The usual practice of the laboratory is to carry out 'open book' research unless the customer(s) require non-disclosure. Below is a list of the reports from previous research projects with links for those available for public viewing. Where disclosure is unrestricted a PDF copy of the information is linked to its associated project below.
You can organize NEAR's projects by these categories:
