Hitting a bullet with a bullet: an analysis of colliding bullets using experimental data and explicit simulation methods [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science
A method to simultaneously fire and achieve a nose-to-nose collision of two bullets was created and compared to simulated results. This research focused on symmetric Taylor impact test techniques applied to 45-caliber Hornady 45177 full metal jacket (FMJ)

Dynamic Performance Enhancement of a High‐Agility Hypersonic Mechanical System via a Learning‐Augmented Robust Control Architecture

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The design of control systems for high‐agility mechanical systems operating in extreme environments is a significant challenge in nonlinear dynamics. This paper addresses the complex dynamic control problem of a hypersonic interceptor, modeled as a multi‐input multi‐output (MIMO) mechanical system characterized by strong aerodynamic cross ...

Initial temperature influence on the powder speed combustion in the high pressure range

open access: yesVojnotehnički Glasnik, 1997
The initial temperature influence on the ballistics characteristics of powder is considered as well as the parameters of gas dynamics calculations. Analytical methods for thermal chemical and interior ballistics calculations are used.

Asymmetric transferability of trait–environment relationships between native and exotic plant species in Singaporean forests differing in land‐use history

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Functional traits allow ecologists to synthesise general rules of community assembly. In joint species distribution modelling, traits are increasingly used to explain species–environment relationships, with the intention of being able to generalise predictions to other species in other systems.

Radiation Shielding Performance of B4C‐Reinforced Ultra‐High Molecular Weight Polyethylene Composites Against Low‐Energy X‐Rays: Experimental and Computational Analysis

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Radiation shielding behavior of B4C‐reinforced UHMWPE composites. ABSTRACT The present study investigates the radiation shielding performance of ultra‐high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) composites reinforced with varying boron carbide (B4C) contents against low‐energy X‐rays through combined experimental and computational approaches.

Design and Development of a Modular Ballistic Pendulum for High‐Impulse Measurement in Contact and Near‐Field Explosive Loading

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Measuring impulse from explosive charges in contact and near‐field configurations presents practical challenges due to wide variation in impulse magnitude. Ballistic pendula are widely used for impulse measurement, but many existing designs are limited to narrow operating envelopes or are poorly suited to repeated contact testing and tamped ...

Direct Measurement of Explosive Impulse From Contact to the Ultra‐Near Field

open access: yesPropellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Measurement of impulse from explosive charges in contact and ultra‐near‐field regimes remains poorly characterised due to the short duration of loading, high strain rates, and the difficulty of obtaining direct momentum‐based measurements.

Strategy for One‐Step Optimization of Metal Oxide Passivating Contact Materials for Si Heterojunction Solar Cells through Growth Angle Variation

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
A one‐step oblique angle reactive sputtering approach enables simultaneous tuning of bulk and interfacial stoichiometry in a metal oxide/ silicon heterojunction. In case of vanadium oxides, growth angle variation controls the formation of stoichiometric SiO2, ternary SiOx(V) interlayer, and phase purity of vanadium oxide, considerably simplifying the ...

Preventing Plasma‐Induced Resist Hardening in Molybdenum Disulfide Transistors via Sacrificial Metal Mask Lithography

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Photoresist (PR) residue significantly degrades the electrical performance of 2D semiconductors such as MoS2. In particular, the intrinsically ultrathin nature of these materials makes them highly susceptible to damage during conventional PR cleaning procedures.
