toughness, density, and grain size of the material. ...
Forest classes and tree cover gradient: tick habitat in encroached areas of southern Norway
(2015-12-21)
Forest, in particular deciduous forest, is a key element in determining areas with a high probability of tick presence. The way forest is generally monitored may be ill suited to some landscapes where Ixodes ricinus is ...
The effect of contrast in camouflage patterns on detectability by human observers and CAMAELEON
(2015)
Evaluation of signature properties of military equipment is very important. It is crucial to apply the proper method out of many possible approaches, based on amongst others ranking by probability of detection, detection ...
The Multivariate Normal Inverse Gaussian distribution: EM-estimation and analysis of synthetic aperture sonar data
(2015)
The heavy-tailed Multivariate Normal Inverse Gaussian (MNIG)
distribution is a recent variance-mean mixture of a multivariate
Gaussian with a univariate inverse Gaussian distribution. Due to
the complexity of the ...
Heirs of Zarqawi or Saddam? The Relationship between al-Qaida in Iraq and the Islamic State
(2015)
This paper examines the relationship between al-Qaida in Iraq and Islamic State, asking what remains of AQI
within the current incarnation of IS. The study is based on available information concerning the backgrounds
and ...
Federated single sign on in disconnected, intermittent and limited (DIL) networks
(2015)
In a military setting resource exchange amongst coalition partners is of great importance. Using SAML2.0 in a Single Sign On scheme in a federated setting can be a solution to Web authentication of Web resources. The problem ...
A concept approach to input/output logic
(2015)
This paper provides a semantics for input/input output logic based on formal concept analysis. The central result shows that an input/output logic axiomatised by a relation R is the same as the logic induced by deriving ...
Reducing scalloping in synthetic aperture radar images using a composite image transform
(2015)
In burst mode SAR imaging, echo intensity depends on the target's azimuth position in the antenna pattern.
As a result, an amplitude modulation known as scalloping may appear, particularly in ScanSAR images
of ocean ...
The final destination: building test bed apps for DIL environments
(2015)
Recent years have seen a massive growth in the everyday use of smartphones and tablet (here called smart mobile devices or SMDs) and a turn towards app based software to connect to cloud based services. This has had a huge ...
Cheetah calculations of GA BAMO candidate compositions
(2015-12-02)
Norway’s main objective in the EDA project No B-0585-GEM2-GC “Formulation and Production of
New Energetic Materials” was to synthesize different new energetic binders built of GA and BAMO
polymers. Before starting ...
