Indirect Ballistic Injury Resulting in Non–ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction [PDF]
Gunshot-related myocardial injuries typically result from direct penetrating injury by the traversing bullet. We present a case of gunshot-related myocardial injury in the absence of direct penetrating injury to the cardiac structures and describe alternative mechanisms for ballistic-induced injury.

The effects of temperature and body mass on jump performance of the locust Locusta migratoria. [PDF]
Locusts jump by rapidly releasing energy from cuticular springs built into the hind femur that deform when the femur muscle contracts. This study is the first to examine the effect of temperature on jump energy at each life stage of any orthopteran ...

A Combined Field and Numerical Approach to Understanding Dilute Pyroclastic Density Current Dynamics and Hazard Potential: Auckland Volcanic Field, New Zealand [PDF]
The most dangerous and deadly hazards associated with phreatomagmatic eruption in the Auckland Volcanic Field (AVF; Auckland, New Zealand) are those related to volcanic base surges - dilute, ground-hugging, particle laden currents with dynamic pressures ...

Improved theory of generalized meteo-ballistic weighting factor functions and their use [PDF]
It follows from the analysis of artillery fire errors that approximately two-thirds of the inaccuracy of indirect artillery fire is caused by inaccuracies in the determination of the meteo parameters included in fire error budget model.

A lack of standard approaches for testing and reporting the performance of metal halide perovskites and organic semiconductor radiation detectors has resulted in inconsistent interpretation of performance parameters, impeding progress in the field. This Perspective recommends key metrics and experimental details, which are suggested for reporting in ...

Human supervision and microprocessor control of an optical tracking system [PDF]
Gunners using small calibre anti-aircraft systems have not been able to track high-speed air targets effectively. Substantial improvement in the accuracy of surface fire against attacking aircraft has been realized through the design of a director-type ...
