The development of explosive weaponry over the last ∼150 years has seen a transition from ballistics (e.g., gunshots) to explosives (e.g., improvised explosive devices, mortars, rocket-propelled grenades and landmines) as the predominant mechanism of injury with the latter increasing the odds of large traumatic wounds in multiple areas.
Rapid extratropical cyclone development, called explosive cyclogenesis, is often associated with major winter storms and occurs when surface pressure falls by more than about 24 millibars per day.
It's no secret that it is a tricky time for large arts institutions, as it is for many other large institutions, like newspapers and publishing companies and record labels, in this age of technological development and explosive growth of leisure-time options.
The development of explosive bullets, fitted to Allied fighters from 1916, however, led to the destruction of what Winston Churchill had mocked as "enormous bladders of combustible and explosive gas".
Fainshtein and Chernova [11] have investigated the high power electromagnetic radiation from the development of explosive and high-frequency instabilities in a system consisting of a relativistic ion beam and a nonisothermal plasma.
The development of explosive harpoons and steam-powered whaling ships in the late nineteenth century brought previously unobtainable large whales within reach of commercial whalers.
The ironclad age saw the development of explosive torpedoes as naval weapons, which helped complicate the design and tactics of ironclad fleets.
In 1944 he moved to the Manhattan Project's Los Alamos Laboratory in New Mexico, where he worked with George Kistiakowsky on the development of explosive lenses required to detonate the implosion-type nuclear weapon.
During World War II, Kistiakowsky was the head of the National Defense Research Committee NDRCC) section responsible for the development of explosives, and the technical director of the Explosives Research Laboratory (ERL), where he oversaw the development of new explosives, including RDX and HMX.
There are also institutes in Maharashtra for research and development in explosives, armament technology, vehicle research, and naval, chemical, and metallurgical laboratories.
