Explosive weapons

projectiles at the enemy from 140 yards away and can explode everything in the radius of the target (Bracetti). The HK M320 grenade launcher fires NATU grenades which are highly explosive, illuminating, and let out smoke. This grenade launcher can also be attached to regular firearms for better…

The Law Enforcement Agencies have a variety of departments for the many scenarios that occur or have the possibility to occur and put people in danger. The Explosive Ordinance Disposal team, Special Weapons And Tactics team and K-9 are units inside a police department that are specialized to solve a specific scenario. Each unit has extra training apart from the everyday training to keep them in good physical condition. These units also carry extra gear with the equipment needed to carry out…

Composition C Composition C (C4) is the standard HE (high explosive) for the military. One block of M112 C4 weighs 1.25 pounds and has a TNT equivalent of 1.30. It is extremely stable, insensitive and powerful. The plastic explosive has a texture of clay and can be formed to any shape. Improvised explosive device (IED) IED’s are the weapons of choice for terrorist. They are crudely constructed bombs made from various conventional or homemade explosives and anything else available to the…

the accords were supported and signed by the United States which bring up some issues regarding if the accords are constitutional. Is it constitutional to force people to be registered, to regulate the actions of free citizens, and limit the use of weapons? Is it constitutional to force people to be register so they may be monitored?…

surrounding air domain were modeled using Eulerian mesh. The explosive was modelled based on the Jones-Wilkins-Lee (JWL) equation of state (EOS) [35]. The EOS is in wide speared use owing to its straightforwardness and due to the fact that most high explosives are well modelled by this equation. The JWL equation allows a suitable approximation of overpressure, which has been widely used in numerical computations. The evolution of the explosive after ignition is described by JWL equation of…

There are two basic types of fireworks that form the big displays in the sky: firecrackers and sparklers. They are made in different ways. Firecrackers are rolled paper tubes that are filled with gunpowder called black powder or a fuse and flash paper. As you light the fuse, fire burns along the fuse and when it reaches the powder there is a loud explosion. Sparklers, though, make colorful, long lasting light. They contain more ingredients which means they burn longer and produce a light and…

Agency (DTRA) is a multifaceted organization, providing expertise to America and our allies in order to reduce the potential threat of weapons of mass destruction. This organization was developed to mitigate the potential threat, providing reach-back capabilities, eliminate, and reduce the usage of any chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and high yield explosives. We will discuss the creation of the organization, the Joint Improvised Threat Defeat Organization (JIDO), the DTRA reach back…

the first true modernized war because of all the technologically advanced weapons used in this war. Weapons were now able to be mass produced and were much more accurate than previously used weapons. These weapons were also much more powerful and could shoot much farther. With the advances in weaponry happening so rapidly, many of the old war tactics used also had to be changed. With all these rapid advancements in weapons, transportation had also continued to advance with the railroad and…

been intensified since 2012, when the first weaponized rail gun was released by the US navy. Since then, the railgun has been believed to be a powerful weapon that will overshadow other conventional weapons. This investigation is to determine if railguns should replace conventional weapons in the future. Electromagnetic railguns are long range weapons that fires projectiles (electrically conductive) with electricity. The current supplied to the rails which flows up one rail and down the other…

The rapid acquisition program established to procure the Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle was a success story that significantly differed from normal procurement programs. For limited time-sensitive requirements, this acquisition method is effective but, should not be adopted for traditional Department of Defense (DOD) Major Defense Acquisition Programs (MDAPs). The amount of senior leader involvement and risk acceptance required for the MRAP program would not be suitable or…
