In order to meet the high uniformity calibration requirements for scientific-grade, large-size space detectors used in the CHES Extrasolar Planet Exploration Mission, this paper presents the design of a wide dynamic range, high uniformity spectral irradiance source (WHUIS).Utilizing a cascade integrating sphere design, and optimizing the overlappin
This work focuses on the combination of two complementary non-destructive techniques to analyse the final deformation and internal damage induced in aramid composite plates subjected to ballistic impact.The first analysis device, a 3D scanner, allows digitalising the surface of the tested specimen.Comparing Maternity with the initial geometry, the
With declaring the highly transmissible COVID-19 as a pandemic, an unprecedented strain on healthcare infrastructures worldwide occurred.An enormous shortage in the personal protective equipment (PPE) and the spare parts (SP) for the mechanical ventilators ensued as a consequence of the failure of the centralized global supply chains.Additive manuf
