Inconsistency in 9 mm bullets : correlation of jacket thickness to post-impact geometry measured with non-destructive X-ray computed tomography [PDF]
Fundamental to any ballistic armour standard is the reference projectile to be defeated. Typically, for certification purposes, a consistent and symmetrical bullet geometry is assumed, however variations in bullet jacket dimensions can have far reaching ...

We reconstruct the major cranial musculature of the giant stem amphibian Mastodonsaurus giganteus, revealing a differentiated jaw‐adductor system, a probable sesamoid pulley, and previously unrecognised muscles. This EPB‐based case study establishes an anatomical framework for modelling feeding in early tetrapods and supports interpretations of ...

Abstract The present study investigated learning new meanings of known words from reading, following Hulme et al.’s (2018) study. English speakers read four short stories containing 16 critical words (i.e., familiar word forms assigned invented secondary meanings).

Being Biased and Knowing How to Reason
ABSTRACT This essay explains how reasoning is action and not reflex. It then uses that theory to explain one form of knowing how to reason. Reasoning is thinking biased by knowledge. Drawing on Louise Antony's emphasis on bias as critical for dealing with underdetermination in induction, I show that underdetermination confronts all forms of reasoning ...

ABSTRACT South Korea presents a puzzle for threat‐centered accounts of allied nuclear politics. Why did South Korea advance into covert state‐directed exploration of a nuclear weapons option before North Korea possessed nuclear weapons, yet refrain from renewed state‐directed pursuit after North Korea built a substantial nuclear arsenal and posed a ...

Computational Modeling of Decision Making Enhances the Adversity Researcher's Toolbox
Abstract Over the past decades, there has been major progress in our understanding of how adversity influences cognitive abilities and strategies. However, most of this research is based on raw performance, such as response times and accuracy. These measures are informative about decision‐making outcomes but tell us little about cognitive processes. In

Generalization of Motor Learning in Psychological Space
Abstract The capacity to generate adaptive movements largely depends on how we generalize what we have previously learned to novel situations. The generalization of adapted movements has typically been framed as a consequence of neural tuning functions that overlap for similar movement kinematics—what might be considered bottom‐up generalization ...

Tracing the Untraceable: A Review and Discussion on the Forensic Attribution of 3D‐Printed Firearms
3D‐printed firearms are rapidly evolving and challenge traditional forensic identification. This review highlights emerging attribution methods, from deposition striae and base‐plate marks to polymer and GSR residual traces, firing marks, and quantitative imaging, identifying the research needed to support robust forensic attribution interpretation and

Maximizing Neurovascular Outcomes of Facial Transplantation: A Comprehensive Review
ABSTRACT Facial transplantation is a division of reconstructive surgery which aims to improve the function and appearance of a face that has endured severe disfigurement. Currently, the face transplant procedure uses allogenic tissue, harvested from a brain‐dead donor, to replace damaged facial components.
