Optimization of the Ballistic Guide Design for the SNS FNPB 8.9 A Neutron Line [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The optimization of the ballistic guide design for the SNS Fundamental Neutron Physics Beamline 8.9 A line is described. With a careful tuning of the shape of the curve for the tapered section and the width of the straight section, this optimization ...

The impact of the coupling relationship between projectile size and yarn dimension on the ballistic performance of plain weave fabric

open access: yesDefence Technology
Aramid fibers, due to their relatively high inter-yarn friction, high strength, high modulus, and other characteristics, have become a typical representative of flexible anti-ballistic materials in modern warfare. Current research on the anti-penetration

Maximum likelihood estimation in the context of a sub-ballistic random walk in a parametric random environment

open access: yes, 2014
We consider a one dimensional sub-ballistic random walk evolving in a parametric i.i.d. random environment. We study the asymptotic properties of the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) of the parameter based on a single observation of the path till the ...

Ballistic performance of an FRP helmet-head system

open access: yesActa Mechanica Solida Sinica, 2023
Abstract The purpose of this paper is to make an assessment on the performance of an FRP helmet-head system subjected to ballistic impact. Firstly, an FE model for human head is developed in which it mainly consists of scalp, skull, meanings, cerebrospinal fluid, brain tissue, falx, tentorium, face and neck.

Photoswitchable Conductive Metal–Organic Frameworks

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A conductive material where the conductivity can be modulated remotely by irradiation with light is presented. It is based on films of conductive metal–organic framework type Cu3(HHTP)2 with embedded photochromic molecules such as azobenzene, diarylethene, spiropyran, and hexaarylbiimidazole in the pores.
