Spectropolarimetry of the Deep Impact target comet 9P/Tempel 1 with HiVIS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
High resolution spectropolarimetry of the Deep Impact target, comet 9P/ Tempel 1, was performed during the impact event on July 4th, 2005 with the HiVIS Spectropolarimeter and the AEOS 3.67m telescope on Haleakala, Maui. We observed atypical polarization

Terminal Guidance Based on Bézier Curve for Climb-and-Dive Maneuvering Trajectory With Impact Angle Constraint

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
To improve the penetration capability and the damage effectiveness of cruise missiles, maneuvering trajectory with specific impact angle is applied in terminal guidance. In this paper, an innovative online method for terminal guidance is presented, which

Impact estimates of nosocomial bloodstream infection : looking from a different angle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Mortality associated with nosocomial bloodstream infection is multifactorial. Source of infection, etiology, age, underlying disease, acute illness, and appropriateness of antimicrobial therapy all contribute to the final outcome.

Variation in sprinkler irrigation droplet impact angle on the physical crusting properties of soils

open access: yesAgricultural Water Management, 2023
The angle at which a droplet impacts determines its shearing and compaction effects on soil, which in turn affects the formation and properties of the physical soil crust.

Impact-Angle-Control Guidance Law with Terminal Constraints on Curvature of Trajectory

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
This paper presents an impact-angle-control guidance law with terminal constraints on the curvature of the missile trajectory. The formulation takes into account nonlinear kinematics and time-varying velocity, allowing for more general cases in which the

Three-Dimensional Fast Fixed-time Convergence Guidance Law With Impact Angle Constraint

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
In this paper, a three-dimensional (3D) impact-angle-control guidance law is proposed based on the approaches of nonsingular terminal sliding mode control and fixed-time convergence theory to intercept a maneuvering target.

Blast Fragment Impact of Angle-Ply Composite Structures for Buildings Wall Protection

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
This paper investigates the fragment performance of several composite panels for attaching to the inside walls of a building structure. These panels were developed using different types of fiber woven fabrics (W0, W90) combined with distinct layers ...

Scaling of hypervelocity impact craters in ice with impact angle [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2002
Hypervelocity oblique impacts using spherical 1 mm diameter aluminum projectiles at velocities of (5.2 ± 0.2) km s−1 were incident at angles ranging from normal (0° to the vertical) to grazing incidence (80°) onto thick polycrystalline H2O ice targets at 253 K. Data were obtained to distinguish changes in crater size and shape.

Oblique drop impact: can one infer the angle of impact?

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2022
During solid surface impact, a falling drop's energy is transformed into oscillations of its liquid/gas interface. We consider drop deposition during oblique impact in the capillary-ballistic regime characterized by high Reynolds number and moderate Weber number. We treat this as an inverse problem showing that post-impact observations of the frequency
