symbols of asymmetric warfare and modern military conflict, very little has changed in the realm of counter-improvised explosive device (C-IED) strategy. The military is always searching for better vehicles and equipment to defeat what is, at its core, a homemade device made for a fraction of the cost of our technological countermeasures. As a result, C-IED strategy has primarily focused on dev...

Background: Effect of electromagnetic and radiofrequency fields on human health is not well understood, a concern is its effect on male infertility. With the increased use of modern technology, issue of protection against this fields has great importance. infertility is the problem to follow psychological - social consequences. The most common cause of infertility are: male factor, female facto...

Playing an important role in navigation test, radio navigation generator is widely used in the people/military plane. But traditional equipment composed of analog circuit presents low accuracy and poor reliability. A new kind of digital navigation signal generator is designed in this paper. It receives data and commands from PC by MicroBlaze embedded soft processor of Xilinx company and demodul...

Diluted exhaust from selected military aircraft ground-support equipment (AGE) was analyzed for particulate mass, elemental carbon (EC) and organic carbon (OC), SO4(2-), and size distributions. The experiments occurred at idle and load conditions and utilized a chassis dynamometer. The selected AGE vehicles operated on gasoline, diesel, and JP-8. These military vehicles exhibited concentrations...

The activity of the pharmaceutical school Military Medical (Medico-Surgical) Academy in various historical periods is presented to ensure state interest and national security. Scientists employees have been training highly qualified personnel for different levels health care more than two centuries, fundamental applied research conducted create new drugs medical devices, as well organizing prov...

Night vision devices (NVDs) mitigate risks in low visibility operations through image intensification or infrared imaging. However, NVDs create new risks, including a host of human factors problems. The operation of night vision equipment has been associated with several different forms of spatial disorientation. The following pages describe how this disorientation exacerbates the hazards creat...

In a military deployment, the operational availability of deployed equipment will be affected by many factors including equipment usage rates, sparing policy, and importantly the composition and distribution of maintenance personnel. In this paper, we present a Coloured Petri Net model that captures the potentially complex defence logistics maintenance process that links these factors together....

Night vision devices mitigate the risks associated with operations in low levels of visibility. They help personnel to maximize visual resources through image intensification or infrared imaging. However, night vision devices also create new risks. They encourage personnel to conduct operations that would otherwise have been rejected. They also create a host of human factors problems that are i...

Complex early and late neuropathies resulting from direct and conductive electrical patterns of injury are disabling and extremely challenging to manage. We report a patient who suffered acute onset of right-hand weakness and decreased sensation following a radar equipment-related electrical injury. He received a carpal and Guyon tunnel release, regaining sensation and strength to his right han...
