  2. Subsonic ammunition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subsonic_ammunition

    In this instance, heavier bullets are loaded in standard ammunition, which reduces muzzle velocity below the speed of sound. As an example, the very common 9×19mm Parabellum standard military round is a 7.5 g (116 gr) bullet at velocities typically around 360 m/s (1,200 ft/s). Subsonic loads for 9×19mm Parabellum commonly use 9.5 g (147 gr ...

  3. Hydrostatic shock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_shock

    An early mention of "hydrostatic shock" appeared in Popular Mechanics in April 1942. [7] In the scientific literature, the first discussion of pressure waves created when a bullet hits a living target is presented by E. Harvey Newton and his research group at Princeton University in 1947: [8]

  4. Table of explosive detonation velocities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_explosive...

    This is a compilation of published detonation velocities for various high explosive compounds. Detonation velocity is the speed with which the detonation shock wave travels through the explosive.

    where P s is the peak pressure and t* is the time at which the pressure first crosses the horizontal axis (before the negative phase). Blast waves will wrap around objects and buildings. [13] Therefore, persons or objects behind a large building are not necessarily protected from a blast that starts on the opposite side of the building.

    The latest variant of the T-90M has been designed with some of the spare ammunition in an external storage, which reduces the likelihood, but does not completely eliminate the risk of a "turret toss". [8] [better source needed] A destroyed Russian tank, with the turret to the right showing the results of the jack-in-the-box effect

  7. Shock wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_wave

    In physics, a shock wave (also spelled shockwave), or shock, is a type of propagating disturbance that moves faster than the local speed of sound in the medium. Like an ordinary wave, a shock wave carries energy and can propagate through a medium, but is characterized by an abrupt, nearly discontinuous, change in pressure , temperature , and ...

  8. Normal shock tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_shock_tables

    In aerodynamics, the normal shock tables are a series of tabulated data listing the various properties before and after the occurrence of a normal shock wave. [1] With a given upstream Mach number, the post-shock Mach number can be calculated along with the pressure, density, temperature, and stagnation pressure ratios.

  9. Shcramjet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shcramjet

    A shock-induced combustion ramjet engine (abbreviated as shcramjet; also called oblique detonation wave engine; also called standing oblique detonation ramjet (sodramjet); [1] or simply referred to as shock-ramjet engine) is a concept of air-breathing ramjet engine, proposed to be used for hypersonic and/or single-stage-to-orbit propulsion applications.
