This paper presents a comprehensive review of mobile terminal antenna researches performed in the past seven years and the current challenges related to the user’s influence on the performance of fifth generation (5G) ...
Research on snapshot multispectral imaging has been popular in the remote sensing community due to the high demands of video-rate remote sensing system for various applications. Existing snapshot multispectral imaging ...
Driven by the great success of deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) that are currently used by quite a few computer vision applications, we extend the usability of visual-based CNNs into the synthetic aperture radar ...
Water in aviation fuel is a destructive contaminant and can cause serious problems that compromise aircraft’s safe operation and reduce its efficiency and lifetime. Online monitoring of water content in aviation fuel would ...
Reduced graphene oxide has certain unique qualities that make them versatile for a myriad of applications. Unlike graphene oxide, reduced graphene oxide is a conductive material and well suited for use in electrically ...

With no two gunshot wounds (GSW) being the same, novel research into wound ballistics is challenging. It is evident that the majority of previous wound ballistic research has been conducted without the presence of clothing. ...
The Amazon Fire TV Stick is a popular device that is the centre of entertainment for many homes. Its collection of functions and features generates a considerable amount of data, giving this device the potential to be ...
In recent years, the global defence market has changed, shifting from a seller’s market,
with limited suppliers facing a high demand, to a buyer’s market, in which growing numbers
of suppliers compete for limited sales. ...
This paper discusses concepts that might shape, extend, limit or re-focus an agent’s set of options that can then be thought of as that particular agent’s potential in terms of their ways forward and degrees of freedom. ...

Shaped charges are designed to produce high-velocity jets for penetration. During jet formation, the liner collapses and converges at a point source, also known as the virtual origin (VO), along the distance–time plane. ...
This paper presents a systematic review of organised crime data collection and analysis methods. It did this by reviewing all papers published in Trends in Organized Crime and Global Crime between 2004 and 2018 (N = 463). ...
Rickman, John M.; Shackel, James(Springer, 2018-10-18)
When perforated by a projectile, sandwich bones typically exhibit wounds with a distinct conoidal morphology that is widely utilised both in wound diagnosis and trajectory determinations. However, the dynamic fracture ...
Laser ignition mechanism enhances the safety of explosive applications. However, optical sensitisation of the energetic materials is required for their optical absorption. In this research, explosive Cyclotrimethylene ...
The Journal of Forensic Radiology and Imaging was launched in 2013 with the aim to collate the literature and demonstrate high-quality case studies on image-based modalities across the forensic sciences. Largely, the focus ...

This work investigates the effect of ultrasound on switching of cis azobenzene isomers to their trans counterparts in solid films of methyl methacrylate and methacryloyloxyazobenzene copolymers [P(MMA/MOAB)]. UV/Vis and ...
This paper addresses the challenge for Operational Research (OR) in extending out from traditional forms of modelling towards a more relational form of modelling. The challenge comes from OR practice becoming more ...

A wearable fabric CPW antenna is presented for medical body area network (MBAN) applications at 2.4 GHz based on an electromagnetic bandgap design and frequency selective surface (EBG-FSS). Without EBG-FSS, the basic antenna ...
The paper examines the relationship and the cross-sectional asset pricing implications of risk arising from the innovations in the short and the long-term implied market volatility on excess returns of the FTSE100 and the ...
Bullet-resistant body armour is used by law enforcement agencies and military personnel worldwide, often in inclement weather. Some fibre types used in body armour perform poorly when wet, resulting in a reduced level of ...
Cyclodextrins are promising building blocks for the synthesis of industrial binders. A new binder was prepared by cross-linking β-cyclodextrin with variable amounts of polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (40–60% w/w) to ...
