Ship tracking results from state-of-the-art space-based AIS receiver systems for maritime surveillance
(2019-04-11)Norway currently operates four satellites with Automatic Identification System (AIS) receivers. The first-generation satellites, AISSat-1 and AISSat-2, are equipped with a two-channel, single-antenna AIS receiver, while ... -
Fragmentation of an armour piercing projectile after impact on composite covered alumina tiles
(2019-11-18)In a typical body armour system, a hard armour plate is often used in conjunction with a soft ballistic panel. The main purpose of the armour plate is to erode and fragment an impacting projectile, such as 7.62 mm armour ... -
Using Publish/Subscribe for Short-lived IoT Data
(2018-09-12)Although the use of the Internet of Things (IoT) in a smart city context primarily stems from civilian applications like management and monitoring, there are also other uses. For instance, military forces may utilize ... -
Intellectual disability associated with pyridoxine-responsive epilepsies: The need to protect cognitive development
(2019-03-08)Pyridoxine (vitamin B6)-responsive epilepsies are severe forms of epilepsy that manifest as seizures immediately after birth, sometimes in utero, sometimes months, or years after birth. Seizures may be treated efficiently ... -
Non-destructive testing of graphene/epoxy composites using THz waves
(2018-10-05)In earlier experiments [1] we found there was significant transmission of THz radiation through carbon-fiber enforced composites, despite that fact that the dc conductivity of the carbon fibers is expected to be good and ... -
Exploring the overlapping binding sites of ifenprodil and EVT‐101 in GluN2B‐containing NMDA receptors using novel chicken embryo forebrain cultures and molecular modeling
(2019-05-30)N‐methyl‐d‐aspartate receptors (NMDAR) are widely expressed in the brain. GluN2B subunit‐containing NMDARs has recently attracted significant attention as potential pharmacological targets, with emphasis on the functional ... -
Trust, ethnic diversity, and personal contact: A field experiment
(2019-03-22)We study how close personal contact with minorities affects in-group and out-group trust in a field experiment in the armed forces. Soldiers are randomly assigned to rooms with or without ethnic minorities. At the end of ... -
Multiplex polymerase chain reaction detection of enteropathogens in sewage in Norway
(2019-03-04)The primary objective of this small-scale study was to investigate the occurrence of enteropathogens in sewage (municipal wastewater) in Norway using the commercially available FilmArray® multiplex polymerase chain reaction ... -
Computational analysis of shock-induced flow through stationary particle clouds
(2019-03-22)We investigate the shock-induced flow through random particle arrays using particle-resolved Large Eddy Simulations for different incident shock wave Mach numbers, particle volume fractions and particle sizes. We analyze ... -
Skandinavias første jihadister
(2019-03-22)Nyoppdagede primærkilder viser et skandinavisk innslag blant afghanaraberne i 1980-årene. Jihadismen i nord er antakelig eldre enn tidligere antatt. -
Predicting Near-Time Satellite Signal Attenuation at Ka-band Using Tropospheric Weather.
(2018-12-10)There are satellite communication applications where it is desirable to predict near time (e.g. 2 to 12 h) propagation losses at Ka-band due to hydrometeor precipitation. We present results from a project investigating the ... -
A field-based method for evaluating thermal properties of static and mobile camouflage
(2018)Reliable and realistic methods for assessment of thermal infrared signature properties for military purposes are important. With a basis in ongoing developments of imaging technologies, especially towards mass markets, ... -
An overview of policy-based spectrum management for EM systems
(Nato STO, 2016)It has been predicted that many future military radio communication nodes, as well as many other EM spectrum consuming systems, to an increasing degree will make fast, local decisions about their use of the spectrum. This ... -
Very-High-Frequency Single-Input–Multiple-Output Acoustic Communication in Shallow Water
(2018)Very-high-frequency (VHF) underwater acoustic communication is a relatively unexplored terrain, but its importance is expected to increase with the growing demands for larger bandwidths and higher data rates. Knowledge of ... -
Control Plane Performance in Tactical Software Defined Networks
(2019)Software Defined Networking can be beneficial in tactical networks to increase flexibility, provide programmability and to simplify management. The immense dynamics in tactical communication networks can, however, lead to ... -
Content-based multimedia analytics: US and NATO research
(2018)The US and nations of the NATO Alliance are increasingly threatened by the global spread of terrorism, humanitarian crises/disaster response, and public health emergencies. These threats are influenced by the unprecedented ... -
Toward an architecture and data model to enable interoperability between federated mission networks and IoT-enabled smart city environments
(2018)The emergence of smart city initiatives in many areas of the world has led to rapid development and proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. Successful deployments of IoT have resulted in the military looking ... -
Synthesis and characterization of Al@MOF materials
(2019)The potential impregnation of Al(0) nanoparticles in the pores of three different metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), MIL-53-Al, HKUST-1, and UiO-67, was investigated through the suspension of the MOFs in AlH3•NMe2Et (1), ... -
Identification of mixed substances using a random forest regressor to classify THz absorbance spectra
(2018)We report on the development and application of a random forest regressor that not only identifies but also estimates the relative concentrations of substances (one explosive and two simulants), both in one-substance and ... -
Nucleation and propagation of thermomagnetic avalanches in thin-film superconductors (Review Article)
(2018)Stability of the vortex matter—magnetic flux lines penetrating into the material—in type-II superconductor films is crucially important for their application. If some vortices get detached from pinning centres, the energy ...
