Formalizing swarm security
(2022-01-24)
Cheap, capable processors are becoming readily available,
and these are being deployed to a wide variety of applications, ranging
from internet-enabled refrigerators to swarms of specialised drones. As
often is the case ...
The impact angle dependency of a piezoelectric impact sensor – a conceptual study
(2022-03-26)
Piezoelectric impact sensors are designed to trigger an immediate or delayed detonation when they
sense that the projectile impacts a desired target. The initial voltage signal of a piezoelectric element
(PE) in a ...
Abstraction-decomposition space for critical infrastructure systems: A framework for infrastructure planning and resilience policies
(2022-04-20)
The objective of this work has been to propose a framework that will aid governments with the development of more coherent and effective infrastructure planning and resilience policies through a system-of-systems approach ...
Models for predicting impact sensitivity of energetic materials based on the trigger linkage hypothesis and Arrhenius kinetics
(2020)
In order to predict the impact sensitivity of high explosives, we designed and evaluated several models based on the trigger linkage hypothesis and the Arrhenius equation. To this effect, we calculated the heat of detonation, ...
The Rapidly Exploring Random Tree Funnel Algorithm
(2022-03-17)
This paper shows the feasibility of combining robust
motion primitives generated through the Sums Of Squares
programming theory with a discrete Rapidly exploring Random
Tree algorithm. The generated robust motion ...
Destined for deadlock? Russia, Ukraine, and the unfulfilled Minsk agreements
(2020-01-27)
Bringing peace, security, and stability to the war-torn region of Donbas has proven to be a challenging — some would say near-impossible — task. The "Minsk II" agreement, signed in February 2015, was supposed to put an end ...
Konsekvenser av NATOs BNP-mål for Forsvarets langtidsplanlegging
(2020-03-30)
NATO-medlemslandene har blitt enige om å øke sine forsvarsbudsjetter mot to prosent av BNP innen 2024.
I dette notatet tar vi for oss hvilken usikkerhet et slikt prosentmål kan innebære for Forsvaret, og hvilke
utfordringer ...
Effekter av støyforurensning på havmiljø - kunnskapsstatus og forvaltningsrådgiving
(2020-04-01)
Menneskeskapt støy i havet kan defineres som en type forurensning når den kommer i tillegg til
den naturlige bakgrunnsstøyen. Mer menneskelig aktivitet har ført til en økning i støynivå i havet
de siste 30–40 årene. ...
Sauebeiting på områder med vegetasjon som er tilsatt jord med og uten tungmetaller – en eksperimentell studie
(2020-02-18)
Dyr som beiter i utmark i Norge vil kunne komme i kontakt med aktive og nedlagte skytebaner.
Kontakten kan utgjøre en risiko for dyra ved at tungmetaller som bly (Pb) og kobber (Cu) som
har akkumulert i jorda tas opp ...
Cloud-based decision support system for planning military operations
(2020-02-21)
When planning a military operation, it is important to explore possibilities and understand consequences
of the plan. To this end, wargaming can be used for assessing possible courses of
action (COA) for own and enemy ...
