Where experts from Academia - Cranfield University - and Officers of the British Armed Forces meet to teach Defence Science, Technology and Management. We are the academic provider and partner to the Defence Academy, UK.
To gain further insight into the mechanisms underlying jet formation and elongation of laser sintered shaped charge liners under high strain rate deformation, Cu–Cr–Zr alloy liners fabricated by selective laser sintering ...
This paper presents an analysis of the Doppler tolerance and isolation properties of five different sets of piecewise linear frequency modulated (PLFM) waveform triplets consisting of a combination of LFM subchirps. Different ...

This paper gives a succinct review of dual-spinprojectile stability and some technologies relating to them. It describes how the traditional stability factors from linear projectile theory are modified to better describe ...
Disaster victim identification following a mass fatality incident is focussed on identifying the deceased and returning them to their families as quickly as possible, while gathering as much information as practical to aid ...

Window based digital forensic workflow has been the traditional investigation model for digital evidence. Investigating using Linux based platform tends challenging since there is no specific investigation workflow for ...
Blowflies are the first inhabitants of decomposing remains and are therefore of forensic relevance for post mortem interval estimations. Forensic entomology is becoming widely accepted as a branch of forensic science and ...
Cavity flow studies are generally concerned with observing the effect of geometry changes whilst maintaining a fixed zero angle of attack. Cavities employed as weapons bays will, however, experience a range of angles of ...

Aveillant Ltd has developed a staring L-band radar that deploys a static quasi-monostatic antenna in transmission and a static digital phased array on receive capable of generating multiple simultaneous beams. Because the ...
Automatic Target Recognition (ATR) is the task of automatically detecting and classifying targets. Recognition
using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images is interesting because SAR images can be acquired at night and ...
The algorithm developed in this paper jointly selects the optimal transmitted waveform and the control input so that a radar sensor on a moving platform with linear dynamics can reach a target by minimising a predefined ...
Reliable landmine detection is still an unresolved problem. Demining operations are complex activities because of the large variety of existing landmine types, many different possible soil and terrain conditions, and ...

Important assessments of events and activities relating to military, terrorist and hybrid adversaries and the intentions of foreign governments, are made every day, usually involving subjective or ‘estimative’ probabilities ...
We introduce a new high-energy X-ray diffraction tomography technique for volumetric materials characterization. In this method, a conical shell beam is raster scanned through the samples. A central aperture optically ...
A small calibre weapon system consists of the weapon and the ammunition. In the case of bolt action rifles during the process of firing, the breech is a rigid bearing which prevents the casing from being pushed out. However, ...
performance and affective engagement with ST assessment is proposed as an approach to assess students' ST in both domains. The results can support course change decisions and guide learning experience development. Background: ...
MD ADAMS R is widely used for vehicle suspension modeling. In this paper we present modeling, simulation, and test track evaluation of an all terrain recreational vehicle. Our intention is to study the degree to which ...
The environmental risks from explosive manufacturing and testing activities are usually evaluated using a qualitative process such as environmental impact prioritisation as recommended by legislation and guidance. However, ...
In large parts of the Mediterranean recipes for the earliest man-made glass changed from melting mixtures of crushed quartz pebbles and halophytic plant ashes in the Late Bronze Age to the use of quartz sands and mineral ...
