SIMULATING GEOMETRICALLY COMPLEX BLAST SCENARIOS

Simulating geometrically complex blast scenarios

The effects of blast waves generated by energetic and non-energetic sources are of continuing interest to the ballistics research community.Modern conflicts are increasingly characterised by asymmetric urban warfare, with improvised explosive devices (IEDs) often playing a dominant role on the one hand and an armed forces requirement for minimal co

Genome-wide and candidate gene association studies identify BnPAP17 as conferring the utilization of organic phosphorus in oilseed rape

Phosphorus (P) is essential for living plants, and P deficiency is one of the key factors limiting the yield in rapeseed production worldwide.As the most important organ for plants, root morphology traits (RMTs) play a key role in P absorption.To investigate the genetic variability of RMT under low P availability, we dissected the genetic structure
