Multiteam Systems Handling Time-Sensitive Targets: Developing Situation Awareness in Distributed and Co-located Settings
(2022-08-04)There is an increasing interest in how to organize operations carried out by multiteam systems (MTS). Large MTS typically operate with a dedicated integration team, responsible for coordinating the operation. We report a ... -
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 ... -
Myndighetsutøver, ressursforvalter og livredder – den russiske kystvakten i støpeskjeen
(2016)The Russian Coast Guard, or Beregovaya okhrana, was formally established in 2007 and plays a crucial role in the management of natural resources located in the vast maritime areas under Russian jurisdiction. The purpose ... -
NATO Core Services profiling for Hybrid Tactical Networks -Results and Recommendations
(2021-07-21)The NATO Research Task Group IST-150 "NATO Core Services profiling for Hybrid Tactical Networks" had Federated Mission Networking (FMN) as the main context and motivation for its work. IST-150 intended to investigate Core ... -
NATO Federated Coalition Cloud with Kubernetes: A National Prototype Perspective
(2021-10)In NATO, the IST-168 research task group (RTG) “Adaptive Information Processing and Distribution To Support Command and Control” aims to investigate cloud computing at the tactical edge from a coalition force perspective. ... -
Naval sonar disrupts foraging in humpback whales
(2016)Modern long-range naval sonars are a potential disturbance for marine mammals and can cause disruption of feeding in cetaceans. We examined the lunge-feeding behaviour of humpback whales Megaptera novaeangliae before, ... -
Når alt blir personlig. Trump i internasjonal politikk
(2018-12-10)Denne spalten tar for seg betydningen av personligheten til USAs 45. og sittende president, Donald Trump. Argumentet som fremmes, er at Trumps personlighet, dog mangefasettert, gjennomsyres av særlig ett karaktertrekk, ... -
Near-PHz-bandwidth, phase-stable continua generated from a Yb:YAG thin-disk amplifier
(2016)We report on the generation of a multi-octave, phase-stable continuum from the output of a Yb:YAG regenerative amplifier delivering 1-ps pulses with randomly varying carrier-envelope phase (CEP). The intrinsically CEP-stable ... -
Networking-Enabling Enhancement for a Swarm of COTS Drones
(2018)This paper presents the augmentation of a commercial-of-the-self (COTS) multi-rotor unmanned aerial system (UAS) to extend its capabilities by introducing increased on-board processing power. The option to process sensor ... -
A neural network framework for binary classification of radar detections.
(2021-09-17)A desired objective in radar target detection is to satisfy two very contradictory requirements: offer a high probability of detection with a low false alarm rate. In this paper, we propose the utilization of artificial ... -
Neurotoxic effects of perfluoroalkylated compounds: mechanisms of action and environmental relevance
(2012)Perfluoroalkylated compounds (PFCs) are used in fire-fighting foams, treatment of clothes, carpets and leather products, and as lubricants, pesticides, in paints and medicine. Recent developments in chemical analysis have ... -
Neutral Polymeric Bonding Agents (NPBA) and Their Use in Smokeless Composite Rocket Propellants Based on HMXGAP- BuNENA
(2012)Very few efficient bonding agents for use in solid rocket propellants with nitramine filler materials and energetic binder systems are currently available. In this work, we report the synthesis, detailed characterization, ... -
A New Distributed Localization Algorithm Using Social Learning Based Particle Swarm Optimization for Internet of Things
(2018)Emerging applications in the Internet of Things (IoT) will depend on the accurate location of thousands of deployed sensors. However, accurate localization of deployed sensors nodes is a classical optimization problem which ... -
A new method for underwater archaeological surveying using sensors and unmanned platforms
(2016)As most of the world’s oceans are inaccessible to diving archaeologists, we must rely on advanced underwater technology and marine robotics to explore, map and investigate ship wrecks in these areas. New sensors and unmanned ... -
A new standard for predicting lung injury inflicted by Friedlander blast waves
(2016)An important blast injury mechanism is the rupture of the lungs and the gastrointestinal tract. In explosives safety studies and threat analysis the empirical model of Bowen is often used to quantify this mechanism. The ... -
No Country for Old Men? Increasing the Retirement Age in the Norwegian Armed Forces
(2020-05-25)Ageing workforces due to low fertility rates and higher life expectancies challenge modern industrialized economies. In order to secure economic welfare and to balance public budgets, governments worldwide implement reforms ... -
Non-destructive testing of graphene/epoxy composites using THz waves
(2018-10-05)In earlier experiments [1] we found there was significant transmission of THz radiation through carbon-fiber enforced composites, despite that fact that the dc conductivity of the carbon fibers is expected to be good and ... -
A non-singular horizontal position representation
(2010-07-03)Position calculations, e.g. adding, subtracting, interpolating, and averaging positions, depend on the representation used, both with respect to simplicity of the written code and accuracy of the result. The latitude/longitude ...
