DTIC AD0889245: Engineering Design Handbook. Ammunition Series - Fuzes

The Engineering Design Handbooks of the U.S. Army Materiel Command have evolved over a number of years for the purpose of making readily available basic information, technical data, and practical guides for the development of military equipment. While aimed primarily at U.S. Army materiel, the handbooks serve as authoritative references for needs of other branches of the Armed Services as well. The present handbook is one of a series on Fuzes. This handbook presents both theoretical and practical data pertaining to fuzes. Coverage includes initiation, arming, design, and tests of fuzes and their components. Both mechanical and electric fuze actions are treated. The fuzing of all conventional ammunition items is covered. Prepared as an aid to ammunition designers, this handbook should also be of benefit to scientists and engineers engaged in other basically related research and development programs or who have responsibility for the planning and interpretation of experiments and tests concerning the performance of ammunition or ammunition components.
