Ballistic impact of hollow‐point ammunition on porcine bone

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, 2023
AbstractIdentifying failure mechanisms in skeletal tissue allows a deeper understanding of the effects of specific projectile impacts on bone. While ballistic trauma in flat bones is largely researched, knowledge of how long bones react to gunshot impacts is limited in the literature.

Ballistic and physical properties of highly fractured alumina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It is known that ceramic materials in armour are often shattered by a penetrating projectile and the resistance to penetration is therefore dependent upon the properties of this failed material.
