In the pilot of episode of our new Russia in Context podcast series, host Jeff Hawn sits down with New Lines' own OSInt Manager Aram Shabanian; Kirill Shamiev, visiting fellow at the European Council of Foreign Relations; and Sim Tack, an analyst for Force Analysis. These Russia experts discuss the evolution of Russian military capability, its contrasts with the West, and the successes and failures of the Russian military.
Jacob welcomes back fan-favorite Sim Tack to discuss the future of the war in Ukraine. The next 12 months (assuming it will last that long) are going to be a test of Ukraine's resolve, Europe's willingness to isolate Russia, and the US's desire to continue providing funding/supplies. Sim and Jacob ponder the clandestine operator that bombed the Nordstream pipeline, and try to figure out whether or not Ukraine will be receiving some fighter jets to move into offensive mode.

On Oct. 10, Russia announced it was deploying troops to Belarus under a regional group of forces mechanism, mobilizing thousands of forces, fighter jets, tanks, armored vehicles, and other equipment to Belarus. The move has raised valid questions about whether Russia and Belarus are planning a renewed offensive against Kyiv, reigniting fighting in Ukraine's northern front. In this episode, Senior Analyst Caroline Rose sits down with Sim Tack, geopolitical and military analyst at Force Analysis, to review the constraints, imperatives, and likelihood of a joint Russian-Belarusian assault on the Ukrainian capital, as well as space for action for the U.S. and its partners.

Have you ever made a mistake and excused the behavior by saying, “Well, I'm only human!” There is so much truth in that statement the only problem is we often do not take the time to unpack what it means to be human. My guest today is Mike Musengo. Mike is a Force Science Institute instructor and prior law enforcement SWAT Team leader. He has walked through numerous critical incidents and has had to face how human factors play into how we respond to adversity and how we heal from difficult circumstances. We cover the topics of human performance, biomechanics, learning, acquisition of new skills, attention, inattentional blindness, human errors, and human sensory systems. A recently retired Police Training Commander and Director of a mid-sized Regional Police Academy in upstate NY, Sergeant Mike Musengo has studied and implemented non-traditional and empirically supported methods of training which optimizes long term learning, retention and skill transfer into the LEO training experience. These methods coupled with his experience as an instructor in human performance factors has helped him develop training curriculum for not only the officer on the street but the trainers who are responsible for them. Mike's innovative application of scientifically supported methods of training have gained the attention, praise and application from top trainers in the profession. His focus is on how we can help each other become more competent instructors, coaches and leaders within our industry. “Our people, our vocation demand nothing short of highly skilled Professional Instructors.” Mike has also successfully completed the Certification in Force Analysis course and is a graduate of the Advanced Force Science Specialist Course. Mike is also known for his work with the Force Science Institute in many capacities including Instructor in these highly esteemed courses across the US. Mike is also a nationally recognized IADLEST Certified Instructor and considered an expert in several domains within the Law Enforcement profession.

This study describes a technique for measuring human grip forces exerted on a cylindrical object via a sensor array. Standardised resistor-based pressure sensor arrays for industrial and medical applications have been available for some time. We used a special 20 mm diameter grip rod that subjects could either move actively with their fingers in the horizontal direction or exert reactive forces against opposing forces generated in the rod by a linear motor. The sensor array film was attached to the rod by adhesive tape and covered approximately 45 cm(2) of the rod surface. The sensor density was 4/cm(2) with each sensor having a force resolution of 0.1 N. A scan across all sensors resulted in a corresponding frame containing force values at a frame repetition rate of 150/s. The force value of a given sensor was interpreted as a pixel value resulting in a false-colour image. Based on remote sensed image analysis an algorithm was developed to distinguish significant force-representing pixels from those affected by noise. This allowed tracking of the position of identified fingers in subsequent frames such that spatio-temporal grip force profiles for individual fingers could be derived. Moreover, the algorithm allowed simultaneous measurement of forces exerted without any constraints on the number of fingers or on the position of the fingers. The system is thus well suited for basic and clinical research in human physiology as well as for studies in psychophysics.
