The Army Spreads Its Wings: Army Aviation And Its Influence On War, Christopher J. Braund Oct 2026

The Army Spreads Its Wings: Army Aviation And Its Influence On War, Christopher J. Braund

Doctoral Dissertations and Projects

Today’s United States Army operates some of the world's most advanced helicopters, conducting some of the most dangerous aerial insertions and close air support missions. Every Army infantry division has a helicopter brigade, with capabilities ranging from command-and-control to attack, scout, and lift assets. Yet, that is a relatively new concept. Developed in the 1960s, the air mobility doctrine emerged from the Eisenhower Administration’s New Look defense policy, giving the Army direction on how to use helicopters within its overall land warfare capability. This dissertation looks at how that occurred. It fills a major gap in the historiography of Army …

A Web-Based Multi-Modal Ai Framework For Intelligent Content Moderation With Constructive Feedback, Marwah Zaid Mohammed Al-Helali, Naveen Palanichamy, Su-Cheng Haw, Subhashini Gopal Oct 2026

A Web-Based Multi-Modal Ai Framework For Intelligent Content Moderation With Constructive Feedback, Marwah Zaid Mohammed Al-Helali, Naveen Palanichamy, Su-Cheng Haw, Subhashini Gopal

Journal of Informatics and Web Engineering

Traditional content moderation systems primarily rely on strict measures that focus on removing offending or inappropriate content without offering users any form of educational feedback or guidance. This lack of constructive interaction often leads to a poor user experience, leaving users frustrated and uninformed regarding the reasons behind content removal. Moreover, such a system fails to encourage long-term positive behavioural changes within online communities, as users do not gain insights on how to improve their conduct. This paper proposes a new constructive Artificial Intelligence (AI) intervention system that integrates a number of AI models in order to conceptualize content moderation …
