MODELING AND SIMULATION OF LAMINATE COMPOSITE MATERIALS (MILD STEEL-BULK METALLIC GLASS-DYNEEMA) FOR USE AS BALLISTIC PROTECTION

Modeling and Simulation of Laminate Composite Materials (Mild Steel-Bulk Metallic Glass-Dyneema) for use as Ballistic Protection

In this study, laminate composite materials are numerically modeled and simulated for application as ballistic protection.Using Abaqus Explicit FEA software for the numerical study, Mild Steel, Bulk Metallic Glass, and Dyneema were used as the target laminate materials and tested against 7.62mm API bullets.The maximum Von Mises stress was 9.003E8N/

Fault Attacks on the Authenticated Encryption Stream Cipher MORUS

This paper investigates the application of fault attacks to the authenticated encryption stream cipher algorithm MORUS.We propose fault attacks on MORUS with two different goals: one to breach the confidentiality component, and the other to breach the integrity component.For the fault attack on the confidentiality component of MORUS, we propose two

Antiretroviral Drug-Resistance Mutations on the Gag Gene: Mutation Dynamics during Analytic Treatment Interruption among Individuals Experiencing Virologic Failure

We describe drug-resistance mutation dynamics of the gag gene among individuals under antiretroviral virologic failure who underwent analytical treatment interruption (ATI).These mutations occur in and around the Bottle Lamp Couple Card cleavage sites that form the particles that become the mature HIV-1 virus.The study involved a 12-week interrupti
