Terminal Performance of Lead-Free Pistol Bullets in Ballistic Gelatin Using Retarding Force Analysis from High Speed Video
Elijah Courtney, Amy Courtney, Lubov Andrusiv +1
Due to concerns about environmental and industrial hazards of lead, a number of military, law enforcement, and wildlife management agencies are giving careful consideration to lead…
Device for Underwater Laboratory Simulation of Unconfined Blast Waves
Elijah Courtney, Amy Courtney, Michael Courtney
Shock tubes simulate blast waves to study their effects in air under laboratory conditions; however, few experimental models exist for simulating underwater blast waves that are ne…
A $55 Shock Tube for Simulated Blast Waves
Elijah Courtney, Amy Courtney, Michael Courtney
Shock tubes are commonly employed to test candidate armor materials, validate numerical models, and conduct simulated blast experiments in animal models. As DoD interests desire to…
Shock Tube Design for High Intensity Blast Waves for Laboratory Testing of Armor and Combat Materiel
Elijah Courtney, Amy Courtney, Michael Courtney
Shock tubes create simulated blast waves which can be directed and measured to study blast wave effects under laboratory conditions. It is desirable to increase available peak pres…
Studying the Internal Ballistics of a Combustion Driven Potato Cannon using High-speed Video
E. D. S. Courtney, M. W. Courtney
A potato cannon was designed to accommodate several different experimental propellants and have a transparent barrel so the movement of the projectile could be recorded on high-spe…
