Content featuring next-generation weapons is continuously appearing in games and virtual reality. In the context of story development, the traces of a target's bullet marks are observed differently according to the unique characteristics of the rifle and bullet. Additionally, there is an example of using forensic ballistics to investigate crime by examining the traces of bullets. Understanding the relationship between the ballistic coefficient and cavity by ballistics is crucial during this process. This paper proposes a physics-based cavity simulation using the modified Bresenham's line algorithm, which can enhance realism in games and virtual reality. This simulation accurately models the trajectory of bullets and cavity formation upon impact, creating a more realistic representation of how bullets interact with materials. Overall, physics-based simulations can greatly enhance the realism and immersion of games and virtual reality experiences and can have applications in forensic investigations.

A diagnostic investigation is carried out to examine the igniter jet turbulence effects on the internal ballistics of solid rocket motors with divergent port. The numerical studies have been carried out with the help of a two dimensional k-omega turbulence model. It was inferred that increasing the igniter jet turbulence intensity is a possible way to decrease the pressure spike and pressurization rate, marginally during the ignition transient, by altering the location of the secondary ignition in solid rocket motors with non-uniform port.

This is a dimensionless analysis of interior ballistics for the design of gun tube. One of the characteristics of this analysis is to ues the .ETA.$_{j}$ number which means a relative quantity of virtual work to the kimetic energy of projectile at the muzzle. In order to apply the concept of virtual work, it is assumed that the projectile is moved from the beginning to the end of bore under constant pressure of the certain travel distance of projectile. The principle of the analysis is induced from the Le Duc equation, which expresses velocity as a function of projectile travel and is based on the translation of a hyperbolic curve. From this non-dimensional analysis, the optimum design parameters of pressure in the bore, velocity and acceleration of projectile can be obtained from the table of figure without computation. This method was verified by the experimental work.k.

하이브리드 추진제는 연소 중 연료의 후퇴율 및 연소 면적의 변화로 인해 O/F비가 변화하므로 이로 인해 설계 및 해석에 어려움을 가지게 된다. 본 연구에서는 요구임무를 만족하는 하이브리드 로켓모터에 대한 설계를 수행하였다. 하이브리드 모터의 기초 설계를 실시하고 그 결과를 이용하여, 일정한 산화제 유량이 공급된다는 가정 하에, 연소 시 연소면적변화에 따른 O/F비 변화를 고려한 하이브리드 모터의 내탄도 해석을 실시하였으며, 그 결과를 이용하여 로켓의 외탄도 해석을 실시하였다.

In order to improve the hitting rate in the shot of rifles, it is required that the analysis of exterior ballistics and the line of sight. One of the important factors influenced a marksman using a rifle obtained the zero-setting of a rifle at the horizontal range, is the deviation of the impact point from the aiming point when the shooting is performed in an inclined ranges. The deviation usually cccurs from the reaction force along the bore line, the characteristics of exterior ballistics, and the error of a shooting range judgement by the inclined range. This study is concerned with the problem of the vertical difference between the impact and aiming point in the inclined shooting ranges. The computing method to find the vertical difference is represented. This method is applied for and experimental rifle in three cases, (1) hofizontal shooting ranges, (2) upper inclined shooting ranges, and (3) lower inclined shooting ranges.

In this study, numerical methods for the code development of the interior ballistics have been conducted. Mathematical models and numerical methods for the analysis technique of the granular solid propellants have been investigated. As the results of applying the methods of errors have been generated by calculation for the specific surface area of the granular solid propellants. To remove these error, the developed Eulerian-Larangian method for multiphase flows has been suggested.

The "Potato Gun," a simple heat engine, is fabricated, tested and analyzed as a part of engineering education program of combustion and propulsion classes. Combustor pressure is predicted by the chemical equilibrium analysis of a constant volume combustor. Then, the internal ballistics, the conversion of thermal energy into the mechanical energy of a projectile, is predicted though the expansion process. The trajectory of a projectile is estimated by considering the aerodynamic effect around the spherical projectile. The energy conversion efficiency and the equivalence ratio of the fuel-air mixture could be estimated by the comparison of the experimental results and the theoretical prediction. The present work would be an example of attracting the interest of students for the application of the engineering principles at undergraduate level by recycling the waste materials.

At the stage conceptual design, combat vehicle is classified into three general categories of fire power, mobility and physical properties of system. The present research is restricted to fire power and its optimization. At the stage of conceptual designing of system, it is appropriate to consider major variables affecting fire power - including the weight of bullet, which exerts a direct influence on destroying effect, maximum range which takes long range firing in consideration. To estimate the maximum firing range, a simple interior ballistic and an exterior ballistic model were built by using the lumped parameter method, Le Duc method and point mass trajectory model. Design of experiment and regression analysis was used to derive simulations of fire power. Finally, response surface models were built and design variables were analyzed.

The current development tend of the gun propellants that they should have low sensitivity and high energy. We studied a nitrocellulose based propellant composition that replaced sensitive NG with RDX and DEGDN which high energy and low sensitivity. The important factors in the design of the gun propellant were impetus and flame temperature. NC-based propellant containing RDX showed similar impetus but low flame temperature compared to KM30A1, a triple-based propellant. The developed propellant composition didn't show any abnormal combustion reaction and the characteristics of ballistic resistance were also confirmed.
