The child as a projectile [PDF]

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, 1998
Unintentional injury is the leading cause of death in children under the age of fourteen. The majority of these injuries/deaths occur when the child becomes airborne during an accident. The most common mechanisms by which children become airborne are motor vehicle collisions, bicycling accidents, and falls. A head injury is seen in a significant number

Implementation of a Realistic Damage Model in a Simulated Environment [PDF]

open access: yesProblemy Mechatroniki, 2019
Realism is an important aspect of the virtual shooting range, which increases the quality of the shooting training conducted there. An important element of realism is the modeling of damage arising during the impact of the projectile on the target.

Kinetic energy less lethal weapons and their associated blunt trauma injuries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A widely used class of Less Lethal Weapon is the kinetic energy projectile. This can cause blunt trauma to the targeted person and, under certain circumstances, its use can result in permanent injury or death.

Numerical simulation of projectile penetration into steel plate based on material point method

open access: yesZhongguo Jianchuan Yanjiu, 2018
[Objectives] The FE method cannot accurately simulate crevasse patterns and the crevasse forming process when dealing with a projectile penetrating into a ship's plate because of mesh distortion.

Projectile for a New Intermediate Cartridge [PDF]

open access: yesProblemy Mechatroniki, 2022
Evolution of contemporary military conflicts has revealed some shortcomings of existing individual small arms ammunition. The first attempts to undertake research and development works on new weapons and ammunition were made in the USA, however, some ...

On the Air Resistance of Projectiles [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1931
In making this study, the author had in mind its applications to the problem of meteoric impact. The different laws of resistance, heretofore proposed, contain too many empirical or hypothetical elements to permit a safe extrapolation to cosmic velocities.
