Description:Covering a broad scope of topics related to ballistics, this book contains papers presented at the Third International Conference on Computational Ballistics, held June 6-8, 2007, in The New forest, UK. Ballistics, as a science, has a wide meaning and is present in many aspects of our everyday lives. Terminal ballistics, perhaps its most important branch, focuses on the study of the interaction between the munition and target and has many civilian applications, such as in car crashes and bird strikes on aircraft, and the consequent effects. This involves the study of impact, overall and microscopic structural resistance and behavior, and integrity.The papers cover Fluid flow aerodynamics; Interior ballistics; Terminal ballistics; Experimental mechanics/ballistics and field testing; New developments in computational techniques; and Systems and technology.
