Novel method for remotely detecting explosives
When explosive devices are prepared, transported, or handled, quantifiable amounts of the constituent materials frequently end up on surfaces. Because these chemical residues may serve as indicators of attempts at concealed assembly or transport of explosive substances and devices, being able to rapidly detect them in a noninvasive, remote manner would be very useful. Consequently, a variety of...
متن کاملA Novel Method for Remotely Detecting Trace Explosives
Events in recent years have led to an increased need for improvements in our abilities to detect explosives. In numerous situations, the capability to detect explosives sensitively, accurately, and rapidly could have great benefit to national security both at home and abroad. Some of the homeland situations that would benefit from improvements in explosives detection include screening passenger...
متن کاملA Novel Method for Detecting Similar Documents
We describe a system for rapidly determining document similarity among a set of documents obtained from an information retrieval (IR) system. We obtain a ranked list of the most important terms in each document using a rapid phrase recognizer system. We store these in a database and compute document similarity using a simple database query. If the number of terms found to not be contained in bo...
متن کاملAn electromagnetic model for detecting explosives under obscuring layers
Recently, there has been increasing interest in object imaging and detection behind obscuring layers because of applications in detection of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and suspicious materials. Millimeter (MMW) and terahertz waves show promise in detecting and imaging objects through clothing or packaging materials. In this paper, we discuss an electromagnetic model based on a multi-la...
متن کاملA novel method for detecting structural damage based on data-driven and similarity-based techniques under environmental and operational changes
The applications of time series modeling and statistical similarity methods to structural health monitoring (SHM) provide promising and capable approaches to structural damage detection. The main aim of this article is to propose an efficient univariate similarity method named as Kullback similarity (KS) for identifying the location of damage and estimating the level of damage severity. An impr...
