Comparison of analytic Whipple bumper shield ballistic limits with CTH simulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
A series of CTH simulations were conducted to assess the feasibility of using the hydrodynamic code for debris cloud formation and to predict any damage due to the subsequent loading on rear structures.

Computational fluid dynamics simulations of airflow through the nasal passages of rhinolophoid bats

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The nasal passages of bats that emit their echolocation call through their nostrils have adapted for sound emission as well as standard respiratory and olfactory functions. Rhinolophids, hipposiderids and rhinonycterids all use a high duty cycle (HDC) echolocation strategy.

Ultrafast Transitions in X‐Ray Irradiated Solids

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this review, we present current developments on modeling ultrafast transitions in solids triggered by intense, atto‐ to femtosecond pulses from X‐ray free electron lasers. This specific irradiation regime requires dedicated simulation tools based on theoretical and computational methods, involving the elements of classical and quantum ...

Ballistic Performance Evaluation of Aluminium Plate Impact by Fragment Simulating Projectile

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2020
Abstract The ballistic performance has drawn attention to researchers from a military background. They intend to provide solutions to ensure the soldiers in the front line of war do not kill in action. A casualty in war can lead to depression among soldiers and not to mention to their family as well.
