An experimental investigation of an underwater explosion (UNDEX) induced whipping response was conducted on a submerged platform. The platform was subjected to eight near-field, non-contact UNDEX events, using two explosive charge sizes at three longitudinal positions along the hull length, coinciding with predetermined peak and node positions of the natural bending mode responses of the platform.
Scientific publications
Our scientific output includes report literature
Our scientific and technical publications are an important vehicle for the dissemination of our work.
We have several goals for our publications:
- To communicate the results of the research program to clients and fulfil our reporting responsibilities to the Department of Defence.
- To record the results of our research program.
- To communicate the results of scientific research and technical information to Australian industry and academia.
- To increase awareness of and enhance the reputation of DST Group.

Latest scientific publications
General document
The Emerging and Disruptive Technology Assessment Symposium (EDTAS) series is a technology foresighting program under the Next Generation Technologies Fund designed to provide key insights and information on emerging and potential technologies over the longer term. In November 2017, DST joined with Noetic Group and the University of Melbourne to hold an EDTAS on Advanced Materials and Manufacturing.
Technical note
This document describes the use of Cards and how it may be readily extended to support other systems.
Technical note
This technical note explores the following refinements to speed up Phi*:
Technical report
In this report we focus on solving the Schrödinger equation numerically for several simple potentials using Fourier and Chebyshev pseudo-spectral methods.
Technical report
This report describes the design of a high performance high frequency (HF) active antenna starting from the antenna rod and finishing with the output buffer stage which drives the co-axial transmission line feeding a receiver.
Technical note
This report describes a simple cost-effective method of measuring the activity of GPCRs coupled to the cAMP signalling pathway.
Technical report
Here we consider the application and suitability of the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) compression method and a simpler approach to Discrete Probability Density Maps (DPDMs).
Technical note
The goal of this report is, using the 2005 survey of the civilian population, to determine if a survey of the potential aircrew population could be conducted at fewer locations, hence, saving both time and money.
