An improved technique for measuring the front-surface temperature of samples being tested at the tri-services thermal radiation test facility, wright-patterson afb, is proposed. the new method will be designed totake advantage of the spectral characteristics of this facility. radiation pyrometry has… More

A safe, aesthetically acceptable potable water supply can be produced on shipboard by electrolytically generating ozone and chlorine directly in the water supply. this method does not require a supply of heavy, hazardous chemicals but generates ozone and chlorine electrolytically from sea water at… More

The damaging effects of nuclear airblast, thermal and prompt radition, and emp on exposed equipment and structures are well known. an additional, less widely recognized but potentially serious nuclear effect is that of airblast-induced shock (abis). equipment mounted inside an enclosed space can be… More
