A novel blast wave mitigation device was investigated experimentally in this paper. The device consists of a piston-cylinder assembly. A shock wave is induced within the cylinder when a blast wave impacts on the piston. The shock wave propagates inside the device and is reflected repeatedly. The shock wave propagation process inside the device lengthens the duration of the force on the base of the device to several orders of magnitude of the duration of the blast wave, while it decreases the maximum pressure by several orders of magnitude. Two types of experiments were carried out to study the blast wave mitigation device. The first type of experiments was done with honeycomb structures protected by the blast wave mitigation device. Experimental results show that the device can adequately protect the honeycomb structure. A second type of experiments was done using a Hopkinson bar to measure the pressure transmitted through the blast wave mitigation device. The experimental results agree well with results from a theoretical model.

Abstract One part of universal tendencies that are connected with armament building now is orientated to creating new models of small arms, that have increased battle effectiveness. The grouping is one of the most important technical characterizations that increase battle effectiveness of small arms. In many cases, adding muzzle devices increases bullet dispersing. In order to avoid this, it is necessary that the grouping in these cases should be investigated. This article presents an experimental investigation on the influence of an additional mounted on barrel edge concentrated mass over the grouping of gunshot hits in single shooting.
