Initial Muscle Activity in Planar Ballistic Arm Movements with Varying External Force Directions [PDF]
We have investigated, in fast movements, the hypothesis that bi-articular muscles are preferentially selected to control me direction of force exerted on the environment, while mono-articular muscles are selected to control both this exerted force direction as well as the movement direction. Fourteen subjects performed ballistic arm movements involving

Calculation of destruction probability for anti-aircraft gun burst firing based on the mechanism of projectile-target engagement [PDF]
The traditional model for calculating the destruction probability of anti-aircraft gun burst firing uses the method of calculating the average number of hits required for destruction, which obscures the differences in elements such as firing elements ...

The development of a high speed wind channel for research in external ballistics [PDF]
Abstract In November, 1918, the British Ballistic Mission paid a visit to the French Government Laboratory in which experiments on stationary projectiles in a high-speed current of air were being carried out at velocities greater than the velocity of sound by MM. Langevin, Hugenard and Ste. Lague.

Weapons barrel life cycle determination
This article describes the dynamic processes within the gun barrel during the firing process in exploitation. It generally defines the basic principles of constructing tube elements, and shows the distortion of the basic geometry of the tube interior due
