Ergonomics, design and reliability of body armour [PDF]

, 2011
The wearing of body amour has become a necessity for many professions and much work has gone into the optimisation of the mechanics of protection. In the present study a broader view of the effects of ergonomics, design, reliability and protection has

Wave Tracing: Generalizing The Path Integral To Wave Optics

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Modeling the wave nature of light and the propagation and diffraction of electromagnetic fields is crucial for the accurate simulation of many phenomena, yet wave simulations are significantly more computationally complex than classical ray‐based models.

Nanomaterials for ballistic protection: Advances and future prospects-a review

Results in Engineering
The increasing lethality of ballistic threats and the increasing demand for lightweight and portable protection have revealed the critical limitations of conventional armor materials, such as high material density, poor flexibility, and limited multi-hit

HSPICE implementation of a numerically efficient model of CNT transistor

This paper presents the algorithms of an implementation of a numerically efficient carbon nanotube transistor (CNT) model in HSPICE. The model is derived from cubic spline non-linear approximation of the non-equilibrium mobile charge density.

Improved ballistic performance through increased yarn friction

, 2012
This article reports how the body armour fabrics are engineered with improved ballistic performance through designing gripping yarn and surface modification of woven fabrics. Experimental study shows that gripping yarns designed in the body armour fabric

Adaptive Optical Layers: Efficient Tall Cell Grids for Liquid Simulation

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Tall cell grids have been proposed as an efficient approach to accelerate large‐scale liquid simulation. In this framework, regions near the liquid surface are discretized with regular grids, while regions farther away are represented by elongated rectangular cells.

Contextual Learning of New Meanings for Familiar Words: Perturbation of Original Meanings Occurs Without Deliberate Study

Language Learning, EarlyView.
Abstract The present study investigated learning new meanings of known words from reading, following Hulme et al.’s (2018) study. English speakers read four short stories containing 16 critical words (i.e., familiar word forms assigned invented secondary meanings).
