  • Effect of heat treatment on small scale fragmentation of aluminium alloy 
    Edwards, M. R.; Deal, C (Maney Publishing, 2011-01-31)
    Small scale explosions, using a detonator, of 7075 aluminium alloy cylinders, 15-100 mm outside diameter, were carried out to investigate the effects of heat treatment on fragmentation. This was the finest for the strongest ...
  • Enhanced radiopacity austenitic stainless steel foil 
    Craig, C. H. (Cranfield UniversityPostgraduate Medical School, Department of Materials and Medical Sciences, 2007-12-12)
    Austenitic stainless steel designed for implant applications is used to fabricate balloon expandable coronary stents. The alloy was not designed for this purpose but has been found to work well except for relatively low ...
  • Luders bands in RPV Steel 
    Johnson, D. H. (2013-10-08)
    The R6 procedure is used for the prevention and prediction of crack behaviour and other defects in the reactor pressure vessel(RPV). The RPV material is an upper-bainitic, low alloy steel structure, which deforms inhomogeneously ...
  • The Mechanical and Ballistic Properties of Polycarbonate 
    Edwards, M. R.; Waterfall, H. (2008-05-27)
    Polycarbonate is commonly used as the material of riot shields. Firings of 8.3 g steel ball bearings at velocities of 23-98 ms-1 produced damage in the form of dents. Subsequent tensile testing showed a small drop in ...
  • Modelling shocks using molecular dynamics 
    Park, N. (2011-09-07)
    The study of shocks in solid, crystalline metals has been ongoing since the early works of Rankine and Hugoniot in the latter half of the 19th century. However, the understanding of the behaviour of such materials under ...
  • Penetration of a glass-faced transparent elastomeric resin by a lead-antimony- cored bullet 
    Hazell, P. J.; Edwards, M. R.; Longstaff, H.; Erskine, J. (Elsevier Science B.V., Amsterdam., 2009-12-31)
    The penetration of the lead antimony-cored 7.62 mm × 51 mm bullet into a glass- faced polyurethane elastomeric polymer resin has been studied. The resulting craters in the resin contained elongated bullet core material ...
  • Safety cases and safety: safety case elicitation tool for light unmanned air vehicles 
    Harries, R. (2010-10-12)
  • Stab resistant body armour 
    Horsfall, Ian (Cranfield University, 2000-03)
    There is now a widely accepted need for stab resistant body armour for the police in the UK. However, very little research has been done on knife resistant systems and the penetration mechanics of sharp projectiles are ...
