Method of automatic recognition of helicopters flying at low altitudes
The use of thermal radiation for target recognition is a very effective method, since every object emits certain amounts of thermal energy that can’t be fully masked. In recent years a rapid development of IR target recognition devices can be observed. These devices are capable of detection and identification of low-flying objects at close distances. Such Infrared Search and Track Systems (IRST...
متن کاملPulmonary circulation of the llama at high and low altitudes.
We have studied the pulmonary circulation of three closely related animals, the llama, alpaca, and guanaco. The mean pulmonary arterial pressure of 12 llamas and one alpaca indigenous to high altitude in the Andes was found to be slightly but significantly higher than that of three llamas and three guanacos born and bred at low altitude in England. On the other hand, the medial thickness of the...
متن کاملModelling circumplanetary ejecta clouds at low altitudes: a probabilistic approach
A model is presented of a ballistic, collisionless, steady state population of ejecta launched at randomly distributed times and velocities and moving under constant gravity above the surface of an airless planetary body. Within a probabilistic framework, closed form solutions are derived for the probability density functions of the altitude distribution of particles, the distribution of their ...
متن کاملRespiration at High Altitudes *
It has been clearly recognized that a low barometric pressure, when first encountered, may interfere with the normal workings of the human machine, but that later by compensatory responses the body may become adapted to the new conditions. The outstanding variable encountered in ascents to high altitudes by airplane, dirigible, free balloon, or mountaineering is the tenuousness of the atmospher...
متن کاملKala-Azar at High Altitudes
Sir,?Major P. Savage, i.m.s., in the June number of your journal lias recorded the apparent occurrence of indigenous kala-azar at Sanawar in the Simla Hills, where up to that time the presence of Phlcbotomus argcntipcs, the suspected carrier of kala-azar, had not been reported. It is, therefore, of interest to note that in a collection of Phlcbotomus from Sanawar village, kindly given me by Cap...
