The use of gelatine in wound ballistics research. [PDF]
Int J Legal Med, 2018 Blocks of gelatine are used in both lethality and survivability studies for broadly the same reason, i.e. comparison of ammunition effects using a material that it is assumed represents (some part of) the human body. The gelatine is used to visualise the

Firearm Injuries: A Review of Wound Ballistics and Related Emergency Management Considerations
Emergency Care and MedicineGunshot injuries are challenging conditions because of the unique characteristics of the wounding agents producing soft tissue damage that may be compounded by the formation of an expanding temporary cavity (cavitation).

The ‘triple contrast’ method in experimental wound ballistics and backspatter analysis [PDF]
Zeitschrift für Rechtsmedizin, 2015 In practical forensic casework, backspatter recovered from shooters' hands can be an indicator of self-inflicted gunshot wounds to the head. In such cases, backspatter retrieved from inside the barrel indicates that the weapon found at the death scene ...

Noninvasive 7 tesla MRI of fatal craniocerebral gunshots - a glance into the future of radiologic wound ballistics. [PDF]
Forensic Sci Med Pathol, 2020 Compared to computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides superior visualization of the soft tissue. Recently, the first 7 Tesla (7 T) MRI scanner was approved for clinical use, which will facilitate access to these ultra-high-field

Comparison of porcine thorax to gelatine blocks for wound ballistics studies. [PDF]
Int J Legal Med, 2016 Tissue simulants are typically used in ballistic testing as substitutes for biological tissues. Many simulants have been used, with gelatine amongst the most common. While two concentrations of gelatine (10 and 20 %) have been used extensively, no agreed

Investigation into The Behavior of Nano-composite Tubes at Ballistic Impact [PDF]
Mechanics of Advanced Composite Structures, 2017 In this study, the behavior of filament wound nanocomposite tubes under transverse impact loading is investigated. Experimental specimens were manufactured using Epon 828 resin with 0.5, 1.5 and 3 weight percentages of nano silica. Because of the varying
