Feature tracking to estimate the velocity of air ejected from the temporary cavity during cranial gunshot wounding
نویسندگان
چکیده
Back-spattered bloodstain patterns are often important in investigations of cranial gunshot fatalities, particularly where there is doubt whether the death is suicide or homicide. Back-spatter is the projection of blood and tissue back toward the firearm (Davidson et al. 2012, Kunz et al. 2013), and the location of back-spatter on the victim’s body and clothes can yield important clues (an example is shown in Fig. 1).

Physical Mechanisms of Soft Tissue Injury from Penetrating Ballistic Impact
Most civilian nonfatal gunshot injuries and murders involve handguns. Gunshot wounds are often classified as being due to high-velocity or low-velocity projectiles, e.g. rifle or handgun rounds. However, this is a historical distinction, and there is overlap in energy that can be delivered to tissue by modern rifle and handgun rounds. Also, the same diameter (caliber) bullet can have different ...
متن کاملGunshot wounds: A review of ballistics related to penetrating trauma
Since the introduction of the term “wound ballistics”[1,2] indicating the study of the wounding mechanisms of missiles [3], extensive experimental research on this field has beenconductedby investigators with a military background [4-7]. In the context of wound ballistics, the term missile is used to denote various types of small projectiles, such as bullets and fragments, that have enough kine...

متن کاملSubarachnoid Pleural Fistula Due to Gunshot Wound
Subarachnoid pleural fistula (SPF) is an extremely rare complication that occurs after dural space and vertebral columns injuries. SPF is divided into two diagnoses based on the absence or presence of pneumocephalus and pneumorrachis. While pneumocephalus is defined as the presence of air the cranial cavity, if there is air in the spinal canal, this is defined as pneumorrhachis. In general, the...
متن کاملMoving Objects Tracking Using Statistical Models
Object detection plays an important role in successfulness of a wide range of applications that involve images as input data. In this paper we have presented a new approach for background modeling by nonconsecutive frames differencing. Direction and velocity of moving objects have been extracted in order to get an appropriate sequence of frames to perform frame subtraction. Stationary parts of ...
