چکیده
This paper describes the mitigation of shaped charge penetration of steel armour by the use of spaced metallic and composite plates. The target consisted of one or more steel plates of 10mm thickness some of which were backed by 25mm E-glass polyester composite panels at various additional spacings from the rearmost steel plate. A 32mm diameter shaped charge warhead was detonated at a standoff of 2CD from the frontal of the armour system.

CuO nanosheets/rGO hybrid lamellar films with enhanced capacitance.
CuO nanosheets (NSs)/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) hybrid lamellar films were prepared by vacuum filtration of CuO NSs/GO composite dispersions, followed by hydrothermal reduction. The CuO NSs/GO composite dispersions were assembled electrostatically by mixing a negatively charged GO sheets aqueous solution with a positively charged CuO NSs aqueous dispersion at room temperature. The prepared Cu...
متن کاملShort envelope pulse propagation in composite right- and left-handed transmission lines with regularly spaced Schottky varactors
Composite rightand left-handed (CRLH) transmission lines with regularly spaced Schottky varactors are characterized for propagation of short envelope pulses. Due to strong dispersion, a short pulse cannot travel on a conventional CRLH line without distortion. This distortion is compensated for by the effects of Schottky varactors such that the line supports solitonic pulses, whose pulse width d...

This paper describes the testing of Profiled Steel Sheet Dry Board (PSSDB) load bearing wall system. Experimental tests were conducted on various PSSDB wall samples, with and without infill materials to study its effect on the PSSDB load bearing wall performance. A proprietary profiled steel sheet, Ajiya Cliplock (0.48 mm thick) attached to Cemboard (10 mm thick) on one side, and Cemplank (10 m...
متن کاملPEDOT-CNT coated electrodes stimulate retinal neurons at low voltage amplitudes and low charge densities.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare two different microelectrode materials--the conductive polymer composite poly-3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (PEDOT)-carbon nanotube(CNT) and titanium nitride (TiN)--at activating spikes in retinal ganglion cells in whole mount rat retina through stimulation of the local retinal network. Stimulation efficacy of the microelectrodes was analyzed by compa...
متن کاملSpaced education improves the retention of clinical knowledge by medical students: a randomised controlled trial.
PURPOSE Medical knowledge learned by trainees is often quickly forgotten. How can the educational process be tailored to shift learning into longer-term memory? We investigated whether 'spaced education', consisting of weekly e-mailed case scenarios and clinical questions, could improve the retention of students' learning. METHODS During the 2004-5 surgery clerkships, 3rd-year students comple...
