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.
