  1. Ballistic stretching

    Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Noreferences date September 2008 Ballistic stretching is a form of passive stretching or dynamic stretching in a bouncing motion. Ballistic stretches force the Limb anatomy limb into an extended range of motion when the muscle has not relaxed enough to enter it. It involves fast bouncing movements where a double bounce is performed at the end range of movement. Ballistic stretching should only be used by athletes who know their own limitations and with supervision by their trainer. Ballistic stretching has been found to be hazardous towards the body. It can injure vital muscles and nerves with the sharp jerking movements. It is even possible for tissue to be ripped off the bone. See also Stretching .

The advantage of the ballistic parachute over a conventional parachute is that it ejects the parachute canopy causing it to open rapidly, this makes it ideal for attaching to small aircraft , hang glider s and microlight s where an emergency situation may occur in close proximity to the ground.

  1. Ballistic photon

    Ballistic photons are the light photon s that travel through a scattering turbidity turbid optical medium medium in a straight line. Also known as ballistic light . If laser pulses are sent through a turbid medium such as fog or tissue biology body tissue , most of the photons are either randomly scattered or absorbed. However, across short distances, a few photons pass through the scattering medium in straight lines. These coherent photons are referred to as ballistic photons. Photons that are slightly scattered, retaining some degree of coherence physics coherence , are referred to as snake photons. If efficiently detected, there are many applications for ballistic photons especially in coherent high resolution medical imaging systems. Ballistic scanners using ultrafast time gates and optical coherence tomography OCT using the interferometry principle are just two of the popular imaging systems that rely on ballistic photon detection to create diffraction limited system diffraction limited images. Due to the exponential reduction with respect to distance of ballistic photons in a scattering medium, often image processing techniques are applied to the raw captured ballistic images, to reconstruct high quality ones.

Ballistic nylon was originally developed by the DuPont corporation as a material for flak jacket s to be worn by World War II airmen. The term ballistic nylon takes its name from the fact that it was intended to protect its wearers from flying debris and Fragmentation weaponry fragmentation caused by bullet or Shell projectile artillery shell impacts. It was not an effective defense against most pistol or rifle rounds, let alone the heavy 20mm and 30mm autocannons Axis fighters were often armed with. For this application, ballistic nylon has been replaced by Kevlar and other, more effective, Bulletproof vest bullet resistant fabrics. Modern applications of ballistic nylon include luggage, caving cave packs, tool belts, police duty belt s, watchstraps, motorcycle jackets, and skin on frame kayaks.

  1. Ballistic stroke

    Unreferenced date December 2009 In handwriting research, the concept of stroke is used in various ways. In engineering and computer science, there is a tendency to use the term stroke for a single connected component of ink in handwriting recognition Off line recognition Off line handwriting recognition or a complete pen down trace in handwriting recognition On line recognition on line handwriting recognition . Thus, such stroke may be a complete character or a part of a character. However, in this definition, a complete word written as connected cursive script should also be called a stroke. This is in conflict with the suggested unitary nature of stroke as a relatively simple shape. In the research field of handwriting motor control, the term ballistic stroke is used. It is defined as the trajectory segment between two consecutive minima in the absolute velocity of the pen tip. The time delay between the cortical brain command and a muscle contraction is so large that the 100 millisecond ballistic strokes need to be planned in advance by the brain, as feedback by hand eye coordination requires a much slower movement than is the case in the normal handwriting process.

Image Grassot Fluxmeter constant determination.svg thumb 250px right Grassot fluxmeter calibration arrangement using a standard mutual inductor and a known quantity of electrical discharge. Measuring setup is similar. A ballistic galvanometer is a type of mirror galvanometer . Unlike a current measuring galvanometer, the moving part has a large moment of inertia , thus giving it a long oscillation period. It is really an integrator measuring the quantity of Electric charge charge discharged through it. It can be either of the moving coil or moving magnet type. Before first use the ballistic constant of the galvanometer must be determined. This is usually done by connecting to the galvanometer a known capacitor , charged to a known voltage and recording the deflection. The constant K is calculated from the capacitance C, the voltage V and the deflection d math K CV d math where K is expressed in coulomb s per centimeter. In operation the unknown quantity of charge Q in coulombs is simply math Q kd math . Grassot Fluxmeter An interesting form of ballistic galvanometer is the Grassot fluxmeter. In order to operate correctly, the discharge time through the regular ballistic galvanometer must be shorter than the period of oscillation. For some applications, especially those involving inductors, this condition cannot be met. The Grassot fluxmeter solves this. Its construction is similar to that of a ballistic galvanometer, but its coil is suspended without any restoring forces in the suspension thread or in the current leads. The core bobbin of the coil is of a non conductive material. When an electric charge is connected to the instrument, the coil starts moving in the magnetic field of the galvanometer s magnet, generating an opposing e.m.f. and coming ...   more details
