Random Gunfire Problems and Gunshot Detection Systems (NIJ RIB)
نویسنده
چکیده
Random gunfire problems are distinguishable from other types of shooting incidents such as urban sniper attacks, gang shootouts, domestic homicides, and revenge shootings because (1) random gunfire is strictly an outdoor activity; (2) it is not usually part of other criminal activity such as drug dealing, assaults, or robberies; and (3) random gunfire shooters do not fire their weapons to intentionally injure or kill people.

Echo correlation analysis and the acoustic evidence in the Kennedy assassination revisited.
A Dallas Police Department recording contemporaneous with the Kennedy assassination contains five impulsive sounds that have the acoustic waveform of Dealey Plaza gunfire. One of the sounds matches the echo pattern of a test shot fired from the Grassy Knoll. The shock wave precedence associated with this pattern is consistent with the muzzle velocity of a .30 calibre rifle. Criticism of the aco...
متن کاملA predictive model of the association between gene polymorphism and the risk of noise-induced hearing loss caused by gunfire noise.
BACKGROUND Noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is one of the common diseases in otology. In general, we assume that most people who are exposed to loud noise constantly, e.g., soldiers, will suffer from hearing loss. Hearing loss is related to the gene polymorphisms, with the Wolfram syndrome type 1 gene (T2500C), interleukin-4 receptor α chain (Q576R) and chloride channel-Kb (T481S) polymorphism...
متن کاملExperience Does Not Equal Expertise in Recognizing Infrequent Incoming Gunfire: Neural Markers for Experience and Task Expertise at Peak Behavioral Performance
For a soldier, decisions to use force can happen rapidly and sometimes lead to undesired consequences. In many of these situations, there is a rapid assessment by the shooter that recognizes a threat and responds to it with return fire. But the neural processes underlying these rapid decisions are largely unknown, especially amongst those with extensive weapons experience and expertise. In this...
متن کامل78 - Thoracic Trauma
The most common mechanism of blunt thoracic trauma is an MVC, followed by falls, assaults, and crush injuries. Compressive forces directly injure the thoracic cage and underlying viscera and result in rib fractures and pulmonary contusion. Deceleration produces traction on fixed structures such as the isthmus of the aorta and the carina and results in traumatic aortic and tracheobronchial injur...
متن کاملDeath due to accidentally self-inflicted gunshot wound.
A 37-year-old man, with the entrance gunshot wound on the front of the right leg several cm above the knee, was found dead at home in his bed. No other lesions were observed except a contusion ring around the wound that spread downward and to the right. On autopsy, the wound path was followed upward from the entrance wound (0.7 cm in diameter). The bullet went through the medial aspect of the q...
