Environmental impact of the explosion of the Nord Stream pipelines.

Armed conflicts have, in addition to severe impacts on human lives and infrastructure, also impacts on the environment, which needs to be assessed and documented. On September the 26th 2022, unknown perpetrators deliberately ruptured the two gas pipelines Nord Stream 1 and 2 with four coordinated explosions near a major chemical munition dump site near the Danish island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea. While the massive release of natural gas into atmosphere raised serious concerns concerning the contribution to climate change-this paper assesses the overlooked direct impact of the explosions on the marine ecosystem.

Three-Dimensional Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics Modeling and Experimental Analysis of the Ballistic Performance of Steel-Based FML Targets.

In this paper, shields made of 1.3964 stainless steel bonded to a fiber laminate were subjected to ballistic impact response of 7.62 × 51 mm ŁPS (light projectile with a lead core) projectiles.

The Use of Aluminium Alloy after High Plastic Deformation for Joining Riveted Structures.

This paper presents the results of a static and dynamic tensile test of an Al7.5Mg aluminium alloy taken from round bars made in the technology of hydrostatic extrusion. It is planned to use the Al7.

Material Properties of HY 80 Steel after 55 Years of Operation for FEM Applications.

The paper presents the results of testing the properties of HY 80 steel from the hull of a Kobben class 207 submarine after 60 years of operation in extreme sea conditions. Steels from the HY family in the post-war period were used to build American and German submarines. For the obtained fragment of steel from the hull of the Polish submarine ORP Jastrząb (ORP-Boat of the Republic of Poland), static tensile tests were performed on an MTS testing machine.

Small Caliber Bulletproof Test of Warships' Hulls.

The article presents the characteristics of 1.3964 steel and the results of firing a 7.62 mm projectile with a steel core.
