The use of human tissue surrogates in anatomical modeling for gunshot wounds simulations: an overview about “how to do” experimental terminal ballistics [PDF]
Human tissue simulating materials are currently used in scientific research mainly because they help to avoid possible ethical issues, unlike what happens with studies involving live animals and/or human cadavers.

Approximate ballistics formulas for spherical pellets in free flight
The ballistics equations for spherical pellets in free flight are simplified through appropriate scaling of the pellet velocity and pellet distance. Two different drag coefficient curves are averaged to yield a single curve applicable to shot pellets and

Diagnostic Challenges in Uncommon Firearm Injury Cases: A Multidisciplinary Approach [PDF]
Background: Firearm wounds tend to have a precise pattern. Despite this, real-world case presentations can present uncertain elements, sometimes deviating from what is considered standard, and present uncommon features that are difficult for forensic ...
