Microcalcifications play an important role in cancer detection. They are evaluated by their radiological and histological characteristics but it is challenging to find a link between their morphology, their composition and ...
Single impact perforation shots are well understood for various target materials and different shaped projectiles. Although considered a rare case, localised multi-impacts are not well understood as they involve both ...
This paper provides a novel model/framework for OR practitioners to approach and engage in complex situations. Developed over many years by the Systems Thinking Practice team at Cranfield University, this framework builds ...
The First World War took place between 1914 and 1918, with conflict occurring
in Europe and across the globe. By the end of the War, the bodies of the British
and Commonwealth dead were scattered across France and ...
This thesis aims to contribute to a better understanding of early medieval pottery production
in Lower Austria by the scientific analysis of ceramics. The investigation is based on 135
potsherds, including graphite-containing ...
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have already surpassed human-level
performance in complex computer vision applications, and can potentially
significantly advance the performance of infrared anti-ship guided missile ...
Small celestial bodies such as asteroids and comets are abundantly present in
the Solar System, yet their surfaces remain largely unexplored. Achieving regular
access to these surfaces would have a major impact on ...
This thesis has sought to aid the additive manufacture of propellants using a
novel dry powder printing system developed at Cranfield. The energetic
performance and hazard safety of crystalline energetic materials is ...
Full-scale military vehicles are teaming up with uninhabited ground vehicles (UGVs) to
improve the success rate of tactical operations on off-road terrains. UGV can perform initial
mobility testing on soft soils during ...
For the past decade, substantial progress has been achieved in the field of visual per ception for autonomous driving application thanks notably to the capabilities of deep
learning techniques. This work aims to leverage ...
Although it has been more than three decades since the term Supply Chain
Management (SCM) was first introduced, there are still divergent views and
different interpretations amongst scholars and practitioners about its ...
Our everyday lives are integrated with the use of mobile devices which store sensitive data.
Sensitive data stored on smartphones attract different threats including malware. Among mobile
platforms, Android is the most ...
Nitrocellulose is a vulnerable and sensitive energetic material that can easily be manufactured from ordinary household chemicals and used for illicit purposes. Hazards of this material can lead to incidents resulting from ...

In many applications, the main limitation of X-ray absorption methods is that the signals measured are a function of the attenuation coefficient, which tells us almost nothing about the chemical or crystallographic nature ...
Diagenesis of archaeological bones proceeds via a complex combination of chemical, physical and/or microbial processes often over several millennia. These processes are influenced by the depositional environment, including ...
