This book was released on 1985 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental program has been undertaken to study the phenomenon of both normal and oblique impact of cylindro-conical and cylindrical projectiles on metallic plates, a domain where almost no test data is available. Hard-steel strikers of 12.7-micrometer nominal diameter and either 60-degree conical or blunt tips and blunt soft aluminum cylinders of the same diameter were fired at 2024-0 aluminum targets with thicknesses from 1.78 to 25.4- micrometer and at both mild steel and medium carbon steel with thicknesses up to 19.05-micrometer. Initial velocities ranged from about 20 to 1025 m/s, achieved with the aid of a pneumatic cannon at low speeds and a powder gun in the upper velocity range. Initial target obliquity was varied from normal to 50 degrees.

Download or read book Impact on Moving Structures and Effects of Striker Yaw and Tumbling written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three separate non-standard conditions of projectile impact and perforation of plates were investigated experimentally and analytically. The first concerned impingement of blunt 0.25 in. dia. hard-steel cylinders on stationary thin plates of aluminum and steel at yaw angles up to 19 deg at velocities from 115-285 m/s. Damage was produced by bulging, lateral indentation and front and side petaling. Measurements of the ballistic limit and terminal velocity were compared with predictions of a model utilizing simplifying phenomenological assumptions. Predictions underestimated the ballistic limit by up to 14% with better correlation at higher yaw angles; they were found to be in good accord with observed final speeds. The second topic involved the effect of striker tumbling on the impact response of thin and moderately thick stationary targets of aluminum, steel and polycarbonate. The 1/2 in dia. blunt projectiles impinged the plates at longitudinal speeds from 250-700 m/s and rotational speeds up to 3600 rad/s. Perforation and post-perforation measurements, including final velocities, oblique angles and crater sizes compared well with predictions of both an analytical and a numerical model.

Book excerpt: Providing new chapters, homework problems, case studies, figures, and examples, Ballistics: Theory and Design of Guns and Ammunition, Second Edition encourages superior design and innovative applications in the field of ballistics. It examines the analytical and computational tools used to predict a weapon’s behavior in terms of pressure, stress, and velocity, demonstrating their applications in ammunition and weapons design. What’s New in the Second Edition: Includes computer examples in Mathcad (available on the CRC website) Adds a section of color plates, to better help readers visualize the physical concepts of ballistics Contains sections on modern explosives equations of state for detonation physics modeling and on probability of hit Provides a solutions manual for those teaching college and training courses This book covers exterior ballistics, exploring the physics behind trajectories, including linear and nonlinear aeroballistics, and focuses on the effects of projective impact, including details on shock physics, shaped charges, penetration, fragmentation, and wound ballistics. Reviews and integrates the fundamental science and engineering concepts involved in guns and ammunition Uses straightforward, easy-to-read style, and careful development of complex topics Shares insights rooted in the experience of renowned experts, many associated with the National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA) and International Ballistics Society The field of ballistics comprises three main areas of specialization: interior, exterior, and terminal ballistics. This book explains all three areas, offering a seamless presentation of the complex phenomena that occur during the launch, flight, and impact of a projectile.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shooting Incident Reconstruction, Second Edition, offers a thorough explanation of matters from simple to complex to help the reader understand the factors surrounding ballistics, trajectory, and shooting scenes. Forensic scientists, law enforcement, and crime scene investigators are often tasked with reconstruction of events based on crime scene evidence, along with the subsequent analysis of that evidence. The use and misuse of firearms to perpetrate crimes from theft to murder necessitates numerous invitations to reconstruct shooting incidents. The discharge of firearms and the behavior of projectiles create many forms of physical evidence that, through proper testing and interpretation by a skilled forensic scientist, can establish what did and what did not occur. Written by the world's most well-respected shooting scene and ballistics experts, the book addresses the terminology, science, and factors involved in reconstructing shooting incident events to solve forensic cases. It covers the full range of related topics including: the range from which a firearm was discharged; the sequence of shots in a multiple discharge shooting incident; the position of a firearm at the moment of discharge; and the position of a victim at the moment of impact. The probable flight path of a projectile and the manner in which a firearm was discharged are also discussed. Case studies illustrate real-world application of technical concepts, supported by over 200 full-color diagrams and photographs. This book will be of value to practicing forensic scientists (firearm and toolmark examiners), ballistics experts, crime scene personnel, police departments, forensic consultants (generalists), attorneys and judges, medical examiners (coroners), and forensic pathologists. - Written by the most well-respected shooting scene and ballistics experts in the world - Contains over 200 full-color diagrams and photographs that support and illustrate key concepts - Case studies illustrate real-world application of technical concepts
