This paper describes the target acquisition process from the perspective of modelling target acquisition as a part of modelling combat. Exchanging fire obviously is very important in combat. Conditions for direct fire are line-of-sight (LOS) and some kind if perception of the intended target. LOS is deterministic and can be calculated if there is a good digital representation of the terrain. But perception is considered a stochastic process with probabilities ...
The image quantity of the KDC-lO refuelling vision system has been evaluated in terms of resolution and contrast sensitivity. To this aim a new contrast test was developed. A comparison to other systems shows that the KDC-lO refuelling vision system is particularly tacking in its contrast representation. A recent adjustment to the system partially improved its characteristics. Part of the poor contrast representation is due to the incomplete image separation ...
To set up a navy specific risk inventory and evaluation, questionnaires have been prepared for employees and supervisors. A prototype software program has been developed to subject these people to the questionnaires. By means of a pilot investigation at the Social Medische Dienst, Driehuis, The Netherlands, the questionnaires and the software have been evaluated. The questionnaires have been updated thereafter. A lay-out has been made for the evaluation of the ...
