abstract="Bullet ricochet is defined as the deflection of a bullet from its course, while maintaining its integrity, as a result of impact on a target of sufficient solidarity. Jauhari (1, 2, 3) was the first to undertake a systematic experimental study of the phenomenon of bullet ricochet by firing low velocity handgun cartridges on targets of such diverse nature as wood, plastics, metal plates, glass, and brick. These experimental studies, apart from providing useful bullet ricochet data, suggested guidelines for building a mathematical model. In the present paper a mathematical model for bullet ricochet has been proposed. The experimental data collected earlier has been interpreted in the light of this model and experiments have been suggested to determine the values of unknown parameters involved in the equations.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
