Microwave imaging of antipersonnel mines

SPIE Proceedings, 1998
The effects of soil and mine parameters on microwave imaging are investigated based on Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FD- TD) simulation and laboratory studies. Range of soil permittivity considered is from 2.6 to 7.6 corresponding to dry soil and a volumetric soil moisture of 16%. Both plastic and metallic mines are imaged.

Neutralisation of antipersonnel mines with an Nd:YAG laser

SPIE Proceedings, 2004
We report on the possibility to use lasers as a demining tool to dispose mines from a safe distance. Most anti personnel (AP) mines consist of 10 g to 500 g of an explosive, a fuse and a plastic case which makes them very difficult to detect. In 90% of all AP mines trinitrotoluene (TNT) or a combination of TNT and other explosives is used.

Ramp response signatures for the detection of antipersonnel mines

SPIE Proceedings, 1999
Previous electromagnetic scattering result have been presented for the ramp response profile functions for Anti- Personnel (A-P) Mines in lossless, homogeneous media. 3D images have been generated using such profile functions for three orthogonal incidence angles.

Antipersonnel mine detection on infrared images

University as a Bridge from Technology to Society. IEEE International Symposium on Technology and Society (Cat. No.00CH37043), 2002
Detection and clearance of buried mines is a big problem with lots of humanitarian, environmental and economic implications. Classic techniques, such as metal detectors, are not suitable for detecting mines with low or null metal content. In this work we propose a novel method based on the analysis of the different thermodynamic behaviour of the mines ...

Les mines antipersonnel

Revue Internationale de la Croix-Rouge, 1993
«La mine peut çtre décrite comme un combattant qui ne rate jamais sa cible, qui frappe aveuglément, qui ne porte pas les armes ouvertement et qui continue à frapper longtemps après la fin des hostilités.En résumé, cet engin, qui exerce un terrorisme inimaginable, est le plus grand violateur du droit international humanitaire».
