(2021-09-10)Vil personell i Forsvaret bli værende i jobben om de får utbetalt en bonus for å fortsette? Siden 2004 har Forsvaret benyttet en slik retensjonsbonus for å beholde en bestemt personellgruppe – de som er ansatt til de er ... -
Spectral properties of multilayered oak leaves and a camouflage net: experimental measurements and mathematical modelling
(2021-09-21)The development of state-of-the-art surveillance technology forces nations to develop camouflage with advanced capabilities. Owing to the abundance and wide distribution of leaves, their spectral properties are often ... -
Spectral reflectance measurements of snow and snow covered objects: experimental studies compared with mathematical models
(2021-09-12)In this study, we have investigated reflectance spectra of different snow types under various conditions. Snow reflectance is interesting from a camouflage point of view as snow covers large land areas in many parts of the ... -
Leveraging network-centric strategic goals in capabilities
(2021-04-19)The vision of network-centric operations is to increase operational capabilities through networked collaboration. NATO and its member nations state this vision in strategic documents at a very high level of abstraction. ... -
Human performance research for military operations in extreme cold environments
(2020)Objectives Soldier performance in the Arctic depends on planning and training, protective equipment, and human physiological limits. The purpose of this review was to highlight the span of current research on enhancing ... -
Øke bemanningen i Forsvaret i dramatisk nedgangskonjunktur? En samfunnsøkonomisk vurdering
(2021)Koronapandemien har resultert i kraftige fall i etterspørsel, produksjon og sysselsetting i Norge og internasjonalt. Arbeidsledigheten i Norge er nå unormalt høy. Arbeidsøkonomisk litteratur har påvist at det er kostbart ... -
Modeling underwater explosions: Extending Charles to FIVER
(2021-09-27)Modeling of explosions and implosions under water is important for design of vehicles and installations both under water and on the sea surface. There exists simple models, often in the form of empirical calibrations, for ... -
Multimodal change monitoring using multitemporal satellite images
(2021-09-12)The main objective of this study is to monitor the land infrastructure growth over a period of time using multimodality of remote sensing satellite images. In this project unsupervised change detection analysis using ITPCA ... -
Framtidas heimevern
(2021-09-27)HVORDAN BLIR FRAMTIDAS HEIMEVERN? Forsvarets forskningsinstitutt har på oppdrag fra Forsvarsdepartementet og Heimevernsstaben studert hvilken innretning Heimevernet bør ha i framtida. Det har vi gjort gjennom et treårig ... -
Single-point structure tensors in turbulent channel flows with smooth and wavy walls
(2019-10-06)A long-standing problem in turbulence modeling is that the Reynolds stress tensor alone is not necessarily sufficient to characterize the transient and nonequilibrium behaviors of turbulence under arbitrary mean deformation ... -
Forsvarsindustrien i Norge – statistikk 2020
(2021-09-10)Statistikken for 2020 viser at utvalget av norske forsvarsvirksomheter leverer ca.17 % av Forsvarets totale materiellinvesteringer. Forsvarsindustrien i Norge rapporterer en vekst i forsvarsrelatert omsetning på 20 % fra ... -
Påvirkes fisk og skalldyr av dumpet ammunisjon? – en undersøkelse i fire dumpefelt for krigsetterlatenskaper
(2021-09-09)FFI har undersøkt innhold av ammunisjonsrelaterte stoffer i fisk og skalldyr fanget i dumpefelt for ammunisjon, for å kartlegge opptak og risiko ved konsum. Det er gjort fangst av biota i Malangen, Skjerstadfjorden, ... -
