Bullet impacts in building stone excavate approximately conical craters, with dimensions that are controlled by target material (2022)
Journal Article
Campbell, O., Blenkinsop, T., Gilbert, O., & Mol, L. (2022). Bullet impacts in building stone excavate approximately conical craters, with dimensions that are controlled by target material. Scientific Reports, 12(1), 17634. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-22624-z

Bullet impacts are a ubiquitous form of damage to the built environment resulting from armed conflicts. Bullet impacts into stone buildings result in surficial cratering, fracturing, and changes to material properties, such as permeability and surfac...

Surface damage from perpendicular and oblique bullet impacts in stone (2022)
Journal Article
Campbell, O., Blenkinsop, T., Gilbert, O., & Mol, L. (2022). Surface damage from perpendicular and oblique bullet impacts in stone. Royal Society Open Science, 9(7), 220029. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsos.220029

Controlled experiments were conducted to investigate the surface damage caused by perpendicular and oblique impacts of bullets into sandstone and limestone targets. Individual bullets fired in conditions simulating modern rifles at typical combat dis... Read More about Surface damage from perpendicular and oblique bullet impacts in stone.
