Characterisation of a gun recoil resistance model for use in internal ballistic modelling
(North-West University (South Africa), 2021)While ballistics focus on the behaviour of propellant and projectiles, gun mechanics covers the behaviour of all weapon components and mounts under launch conditions. Gun mechanics deals with the stress and strain of the ... -
The development of a semi-empirical barrel engraving resistance method for internal ballistic simulation codes
(North-West University (South Africa), 2021)This research focused on the implementation of a semi-empirical projectile barrel engraving resistance model for internal ballistic simulation codes. An alternative method is provided to determine the engraving resistance ... -
Selection of suitable sub-models for improved confidence in lumped parameter internal ballistic codes
(North-West University (South Africa), 2019)Gun systems manufacturers, propellant manufacturers, ballisticians, and the users of gun systems heavily rely on interior ballistic simulations to describe projectile behavior from the initial point of propellant ignition ...
