Enhancing far-field thermal emission with thermal extraction
(2013)The control of thermal radiation is of great current importance for applications such as energy conversions and radiative cooling. Here we show theoretically that the thermal emission of a finite-size blackbody emitter can ... -
Environmental Adaptation of Robot Morphology and Control Through Real-world Evolution
(2021-03-30)Robots operating in the real world will experience a range of different environments and tasks. It is essential for the robot to have the ability to adapt to its surroundings to work efficiently in changing conditions. ... -
Equipment to tag, track and collect biopsies from whales and dolphins: the ARTS, DFHorten and LKDart systems
(2022-10-21)Of all animals considered subjects for instrumentation for behavioral or physiological studies, cetaceans probably represent the greatest challenge to the engineer and biologist. The marine environment being harsh to ... -
Er Nato en effektiv allianse? Om forholdet mellom kollektivt forsvar og internasjonale operasjoner
(2015)Hvilke forhold er det som bestemmer Natos effektivitet som allianse, og hvorfor er det slik at Nato av mange anses som best egnet til å være en kollektiv forsvarsallianse? Med et liberalt-institusjonalistisk utgangspunkt ... -
ERS tandem InSAR processing for DEM generation, glacier motion estimation and coherence analysis on Svalbard
(2003)This paper describes the unique InSAR (Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar) processing algorithms at Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI) and how ERS (European Remote Sensing Satellite) tandem data are used ... -
Estimated tissue and blood N2 levels and risk of in vivo bubble formation in deep-, intermediate and shallow diving toothed whales during exposure to naval sonar.
(2012)Naval sonar has been accused of causing whale stranding by a mechanism which increases formation of tissue N2 gas bubbles. Increased tissue and blood N2 levels, and thereby increased risk of decompression sickness (DCS), ... -
Estimating output mix effectiveness: An applied scenario approach for the Armed Forces
(2019)The ability of public sector policy makers to prioritize has a huge impact on the effectiveness of public service provision. Public services can take the form of final outputs demanded by consumers or of intermediate outputs ... -
ESTIMATING RANGE DEPENDENT SEDIMENT THICKNESS AND REFLECTION COEFFICIENTS FROM BATHYMETRIC DATA FOR IMPROVED SONAR PERFORMANCE MODELLING
(2019)Knowledge about the underwater environment is critical to anti-submarine warfare operations in littoral waters. The sonar settings and depth selections can significantly affect the predicted sonar performance. Bathymetry ... -
Estimating temperature and salinity profiles using empiricalorthogonal functions and clusteringon historical measurements
(2013)Oceanographic climatology is normally estimated by dividing the world’s oceans into geographical boxes of fixed shape and size, where each box is represented by a climatological salinity and temperature profile. The ... -
Estimating the capture and loss of cold plasma from ionospheric outflow
(2012)An important source of magnetospheric plasma is cold plasma from the terrestrial ionosphere. Low energy ions travel along the magnetic field lines and enter the magnetospheric lobes where they are convected toward the tail ... -
Estimating the pixel footprint distribution for image fusion by ray tracing lines of sight in a Monte Carlo scheme
(2013)Images from airborne cameras can be a valuable resource for data fusion, but this typically requires them to be georeferenced. This usually implies that the information of every pixel should be accompanied by a single ... -
European defence research in crisis? The way towards strategic autonomy
(2016)Defence research, in the form of both research and development (R&D) and research and technology (R&T), are important factors in achieving long-term European strategic autonomy. The present paper analyses this debate from ... -
Evaluating Publish/Subscribe Protocols for use in Constrained Networks
(2023-03-09)Considering the case of disaster relief and search and rescue operations, we can anticipate personnel operating with a total or partial lack of any pre-existing infrastructure. This means that ad hoc com- munication solutions ... -
Evaluation of a highly discriminating multiplex multi-locus variable-number of tandem-repeats (MLVA) analysis for Vibrio cholerae
(2009)Vibrio cholerae is the etiological agent of cholera and may be used in bioterror actions due to the easiness of its dissemination, and the public fear for acquiring the cholera disease. A simple and highly discriminating ... -
Evaluation of camouflage pattern performance of textiles by human observers and CAMAELEON
(2017)Military textiles with camouflage pattern are an important part of the protection measures for soldiers. Military operational environments differ a lot depending on climate and vegetation. This requires very different ... -
Evaluation of Message Broker Approaches for Information Exchange in Disadvantaged Tactical Networks in a Federated Environment
(2020)The research task group NATO STO/IST-150 «NATO Core Services profiling for Hybrid Tactical Networks» is working towards profiling Core Services for the tactical domain, which can be described as DIL (disconnected, intermittent ... -
Evaluation of safety distances for storage of explosive materials using a combination of thermochemical computations and CFD
(2019-01-14)A novel approach to calculating TNT equivalencies and safety distances for explosives, using a combination of thermochemical computations and computational fluid dynamics, is presented. This enables the estimation of safety ...
