Its purpose is to get an overview of the military utility of cluster munitions, and to find to which degree their capacity can be substituted by current conventional weapons or weapons that are on the verge of becoming available. Cluster munition roughly serve three purposes; firstly to defeat soft targets, i e personnel; secondly to defeat armoured of light armoured vehicles; and thirdly to contribute to the suppressive effect, i e to avoid enemy forces to use their weapons without inflicting too much damage upon them. The report seeks to quantify the effect of such munitions and to compare this effect with that of conventional weapons and more modern weapons. The report discusses in some detail how such weapons work and which effect they have against different targets. The fragment effect is the most important one. Other effects are the armour piercing effect, the blast effect, and the incendiary effect. Quantitative descriptions of such effects are usually only found in classified literature. However, this report is exclusively based on unclassified sources. The availability of such sources has been sufficient to get an adequate picture of the effect of such weapons.

  • Blast Effects Evaluation Using TNT Equivalent

    Blast Effects Evaluation Using TNT Equivalent

    50 Scientific Technical Review,Vol.LIX,No.3-4,2009 UDK: 662.1/4:541.42.6 COSATI: 19-01, 19-04 Blast Effects Evaluation Using TNT Equivalent Zoran Bajić, MSc (Eng)1) Jovica Bogdanov, MSc (Eng)1) Radun Jeremić, PhD (Eng)1) This paper shows blast parameters of high explosives commonly used in explosive ordnance of Serbian armed forces regarding TNT equivalents. Primary blast wave parameters, overpressure, impulse and positive phase duration are calculated using modified Sadovskiy equations and the modified K-B equation. TNT equivalents of the observed explosives are determined using thermochemical calculations based on BKW EOS parameters. The calculated blast wave parameters show significant influence of used explosives concerning the TNT equivalent. Key words: explosive materials, physics of explosion, blast wave, blast wave effect, thermochemical calculation, TNT equivalent, equation of state, Sadovskiy equations. Introduction (modified by the US DoD) for blast pressure and impulse FTER the detonation occurs, the ambient pressure determination using scaled distance is shown in eq.(4) [4]. A increases almost instantaneously and promptly begins 234 to decay, forming a nearly triangular overpressure pulse. PI,=++ exp( A B ln Z C (ln) Z + D (ln) Z + E (ln) Z ) (4) The peak pressure is called the peak positive overpressure. It represents the pressure seen at a point in space when the Where pressure is in kPa, impulse in Pa·s/kg1/3, Z is in shock wave is unimpeded in its motion. The duration of the m/kg1/3 and A, B, C, D and E empirical coefficients. positive overpressure is called the positive phase.
  • Units of Solubility

    Units of Solubility

    Units of solubility Continue Calculating the molyal saltiness of the compound in the water and the relative molyal saltiness of the compounds of the salted substance product (Ksp) is the ratio of concentrations in balance. The molar nozzle compound can be calculated directly from its product. Even though the solubility products of the two compounds are similar, their molar solubilities can be very different. Scientists use relative solubilities of compounds to separate or identify them. The product of the substance (Ksp) is the ratio of concentrations in balance. Molar solubility, which is directly related to the soluble product, is the number of moles soluble solution, which can dissolve per liter of solution before the solution becomes saturated. Once the solution is saturated, any additional solution is sucked out of the solution. Units of Molar (M), or mole liter-1 (mole / l). Calculating the Molar Solubility Link between molar solubility and solubility product means that one can be used to find the other. Illustration 1: Ksp for AgI is 8.5 x 10-17 at 25 degrees Celsius. What is molar solubility? (Let's - solubility compounds in water are usually defined as x in the ICE table.) Solution: Balanced Equation for Reaction: LatexAgI (s) left-right ag (aq) and I - aq)/latex Formula for Ksp: Ksp AgI-Ksp s2 8.5 x 10-17 where s concentration of each ion on balance. Now, solve for s: s2 - 8.5 x 10- 17 s . Example 2: Solubility products for cadmium carbonate (CdCO3) and silver carbonate (Ag2CO3) are almost exactly the same. Compare their molar solubilities in the water at 25 degrees Celsius.
  • Prohibited and Restricted Chemical List

    Prohibited and Restricted Chemical List

    School Emergency Response Plan and Management Guide Prohibited and Restricted Chemical List PROHIBITED AND RESTRICTED CHEMICAL LIST Introduction After incidents of laboratory chemical contamination at several schools, DCPS, The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and DC Fire and Emergency Management Services developed an aggressive program for chemical control to eliminate student and staff exposure to potential hazardous chemicals. Based upon this program, all principals are required to conduct a complete yearly inventory of all chemicals located at each school building to identify for the removal and disposal of any prohibited/banned chemicals. Prohibited chemicals are those that pose an inherent, immediate, and potentially life- threatening risk, injury, or impairment due to toxicity or other chemical properties to students, staff, or other occupants of the school. These chemicals are prohibited from use and/or storage at the school, and the school is prohibited from purchasing or accepting donations of such chemicals. Restricted chemicals are chemicals that are restricted by use and/or quantities. If restricted chemicals are present at the school, each storage location must be addressed in the school's written emergency plan. Also, plan maps must clearly denote the storage locations of these chemicals. Restricted chemicals—demonstration use only are a subclass in the Restricted chemicals list that are limited to instructor demonstration. Students may not participate in handling or preparation of restricted chemicals as part of a demonstration. If Restricted chemicals—demonstration use only are present at the school, each storage location must be addressed in the school's written emergency plan. Section 7: Appendices – October 2009 37 School Emergency Response Plan and Management Guide Prohibited and Restricted Chemical List Following is a table of chemicals that are Prohibited—banned, Restricted—academic curriculum use, and Restricted—demonstration use only.

    This document is scheduled to be published in the Federal Register on 12/28/2017 and available online at https://federalregister.gov/d/2017-28010, and on FDsys.gov (Billing Code: 4410-FY-P) DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives [Docket No. 2017R-19] Commerce in Explosives; 2017 Annual List of Explosive Materials AGENCY: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF); Department of Justice. ACTION: Notice of List of Explosive Materials. SUMMARY: Pursuant to Federal law, the Department of Justice must publish and revise at least annually in the Federal Register a list of explosives determined to be explosive materials. The list covers not only explosives, but also blasting agents and detonators, all of which are defined as “explosive materials.” This notice contains the 2017 Annual List of Explosive Materials, which remains unchanged from the 2016 Annual List of Explosives. DATES: The list becomes effective [INSERT DATE OF PUBLICATION IN THE FEDERAL REGISTER]: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION, CONTACT: William E. Frye Jr., Chief, Explosives Industry Programs Branch; Firearms and Explosives Industry Division; Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives; United States Department of Justice; 99 New York Avenue, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20226; (202) 648-7120. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Each material listed, as well as all mixtures containing any of these materials, constitute “explosive materials” under 18 U.S.C. 841(c). Materials constituting blasting agents are marked by an asterisk. While the list is comprehensive, it is not all-inclusive. The fact that an explosive material is not on the list does not mean that it is not within the coverage of the law if it otherwise meets the statutory definition in 18 U.S.C.
