    PROBLEMS OF MECHATRONICS ARMAMENT , AVIATION , SAFETY ENGINEERING ISSN 2081-5891 2 (4), 2011, 7-28 Specific Design Features of Solid Propellant Rocket Motors for Shoulder-Launched Weapon Systems * Berko ZECEVIC, Jasmin TERZIC, Mario BASKARAD, Alan CATOVIC, Sabina SERDAREVIC-KADIC and Zijo PEKIC University of Sarajevo, Mechanical Engineering Faculty, Defence Technologies Department Vilsonovo setaliste 9, 71000 Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina Abstract. Solid propellant rocket motors for Shoulder Launched Infantry Weapon Systems (SLWS) are characterized with a very short burning time, high-pressure combustion and a wide spectrum of design solutions for rocket motor structure. Interior ballistic behaviour of such rocket motors depends on many factors such as design structure, propellant grain shape, propellant grain joint to the rocket motor case, type and location of the igniter, spinning mode and nozzle design. Erosive burning also plays important role due to high combustion gases mass flow rate. Numerical simulation of the igniter combustion gases flow through the hollow of the propellant grain tubes with gas temperature distribution was carried out in this paper. Results confirmed assumptions that igniter interior gas flow affected duration of the pressure rise. A mathematical model approach for prediction of the curve p = f( t) which was included in a model of the corrected propellant grain burning surface for two types of short-time rocket motors has been presented. A good agreement with measured curves was achieved. Keywords: short-action solid rocket motor, burning rate, ignition time, derivative dp/dt , regression model * Presented at 8 th International Armament Conference on „Scientific Aspects of Armament and Safety Technology”, Pułtusk, Poland, 6-8 October, 2010.

  • Paper Presents the Methodology Used in a Technical and Operational Study About the « Interest and Cost of the Muratisation of Ammunitions of the French Army »
    National Defense Industrial A ssociation Insensitive M unitions European Manufacturers G roup 2006 Insensitive Munitions & Energetic Materials Technology Symposium Study on Interest and Cost of the Muratisation of Ammunitions of the French Army April 24-28, 2006 Thistle Hotel, Bristol, United Kingdom Barioz Florent, Longuet Baptiste, Vaillant Thierry, Riehl Nicolas, Aussillou Frédéric, Yodo Alain 1 1 Etablissement Technique de BourgeS - Echangeur de Guerry – Rocade Est – 18 021 Bourges Cedex Introduction This paper presents the methodology used in a technical and operational study about the « Interest and Cost of the Muratisation of Ammunitions of the French Army ». A systematic approach has been applied on four ammunitions : 120 mm OFL F1, 120 mm OECC, ERYX and 155 mm LU211. The tool used to complete this study is a software provided by the MSIAC : CBAM “Cost Benefit Analysis Model”. The most important part of the work is certainly the collect of several data for each case and their validation. One part of the data is linked to the lifecycle where numerous situations must be considered. For each situation, different events must be identified, probability of occurrences of these events must be determined and effects of this events must be estimated in term of financial cost. A support to estimate damages is the French decree 79-846 (1979). Other requirements are the estimation of IM signature of considered ammunitions and knowledge of the IM state of the art in order to estimate signature, performance and cost associated to IM version of these ammunitions. Data have been estimated by experts of the domain and a part of the validation has been made by the steering committee of the study.

Accepted June 17, 2020. Published online at www.senckenberg.de/vertebrate-zoology on June 26, 2020. Published in print on Q3/2020. Editor in charge: Uwe Fritz Abstract Recent advances in the phylogenetic relationships of snakes using both molecular and morphological data have generally demonstrated a close relationship between boas and pythons but also induced nomenclatural changes that rob the least inclusive clade to which both belong of a name. This name would be tremendously useful, because it is the least inclusive group to which a large number of fossil boa-like or python-like taxa can be assigned. Accordingly, an update of higher-level nomenclature is desirable. We herein provide an overview of all the names that have historically been applied to boas and pythons. We show that the earliest name for the supra-familial group encompass- ing boas and pythons is Constrictores Oppel, 1811.
