 | Studies of the atmospheric boundary layer always require values for the dynamic and thermodynamic properties of the fluids present: namely, air, water vapor, and other trace gases. Studies of the marine boundary layer frequently require similar properties for the ocean, in addition. This handbook collects functions for calculating the values for these dynamic and thermodynamic variables. For example, it includes equations for air density, water vapor density, and seawater density. ... |

 | Commercial security equipment can support all the scenarios for monitoring training lands that are outlined in the sections, Security options and Discrimination between humans and animals. Specific products in the categories of intrusion detection systems, automated video surveillance, cameras, and illuminators are represented in a database of security technology. The database is a mix of current versions of long established security equipment and new, innovative technology. The variety of equipment ... |

 | We quantified the explosives residues deposited by live fire of military munitions to estimate the load of unreacted energetics to soils. This value is needed to estimate potential explosives migration to groundwater. We sampled the impact and firing point residues of seven Composition B filled and seven TNT filled 155-mm howitzer projectiles (one of the five most commonly used rounds in the U.S. arsenal, and live fire residues had not ... |

 | A material model for soft, wet soil was generated to simulate the deformation behavior of thawing soil under vehicle loading on paved and unpaved roads. Freeze-thaw action produces a loose, wet soil that undergoes large deformation when subjected to vehicle loads. The soil modeled is a frost-susceptible fine sand, which was used in full-scale tests of paved and unpaved road sections in CRREL's Frost Effects Research Facility (FERF). The soil ... |

 | The Fort Future Tools research program is building installation modeling and simulation capabilities that will give decisionmakers the ability to virtually test potential solutions to meeting future requirements. This will greatly enhance the Army's ability to transform its installations in the tight timeframe required to support our emerging forces. Much as field commanders gain a superior advantage by visualizing the battle space, installation planners will be able to make better ... |
