Technical Note—Probability of Kill and Expected Destroyed Value if the Underlying Distributions Are Rotationally Symmetric [PDF]

open access: closedOperations Research, 1976
We derive formulas for the probability of killing a point target and for the expected destroyed value of an area target when the value density function of the area target, the damage function, and the distribution of the center of damage function around the target center are rotationally symmetric. The result generalizes several well-known formulas.

Comparative analysis of kill probability one of the main features of Air Defense Integrated Systems [PDF]

open access: diamondINCAS BULLETIN, 2014
The combat features of the Ground Based Air Defence Systems represent the potential of search, discovery, indicate, combat and destruction of the enemy's air assets and the ability to manoeuvre of forces and combat means, for the purpose of capturing the enemy's airspace and avoid actions and attack to defend objectives (of troops) assigned in the area

Letter to the Editor—Kill Probability for Multiple Shots

open access: closedOperations Research, 1967
A point target is randomly located according to an offset circular normal distribution and remains in its unknown position throughout N independent tosses of a lethal circle. The paper presents integral expressions for the probability of: (1) killing the target at least once in N tosses of the lethal circle; (2) killing the target exactly n times in N

Letter to the Editor—Kill Probability When the Lethal Effect is Variable [PDF]

open access: closedOperations Research, 1965
Traditionally the probability of killing a point target is analyzed by means of employing a lethal circle (in two dimensions) or a lethal sphere (in three dimensions). The concept of a lethal circle or sphere is based on the assumption of a “kill-no kill” situation in which a target anywhere within the circle (sphere) is killed and a target anywhere ...

Effectiveness analysis of a hard-kill underwater defense system for surface warships against wake-homing torpedo attack

open access: yes선진국방연구, 2023
We conducted simulations to analyze the effects of a hard-kill-type underwater defense system that defends friendly warships against an enemy wake-homing torpedo.

Predicting Antimicrobial Activity at the Target Site: Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Indices versus Time–Kill Approaches

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2021
Antibiotic dosing strategies are generally based on systemic drug concentrations. However, drug concentrations at the infection site drive antimicrobial effect, and efficacy predictions and dosing strategies should be based on these concentrations.

Asymptotics for the survival probability in a killed branching random walk [PDF]

open access: bronzeAnnales de l'Institut Henri Poincaré, Probabilités et Statistiques, 2011
Consider a discrete-time one-dimensional supercritical branching random walk. We study the probability that there exists an infinite ray in the branching random walk that always lies above the line of slope $ - $, where $ $ denotes the asymptotic speed of the right-most position in the branching random walk.

How Long Do the Dead Survive on the Road? Carcass Persistence Probability and Implications for Road-Kill Monitoring Surveys

open access: goldPLoS ONE, 2011
Background Road mortality is probably the best-known and visible impact of roads upon wildlife. Although several factors influence road-kill counts, carcass persistence time is considered the most important determinant underlying underestimates of road ...

Hitting probabilities of killed brownian motion : a study on geometric regularity [PDF]

open access: bronzeAnnales scientifiques de l'École normale supérieure, 1984
Let \({\mathcal E}\) be a separable Banach space and \((X_ t)_{t\geq 0}\) be the Brownian motion on \({\mathcal E}\). For \(i=0,1\), suppose that \(A_ i\) and \(B_ i\) be non-empty, open and convex subsets of \({\mathcal E}\) and \(V_ i\) be \(-1/2\)-concave (that is, \(V_ i^{-1/2}\) is concave) functions such that \(V_ i;B_ i\to [0,+\infty[\).

Where Wolves Kill Moose: The Influence of Prey Life History Dynamics on the Landscape Ecology of Predation [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The landscape ecology of predation is well studied and known to be influenced by habitat heterogeneity. Little attention has been given to how the influence of habitat heterogeneity on the landscape ecology of predation might be modulated by life history
