In this study, transverse and longitudinal accelerations of a full caliber-shell shot by a medium-caliber gun were measured directly during the internal ballistic (IB) phase. The data were transmitted outside the tube by modulation of LASER light emission and recoded into acceleration values. The results were analyzed through the numerical simulation of the response of the tube traversed by the projectile and with the internal-ballistic data providing the longitudinal projectile acceleration. The analysis reveals that the in-bore projectile movements are both influenced by the tube geometry (curvature and straightness defects) and by the tube response during the internal ballistic phase. However, in this work, the tube response appeared to be of greater influence on the projectile dynamics than the tube initial static geometry. Results provide basis for further calibration studies.

In order to investigate the influence of the erosion and wear on artillery ballistic performance, artillery ballistic model was founded, and graphic integration was used for providing the calculation of internal ballistic parameters. Base on this method, the influence of the erosion and wear on artillery internal ballistic performance was analyzed with the help of numerical simulation.

Laser-localized structures have been observed in several experiments based on broad-area semiconductor lasers. They appear as bounded regions of laser light emission which can exist independently of each other and are expected to be commuted via external optical perturbations. In this work, we perform a statistical analysis of time-resolved commutation experiments in a system of coupled lasers and show the role of wavelength, polarization and pulse energy in the switching process. Furthermore, we also analyse the response of the system outside of the stability region of laser-localized states in search of an excitable response. We observe not only a threshold separating two types of responses, but also a strong variability in the system's trajectory when returning to the initial stable fixed point.

This paper deals with shear force and bending moment identification in a beam from measured displacement. The proposed approach, using the weak form of the equation of motion, is based on the extraction of shear force or bending moment from integral equation and choice of test functions, associated to each boundary quantity of interest. After the theorical description, numerical simulation results are shown in order to clarify limits of the method and to stress its self-regularization. Two experimentations are described, showing very good accuracy of shear force and bending moment reconstruction in comparison with direct measurements.

We study the effect of a decrease in the magnitude of the coherence signal in high-frequency spatial spectrum for a defocused object image in transmission digital holographic microscopy with quasimonochromatic partially spatially coherent illumination. A theoretical description and results of the numerical simulation of the effect for a point scattering object are presented. The effect is experimentally studied by illuminating layered quasi-point scatterers with partially spatially coherent laser light obtained using a moving scatterer. The comparison of the experimental and theorybased numerical results shows them to be in good agreement.
