Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Nuclear Science and Engineering, 2011.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 161-167).<br>The need for large-size detectors for long-range active interrogation (Al) detection has generated interest in water-based detector technologies. AI is done using external radiation sources to induce fission and to detect, identify, and characterize special nuclear material (SNM) through the gamma rays and neutrons emitted.

Abstract:

A reliable method of remotely detecting concealed guns and explosives attached to the human body is of great interest to governments and security forces throughout the world. This thesis describes the development and trials of a new remote non-imaging concealed threat detection method using active millimetre wave radar using the microwave and mmwave frequencies bands 14 – 40 and 75 – 110 GHz (Ku, K, Ka and W). The method is capable of not only screening for concealed objects, like the current generation of concealed object detectors, but also of differentiating between mundane and threat objec

This thesis represents the first piece of research to examine the potential electrocortical processing associated with remote staring detection and its potential relationship to face perception in general. Three experiments were conducted using several different measures of electrocortical activity (Event-Related Potentials, Global Field Power, Frequency, etc), skin conductance, and questionnaire data. 20 participants for each experiment were isolated, and an automated, double-blind, randomised and counterbalanced protocol was employed. The first experiment found that the addition of a remote

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to develop a methodology for detection of naturally occurring offshore oil slicks originating from hydrocarbon seeps using satellite remote sensing techniques. In this scope, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery has been utilized. Case study area was Andrusov High in the Central Black Sea. Hydrocarbon seepage from tectonic or stratigraphic origin at the sea floor causes oily gas plumes to rise up to the sea surface. They form thin oil films on the sea surface called oil slicks. Presence of seeps and surface oil slicks for the offshore basins is a trace of depleted o

Abstract:

High-Frequency (HF) radar systems are currently used to collect wave data. By applying spectral analysis methods, such as the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method, to the radar backscatter from the ocean surface, the so-called Doppler spectrum is calculated, and from this the directional wave spectrum and wave measurements are obtained. Because of the random nature of the ocean surface, spectral measurements are subject to random variability. In order to reduce variability, and hence to obtain relatively precise estimates, each spectrum is usually calculated by averaging a number of FFT estimat

Laboratory Mueller matrix measurements of a simulated road under differing surface conditions were collected searching for a discriminatory polarization property.

Individual sample surface polarization properties were then calculated from these three unique matrices and compared. Specular and off-specular reflection responses of each sample were collected. Four polarization properties stood out for having high separa

Abstract:

Remote sensing data has great potential for wildfire detection and monitoring with enhanced spatial resolution and temporal coverage. Earth Observation satellites have been employed to systematically monitor fire activity over large regions in two ways: (i) to detect the location of actively burning spots (during the fire event), and (ii) to map the spatial extent of the burned scars (during or after the event). Active fire detection plays an important role in wildfire early warning systems. The open-access of Sentinel-2 multispectral data at 20-m resolution offers an opportunity to evaluate i

Abstract:

Many legacy nuclear facilities exist with the number of such facilities due to increase in the future. For a variety of reasons, some of these facilities have poorly documented blueprints and floor plans. This has led to many areas within such facilities being left unexplored and in an unknown state for some considerable time. The risk to health that these areas might pose has in some cases precluded human exploration and facilities have been maintained in a containment state for many years. However, in more recent years there has been a move to decommission such facilities. The change of stra

Abstract:

Synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR) is a technique that enables generation of Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) and detection of surface motion at the centimetre level using radar signals transmitted from a satellite or an aeroplane. Deformation observations can be performed due to the fact that surface motion, caused by natural and human activities, generates a local phase shift in the resultant interferogram. The magnitude of surface deformation can be estimated directly as a fraction of the wavelength of the transmitted signal. Moreover, differential InSAR (DInSAR) eliminates the

Most recent methods use a discriminative approach and train support vector machines to distinguish related sequences from unrelated sequences. One successful approach is to base a kernel function for a support vector machine on shared occurrences of

We have developed an open-path hand-held gas detector incorporating a distributed feedback InGaAs laser diode at 1.65μm. Incorporated into a hand-held transceiver unit, the emitted laser beam is backscattered from nearby surfaces, collected and focussed onto an amplified InGaAs detector using a 150mm diameter plastic Presnel lens. At ranges of 4-5metres, a typical backscattered signal is tens of nanowatts of laser light. Applying second derivative wavelength modulation spectroscopy (WMS) gives a sensitivity to methane of better than 10 parts per million over a one metre path length. Chapter 1
