Kinetic Compensation of Barrel Launch Under High‐Speed Solid‐Phase Particulate Impacts
International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT An accurate launch‐dynamics computational method is critical for barrel weapon service life assessment and multiphase physics field refinement. Given the lack of studies on the solid‐phase buildup behavior at the projectile base, this paper provides an improved method for calculating the launching dynamics under high pressure and high speed ...

A Thoracic Mechanism of Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Due to Blast Pressure Waves [PDF]
, 2008 The mechanisms by which blast pressure waves cause mild to moderate traumatic brain injury (mTBI) are an open question. Possibilities include acceleration of the head, direct passage of the blast wave via the cranium, and propagation of the blast wave to

physica status solidi (RRL) – Rapid Research Letters, EarlyView.A two‐step approach based on broad‐beam ion irradiation is demonstrated to produce fine‐tuned self‐assembled surface patterns on MgO(001). It shows an efficient route to modifying the crystalline MgO(001) surface topography in a controlled way, making use of its very specific behavior in terms of both the pattern morphology and patterning dynamics.
