Tabatabaeian, A. (author), Jerkovic, Bruno (author), Harrison, Philip (author), Marchiori, Elena (author), Fotouhi, M. (author)Visual inspection is one of the most common non-destructive testing (NDT) methods that offers a fast evaluation of surface damage in aerospace composite structures. However, it is highly dependent on human-related factors and may not detect barely visible impact damage (BVID). In this research, low velocity impact tests with different energy...journal article 2023

Cardaioli, Matteo (author), Conti, M. (author), Orazi, Gabriele (author), Tricomi, Pier Paolo (author), Tsudik, Gene (author)Authentication and de-authentication phases should occur at the beginning and end of secure user sessions, respectively. A secure session requires the user to pass the former, but the latter is often underestimated or ignored. Unattended or dangling sessions expose users to well-known Lunchtime Attacks. To mitigate this threat, researchers...journal article 2023
