Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Measuring impulse from explosive charges in contact and near‐field configurations presents practical challenges due to wide variation in impulse magnitude. Ballistic pendula are widely used for impulse measurement, but many existing designs are limited to narrow operating envelopes or are poorly suited to repeated contact testing and tamped ...

How Enrichment Aesthetic Shapes Zoo Visitor Perceptions of Chimpanzee Behavior and Conservation
Zoo Biology, EarlyView.Enrichment aesthetic (natural vs non‐natural) does not impact visitor perceptions of chimpanzee behavior, conservation, or pet suitability. Most visitors associate chimpanzees with a conservation status of vulnerable, rather than endangered. ABSTRACT Public perceptions of chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) are shaped by the context in which they are viewed.
