Performance of Fish Scale-Inspired Armour Subjected to Impact Loading by Different Impactor Shapes: A Numerical Investigation

Materials Proceedings
This paper investigates the impact performance of a hybrid scale–tissue structure inspired by elasmoid fish scales. Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) acted as the hard scales, whereas thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) mimicked the soft tissue.

Protection Structures in Multithreaded Systems [PDF]

The Computer Journal, 2012
We consider a single-address-space system which implements a form of segmentation with paging within the framework of the multithreaded model of program execution. A salient problem of a system of this type is the definition of the set of mechanisms enforcing memory protection. We present a paradigm for the protection system design that is based on the
