Latest scientific publications
Technical report
This report describes a bi-axial approach that represents a significant advancement in vibration energy harvesting (VEH), specifically the approach increases the operational directionality from single-axis to 360 degrees in a plane.
Technical note
Computational Red Teaming describes the application of new and innovative analytic techniques, tools and methodologies in support of Red Teaming activities. A framework of three key activities: Information Management; Conduct and Execution; and Scrutiny and Analysis; is developed and decomposed into constituent functions for analysis.
Technical report
This report discusses improved CTH hydrocode modelling of ejecta (soil, sand etc) from detonation of buried explosive devices using two phase material model.
General document
A novel analogue FM ship-to-shore communications system was used to demonstrate video and bidirectional audio transmission up to 3km.
Technical note
A small scale drop tower arrangement was used to simulate the dynamics of a practice torpedo impacting a submarine’s pressure hull.
Technical note
An anthropometric specification which describes the "hard to fit" members of the Army population has been developed. This specification can be used to inform the anthropometric fit aspects of new vehicle acquisitions and any upgrades of existing vehicles.
Technical note
This report explores alternative combat ration pack (CRP) configurations and surveys the views of military personnel likely to use them.
Technical note
This document provides guidance on the specification of open systems for acquisition.
Technical note
A simulation trial was conducted to test the connectivity between the two heterogeneous software systems that were part of a cooperative Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Demonstration being undertaken by the Australian and Singaporean defence science agencies.
