While the diplomatic fruit is ripe: An international commission on the Korean Peninsula
Asia &the Pacific Policy Studies, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 131-140, January 2020., 2020 Abstract The Korean Peninsula is home to intermittent conflict and is an ongoing critical flashpoint. It is an entrenched, long‐standing international problem—exactly what international commissions are designed to address. An international commission is an ad hoc transnational investigative mechanism, which dependent upon its sponsors and constitution ...

Britain and the Missile Gap: British Estimates on the Soviet Ballistic Missile Threat, 1957–61 [PDF]
, 2008 Between 1957 and 1961, American National Intelligence Estimates overestimated the Soviets’ capabilities to produce and deploy intercontinental ballistic missiles, creating the ‘missile gap’ controversy. This article examines the contemporaneous estimates

Nuclear U.S. and Soviet/Russian Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles, 1959-2008 [PDF]
Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, 2009 Recent research exposes the fallacies that helped to drive missile stockpiles to astronomical levels, making Russia’s persistently slow reduction of deployed missiles all the more inexcusable.

Aerodynamic Shape Optimization of a Missile Using a Multiobjective Genetic Algorithm
International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020 The aim of this paper is to demonstrate the effects of the shape optimization on the missile performance at supersonic speeds. The N1G missile model shape variation, which decreased its aerodynamic drag and increased its aerodynamic lift at supersonic flow under determined constraints, was numerically investigated.

The United States' European Phased Adaptive Approach Missile Defense System [PDF]
, 2015 In 2013, the United States opted to cancel Phase 4 of its European Phased Adaptive Approach missile defense system. Russia had cited it as a threat to its nuclear deterrent. This report demonstrates that the restructured U.S.

Signals, Red Lines, and Collision: The Israel‐Iran Spiral and US Intervention
Middle East Policy, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 5-23, Summer 2026.Abstract The Iran War erupted in February 2026 without UN authorization, and Washington's rationales—Iranian nuclear ambitions, missile capacity, and proxy threats—map more closely onto Israeli than US security interests. Why have we seen two major conflicts between these belligerents in less than one year?

Optimal Midcourse Guidance Algorithm for Exoatmospheric Interception Using Analytical Gradients
International Journal of Aerospace Engineering, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019 This paper is aimed at providing a semianalytical method to solve the optimal exoatmospheric interception problem with the minimum fuel consumption. A nonlinear programming (NLP) problem with the minimum velocity increment, which involves Lambert’s problem with unspecified time‐of‐flight, is firstly formulated.

Kyklos, Volume 79, Issue 1, Page 17-23, February 2026.ABSTRACT This article proposes that wars are fought to bring about and monitor mutual reductions of overinvestment in broadly defined military preparedness. If two potential combatants are overinvested in military preparedness, it is in their individual interest to scale down in order to use their resources in politically more desirable ways.

Development of a Point Pyroshock Source Simulator
Shock and Vibration, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017 We developed a point pyroshock source simulator (PPSS) for the study on the source isolation approach (SIA) in this study. In spite of the potentiality of the SIA for avionics protection against pyroshock, it has rarely been investigated due to lack of pyroshock source simulators.
