This proposal will investigate body armor systems to the effects of burst fire. In Phase I, the team of researchers will investigate the spatial distribution of impacts of common burst fire capable rifles, demonstrate a statistical analysis technique, and demonstrate a ballistic model approach while applying this research to a surrogate body armor solution. The program will begin with an analysi ...

ENIG, in collaboration with SRI, proposes to develop a modeling methodology with predictive and inferential capabilities to address the challenges of designing body armor to resist realistic multiple impacts from burst fire events. Our toolkit will provide an end-to-end modeling capability, grounded in the statistics of realistic impacts from small-arms fire, which would address the final material ...

Complex wounds including traumatic, chemical, chronic or surgical wounds present a significant challenge to care givers. Wound healing, being a complex and multifaceted process, differs significantly based on the type of wound and the underlining health of the patient. It is well established that factors like impaired perfusion, infection, existence of metabolic disorders such as diabetes, bad nut ...
