The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 0.7 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 0.7 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.1 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00016 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.18 SJR: 0.313 SNIP: 0.6 CiteScore™:: 1.6 H-Index: 16

摘要

Air and particulate emissions are a growing concern in both military and civilian activities around the world. Over the last five years in Canada, they have become more important to defence projects specifically for two aspects: live-firing training and demilitarization. Recently, for the live-firing aspect, the Canadian Department of National Defence (DND), and especially Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) – Valcartier, have performed several trials to sample air and particulate emissions from firings of various Canadian munitions: small arms and large calibres. For the demilitarization aspect, the United States (U.S.) Department of Defence (DoD) began a program on the characterization of air emissions from open burning and open detonation. Canada shares the same interests and also wants to determine the nature and the quantity of substances dispersed in the environment from open burning and open detonation. This paper will present an overview of the sampling methods developed at DRDC Valcartier to collect gas and particulate emissions at the muzzle of a gun from live-firings during military training. In fact, two types of set-up, outdoor and indoor, were used to study gas and particulate emissions from live-firing. Combustion gases, semivolatile and volatile organic compounds, and particle emissions obtained from these two set-ups will be presented. It was observed that the indoor set-up allowed the detection of extra compounds compared to the outdoor set-up for which the dilution effect is too important to detect them. Moreover, the influence of propelling charges, i.e. the amount of gun propellant in the combustion chamber for the firing, on air emissions quality will be discussed. Finally, for the demilitarization aspect, the Canadian program that began in 2012 will be presented.
