Concept of Short-Range Radar and Counter-Projectile for Detecting and Countering Armour-Piercing Projectiles [PDF]
Problemy Mechatroniki, 2021 During warfare and acts of terrorism an extreme threat to vehicles and other high-value assets comes from armour-piercing projectiles. Under these conditions, defence systems should include devices capable of rapid detection of these threats.

Visual Methods to Assess Strain Fields in Armour Materials Subjected to Dynamic Deformation—A Review
Applied Sciences, 2020 When impacted by a projectile, ballistic protection undergoes very large strain rates over very short periods of time. During these impact events, materials will undergo a very short region of elastic deformation, before undergoing significant plastic ...

Complexity evaluation for the implementation of a pre-FFT equalizer in an OFDM receiver [PDF]
, 2000 A pre-FFT equalizer (PFE) has been shown to offer a significant throughput efficiency improvement when applied to an OFDM receiver. Alternatively, the PFE can be used to increase the maximum delay spread conditions under which the OFDM system can operate

Wounding patterns and human performance in knife attacks: optimising the protection provided by knife-resistant body armour [PDF]
, 2003 Stab attacks generate high loads,1 and to defeat them, armour needs to be of a certain thickness and stiffness.2,3 Slash attacks produce much lower loads and armour designed to defeat them can be far lighter and more flexible.Methods and subjects: Phase
