Nonlinear seismo-acoustic landmine detection
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2004The seismo-acoustic methods are among the most promising emerging techniques for the detection of landmines. Numerous field tests have demonstrated that buried landmines manifest themselves at the surface through resonance and nonlinear responses (or signatures) to acoustic/seismic excitation at the frequencies below 1000 Hz.

Laser-induced acoustic landmine detection
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2004Laser-induced acoustic (LIA) imaging is a new approach for underground object detection, especially for shallow buried landmine detection. This noncontact detection technique is based on a pulsed laser initiating photo-acoustic interaction in the ground.

Landmine detection with seismic sonar
SPIE Proceedings, 2004Impulsive vibration of the ground can generate seismic interface waves of the Rayleigh type, which decay exponentially with depth into the soil, and spread cylindrically with lateral range. At useful frequencies around 100 Hz, they typically travel at speeds around 100 m/sec, with wavelengths around a meter.

Landmine Problem and Multisensor Detection
2002The mine warfare in the 20th century has a history of near hundred years, related with countless military conflicts all over the world. As it is documented, the first systematic and large-scale application of mines took place during the siege of the Russian Army by Japanese at Port Arthur and Mukden in 1904.

NDT Methods in Landmines Detection
1999NDT is recognised as a vital part of the safe and efficient testing method whenever there is a possibility that unexpected defect may cause a failure to occur. Being aware of the great possibilities of detection of the discontinuities in various materials using a large variety of NDT methods, many scientists and experts try to implement NDT methods in ...

Thermal imaging for landmine detection
Second International Conference on Detection of Abandoned Land Mines, 1998A thermal imaging technique for landmine detection is described. The technique uses microwave radiation and infrared detection, and works best for soil moisture levels of around 5%. Thermal images obtained in the laboratory show that the technique can be used to locate buried landmines and completely nonmetallic minelike objects.

The improved landmine detection system
EUREL International Conference. The Detection of Abandoned Land Mines: A Humanitarian Imperative Seeking a Technical Solution, 1996This paper has outlined the approach being taken for the development of an improved landmine detection and marking system (ILDS) for peacekeeping roles. An incremental approach is being used which enables an urgent operational requirement to be addressed expeditiously in spite of the considerable difficulty of the fundamental detection problem. It also
