Material impact studies of a ricochet phenomena
High-speed flash X-ray cinematography catpures ricochet phenomena at 820 m/s
A bullet traveling 820 m/s impacts an inclined aramid composite plate. 6 X-ray images capture the event with a 50 microsecond time interval between them.
A ricochet phenomena under ballistic impact of a projectile traveling 820 m/s is captured with an X-ray image frame rate of 20,000 fps and an inter-frame time of 50 microseconds. The exposure time for each image is 1 microsecond.
These images were captured by Norbert Faderl and Marvin Becker at the French-German Research Institute of Saint Louis using the setup described in Proc. of SPIE 10999(2019)10990L-1 containing a Scandiflash MAT300 flash X-ray system.
Researching dynamics?
Sometimes you only get one chance – make it count.About Scandiflash
For over 50 years, Scandiflash has been pioneering flash X-ray technology to help scientists and researchers around the globe to see the nearly impossible. Scandiflash Flash X-Ray Systems generate extremely short pulses used to capture dynamics in the harshest of conditions, ranging from indoor lab setups to outdoor large-scale firing ranges. The systems are modular and can be tailored to meet your requirements for number of pulses and peak energy conditions.
