The Future of Jihadism in Europe: A Pessimistic View
(2016-12)
This article presents a ten-year forecast for jihadism in Europe. Despite reaching historically high levels in
recent years, violent Islamist activity in Europe may increase further over the long term due to four macrotrends: ...
Distributed fusion in underwater sensor networks: Fusing bearing information
(2019)
In underwater sensor networks, distributed data fusion may be more efficient than centralized fusion because the limited data transmission capacity can make it difficult to collect all required sensor information at a ...
Imaging radar for navigation and surveillance on an autonomous unmanned ground vehicle capable of detecting obstacles obscured by vegetation
(2019-09-16)
The Norwegian Defence Research Establishment (FFI), has developed a multi purpose radar demonstrator for Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) on the Off-road Light Autonomous Vehicle (OLAV) platform. The ...
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 ...
Correlation between sediment properties and seafloor characterization maps based on multibeam backscatter data from three regions off the coast of Norway
(2017)
Multibeam echo sounder data from Kongsberg EM 1002 and EM 710 (70–
100 kHz) acquired between 2003 and 2014 were processed using QPS Fledermaus Geocoder
Toolbox (FMGT) to produce backscatter mosaics and maps of estimated ...
(Invited) Changes in Thermal Stability of Cyclic Aged Commercial Lithium-Ion Cells
(2019)
Thermal stability is one of several factors affecting the safety properties of lithium-ion cells. The thermal stability for uncycled cells is well-documented, but the effect of cyclic ageing on thermal stability is far ...
Hva nå, norsk forsvarsindustri? Instrumentelle og institusjonelle svar på EUs nye politikk på det sikkerhets- og forsvarspolitiske området:Instrumentelle og institusjonelle svar på EUs nye politikk på det sikkerhets- og forsvarspolitiske området
(2019-12-11)
Artikkelen diskuterer EUs nye forsvarspakke med særlig vekt på CARD (Coordinated Annual Review on Defence), PESCO (Permanent Structured Cooperation) og EDF (European Defence Fund). Formålet er å styrke EU som sikkerhetspolitisk ...
Northern bottlenose whales in a pristine environment respond strongly to close and distant navy sonar signals
(2019-03-20)
Impact assessments for sonar operations typically use received sound levels to predict behavioural disturbance in marine mammals. However, there are indications that cetaceans may learn to associate exposures from distant ...
Strategy for Detection and High-Resolution Characterization of Authigenic Carbonate Cold Seep Habitats Using Ships and Autonomous Underwater Vehicles on Glacially Influenced Terrain
(2019-11-26)
Cold seep habitats with authigenic carbonates and associated chemosynthetic communities in glacially influenced terrains constitute an important part of the benthic ecosystems, but they are difficult to detect in large-scale ...
