A fully synthetic lung model for wound-ballistic experiments − first results

Due to the complexity of bullet-tissue interaction, the field of wound-ballistics still strongly relies on experiments in order to understand the injuring capacity of a certain ammunition type, e.g. the wound profile. The wound profile refers to the penetration depth, the bullet deformation/fragmentation, the diameter of the permanent and the temporary wound cavity.
