A Novel Two-Staged Decision Support based Threat Evaluation and Weapon Assignment Algorithm, Asset-based Dynamic Weapon Scheduling using Artificial Intelligence Techinques [PDF]

open access: yesIJCSIS June 2009 Issue, Vol. 2, No. 1, 2009
Surveillance control and reporting (SCR) system for air threats play an important role in the defense of a country. SCR system corresponds to air and ground situation management/processing along with information fusion, communication, coordination, simulation and other critical defense oriented tasks. Threat Evaluation and Weapon Assignment (TEWA) sits

Exposed weapons: A revised reconstruction of the facial anatomy and life appearance of the saber‐toothed cat Megantereon (Felidae, Machairodontinae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Megantereon was a widespread saber‐toothed felid from the Pliocene and Pleistocene of the Old World and North America, but its rarity in the fossil record makes it complicated to restore its life appearance. Lack of complete specimens makes it necessary to combine information from fossils of different individuals to reconstruct their facial ...

Spotlight Session on Autonomous Weapons Systems at ICRC 34th International Conference [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Autonomous weapons systems (AWS) change the way humans make decisions, the effect of those decisions and who is accountable for decisions made. We must remain vigilant, informed and human-centred as we tackle our deliberations on developing norms regarding their development, use and justification.

Review of the anatomical basis for predicting plutonium alpha particle radiation induced osteogenic cancers

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.

Ballistic impact response of a heat-treated dual-phase Ti–5.2Mo–4.8Al–2.5Zr–1.7Cr alloy with hierarchical microstructure

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023
In the present study, a dual-phase Ti-5.2Mo-4.8Al-2.5Zr-1.7Cr alloy was hot-rolled at 980 °C with a thickness reduction of 65% and then heat-treated with the strategy of 920 °C/1 h/water quenching +550 °C/6 h/air cooling, and a hierarchical ...
