Nist Reference Material (rm) 8240/8250 Project – Standard Bullets and Casings
نویسندگان
چکیده
Standard bullets and casings are currently under development to support the National Integrated Ballistics Information Network (NIBIN) in the U.S. Based on a numerically controlled diamond turning technique, 20 RM 8240 standard bullets were fabricated in 2002. Test results show high repeatability and reproducibility for the bullet signatures on these RM bullets. Prototype standard casings were also manufactured using an electro-forming technique, and are currently under test. These RM bullets and casings are intended for measurement traceability and quality control for ballistics laboratories nationwide.

متن کاملDevelopment of Ballistics Identification – From Image Comparison to Topography Measurement in Surface Metrology
Fired bullets and ejected cartridge cases have unique ballistics signatures left by the firearm. By analyzing the ballistics signatures, forensic examiners can trace these bullets and cartridge cases to the firearm used in a crime scene. Current automated ballistics identification systems are primarily based on image comparisons using optical microscopy. The correlation accuracy depends on imag...

A number of food-matrix reference materials (RMs) are available from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and from Agriculture Canada through NIST. Most of these materials were originally value-assigned for their elemental composition (major, minor, and trace elements), but no additional nutritional information was provided. Two of the materials were certified for selected ...
