Matched Filter Processor for Detection and Discrimination of Unexploded Ordnance

Matched Filter Processor for Detection and Discrimination of Unexploded Ordnance: OASIS Montaj Integration

Uxo Discrimination Using Time Domain Electromagnetic Induction

An explosive ordnance is a munition that is either launched or fired with the intent of detonation at a specified target. An unexploded ordnance (UXO) is an explosive ordnance that, due to some malfunction, remains undetonated. As a result, the ordnance can be found at the ground surface, partially buried, or buried at a depth of up to 8 m beneath the surface. Practical and cost-effective strat...

A Finite Element Method for the Electromagnetic Characterization of Quasi-Magnetostatic Problems Found in UXO Detection and Discrimination

A Finite Element Method (FEM) is presented to solve for the scattered magnetic vector potential from arbitrarily polarized targets typical of those encountered in Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) detection. Most previously developed numerical methods only solved problems in which axial symmetry could be exploited. This, of course, severely limits the capabilities and utility of such methods. The metho...

Novel Sensor Geolocation Technology for Detection and Discrimination of Unexploded Ordnance

Reliable and accurate geolocation is essential for robust detection, discrimination and remediation of unexploded ordnance (UXO) and other munitions and explosives-of-concern (MEC). The MEC characterization and remediation activities using the currently available detection and geolocation technologies often yield unsatisfactory results, and are extremely expensive, due mainly to the inability o...

Enhancing Geophysical Data Acquisition, Quality Control, Processing, Analysis and Visualization for UXO Detection, Characterization and Discrimination

As earth scientists seek to address today’s demands to detect, characterize and discriminate buried Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) for remediation and safe disposal, they are increasingly relying on high resolution geophysical methods to provide accurate and efficient detection of land-based and offshore targets. In comparison with traditional sampling procedures, geophysical methods are especially ...
