  2. Circular error probable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_error_probable

    The Spall and Maryak approach applies when the shot data represent a mixture of different projectile characteristics (e.g., shots from multiple munitions types or from multiple locations directed at one target).

  3. Ballistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballistics

    A projectile is any object projected into space (empty or not) by the exertion of a force. Although any object in motion through space (for example a thrown baseball) is a projectile, the term most commonly refers to a weapon. [8] [9] Mathematical equations of motion are used to analyze projectile trajectory. [citation needed]

  4. Fragmentation (weaponry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fragmentation_(weaponry)

    The correct term for those pieces is "fragments” (nicknamed “splinters” or “shards”). [1] Preformed fragments can be of various shapes (spheres, cubes, rods, etc.) and sizes and are normally held rigidly within some form of matrix or body until the high explosive (HE) filling is detonated.

  5. Fragment (logic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fragment_(logic)

    In mathematical logic, a fragment of a logical language or theory is a subset of this logical language obtained by imposing syntactical restrictions on the language. [1] Hence, the well-formed formulae of the fragment are a subset of those in the original logic. However, the semantics of the formulae in the fragment and in the logic coincide ...

  6. Range of a projectile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_of_a_projectile

    The surface of the projectile also must be considered: a smooth projectile will face less air resistance than a rough-surfaced one, and irregularities on the surface of a projectile may change its trajectory if they create more drag on one side of the projectile than on the other. However, certain irregularities such as dimples on a golf ball ...

  8. Terminal ballistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_ballistics

    Example photo of the over-penetration of a fragmenting projectile. This class of projectile is designed to break apart on impact whilst being of a construction more akin to that of an expanding bullet. Fragmenting bullets are usually constructed like the hollow-point projectiles described above, but with deeper and larger cavities.

    The following example uses the IFT function to pop an object from the bottom of the stack and, if it is equal to 1, replaces it with "One": « 1 == "One" IFT » The following example uses the IFTE function to pop an object from the bottom of the stack and, if it is equal to 1, replaces it with "One".
