Ballistic Performance of Hybrid Armor with Ceramic Inserts and Polymeric Matrix for Different Threat Levels (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Ceramic materials due to their high compressive strength and hardness have been one of prime candidates in armor design in particular when high level threads (impact velocity above 600m/s) are involved. The aim of this work is to investigate ballistic impact resistance potential for a target plate with novel ceramic inserts as against ceramic tiles. Two size 98% alumina (AL2O3) base ceramic i...
متن کاملDevelopment and Validation of a Rapid Derivative Spectrophotometric Method for Determination of Tropicamide in Eye Drops
Tropicamide is an antimuscarinic agent used as eye drops for refractive examinations. The aim of this study was to develop a simple and suitable analytical method for determination of tropicamide in eye drops in the presence of excipients. A zero-crossing third and fourth derivative spectrophotometric method was described for determination of tropicamide in eye drops. The measurements wer...

متن کاملDevelopment of an Accommodation-Dependent Eye Model and Studying the Effects of Accommodation on Electron and Proton Dose Conversion Coefficients
Introduction International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) has provided a comprehensive discussion on threshold dose for radiation-induced cataract in ICRP publication 116. Accordingly, various parts of the eye lens have different radio-sensitivities. Recently, some studies have been performed to develop a realistic eye model with the aim of providing accurate estimation of fluence...
