Coulomb entangler and entanglement testing network for waveguide qubits

open access: yes, 2005
We present a small network for the testing of the entanglement of two ballistic electron waveguide qubits. The network produces different output conditional on the presence or absence of entanglement.

The interaction between clothing and air weapon pellets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Comparatively few studies have been carried out on air weapon injuries yet there are significant number of injuries and fatalities caused by these low power weapons because of their availability and the public perception that because they need no licence

Testing an Online Spread Pattern Determination Sensor on a Broadcast Fertilizer Spreader [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
An alternative method for fertilizer spread pattern determination was developed based on predicting where individual fertilizer particles land on the ground, in contrast to the traditional method of collecting the particles in bins (ASAE Standard S341.2).

Simulation and Experimental Tests of Ballistic Impact on Composite Laminate Armor

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2018
This paper presents the experimental testing and simulation results of ballistic impact tests on laminated armor samples that consist of three layers of different materials: fiber-cement, Kevlar fabric, and steel. In experimental tests, a 9 mm FMJ bullet

The impact of body armor on physical performance of law enforcement personnel: A systematic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background The law enforcement officer profession requires performance of arduous occupational tasks while carrying an external load, consisting of, at minimum, a chest rig, a communication system, weaponry, handcuffs, personal protective equipment and a

Fabrication of AA7005/TiB2-B4C surface composite by friction stir processing: Evaluation of ballistic behaviour

open access: yesDefence Technology, 2019
The present work aims to enhance the ballistic resistance of AA7005 alloy by incorporating the TiB2 and B4C ceramic reinforcement particles. Surface composites with different weight fractions of TiB2 and B4C particles were processed by friction stir ...

Simplified Free-Flight Testing in a Conventional Wind Tunnel [PDF]

open access: yes, 1962
In order to incorporate the advantages of ballistic range testing with the convenience of wind tunnel testing, simplified techniques have been developed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) for free-flight testing of models in a conventional wind ...

Development of a stereovision-based technique to measure the spread patterns of granular fertilizer spreaders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Centrifugal fertilizer spreaders are by far the most commonly used granular fertilizer spreader type in Europe. Their spread pattern however is error-prone, potentially leading to an undesired distribution of particles in the field and losses out of the ...

Experimental and simulated research on the ballistic performance of Ti/AlTi laminate composites

open access: yesAdvanced Composites Letters, 2020
The metal-intermetallic laminate composite Ti/Al 3 Ti can be used as protective armor in aerospace and military applications, due to its low density, high strength, and superior impact-resistant performance.
