Explosive Device Componentry and Evaluation

open access: closedForensic Analysis of Fire Debris and Explosives, 2019
Forensic analysis of improvised explosive and incendiary devices poses unique challenges. Such devices can incorporate a vast array of components, assembled in configurations limited by only the laws of physics and the creativity of their builder. The job of the device examiner is to determine what components were present in the device and how they all

There is Low Cost Titanium Componentry Today

open access: closedKey Engineering Materials, 2013
In spite of titanium’s excellent combinations of lightweight, mechanical properties, and corrosion resistance it has been excluded from many applications because of its high cost in fabricated componentry. The major cost to produce a titanium alloy component is the processing of the sponge into alloy plus the several processing steps for fabricating ...

Advances in polymeric integrated optical componentry

open access: closedIntegrated Photonics Research, 2001
We review advances in polymer integrated optic technologies developed globally for the communication market. We describe components produced to date that achieve coupling, routing, filtering, attenuation, switching, polarization control, dispersion compensation, modulation, and amplification.

A systematic review of shock-attenuating componentry for lower limb amputees

Prosthetics & Orthotics International, 2018
Background: Shock-attenuating pylons are commonly fitted to prostheses in order to compensate for the anatomical and biomechanical shock-absorbing features of the lower limb removed upon amputation.

Optical Componentry Utilized in Field Trial of Single-Mode Fiber Long-Haul Transmission

open access: closedIEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics, 1982
Realization of large-capacity long-haul transmission systems is now quite promising due to rapid development in the field of optical fibers. The paper describes single-mode fiber optical components for use in the above-mentioned system. In particular, LD modules, optical connectors are most important for construction of a practical system.

Effects of changes in cadence, prosthetic componentry, and time on interface pressures and shear stresses of three trans-tibial amputees.

open access: closedClinical Biomechanics, 2000
To evaluate the effects of changes in cadence, prosthetic componentry, and time on interface pressures and resultant shear stresses in trans-tibial amputee case studies.Interface stresses were monitored using custom-designed instrumentation at 13 sites on three subjects with unilateral trans-tibial amputation walking with patellar-tendon-bearing ...

The milling factory: Componentry-dependent fragmentation and fines production in pyroclastic flows

open access: yesGeology, 2016
Abstract In order to decipher the mobility of hazardous small-volume pyroclastic flows (PFs), we investigate here the role of clast fragmentation and production of fine particles (<2 mm) in controlling PF dynamics. We report a high-resolution textural data set (i.e., grain size distribution, clast componentry, and clast morphology)

Componentry for Lower Extremity Prostheses

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2005
Prosthetic components for both transtibial and transfemoral amputations are available for patients of every level of ambulation. Most current suspension systems, knees, foot/ankle assemblies, and shock absorbers use endoskeletal construction that emphasizes total contact and weight distribution between bony structures and soft tissues.
