In one aspect, the present disclosure is directed to a system for protecting a vehicle from a mine. Upon detonation the mine may yield ejecta having an expected trajectory. The system has a first layer of material disposed outside of an underbody of a hull of the vehicle. The first layer includes a base disposed in a direction substantially parallel to the underbody and a protrusion that narrows as it extends away from the base in a direction opposing the expected ejecta trajectory. The system also has a second layer including a material having a shock wave transmission velocity that is higher than a shock wave transmission velocity of the material of the first layer. The system further has an exterior layer substantially covering the first and second layers, and the exterior layer has an exterior surface that faces away from the underbody and toward the expected ejecta trajectory.

The present invention discloses a system, device and method for providing an exhaust assembly adapted for use with a mass ejection drive system to produce rotational torque about the principle axis of the drive system. Representative features generally include a vane suitably configured to at least partially engage a mass ejecta stream to apply a net rotational torque about the principal axis of the drive system, and a tailfin coupled to the at least one vane. The tailfin is configured to selectively deploy from an at least partially stowed position in order to decrease the application of net rotational torque about the principal axis of the drive system.

An elongate ballistic protection apparatus is described and claimed herein which has minimal weight and maximum flexibility to conform to the most contorted and undulating ground surfaces. In use, it is immediately positioned below a military vehicle to protect the crew compartment positioned above said apparatus by extending transversely between the propulsive means and laterally along the direction of travel for the vehicle. The apparatus may detonate mines while operated by driven engagement over mine bearing terrains, but it will do so in a manner sufficient to defeat them without inducing unacceptable damages to either the vehicle or crew. Thereby, this invention provides a means to effectively disrupt the firing sequence of the explosive charges in these mines by contact with my minimal weight roller link chain. Beneficially, the blast gasses and ejecta of the mine simply vents through the open areas of my chain. This is a substantial improvement over devices having solid configurations or geometries.

A mass separation device includes a transparent substrate and a plurality of small diameter cylindrically shaped orifices in the transparent substrate. The small diameter cylindrically shaped orifices include smooth wall surfaces and are not tapered. The small diameter cylindrically shaped orifices are drilled by photoacoustic compression and are clean and sharp and do not have ejecta mounds surrounding the orifice on the surface of the transparent substrate. The small diameter cylindrically shaped orifices in said transparent substrate are less than or equal to 1 μm in diameter. The transparent substrate is glass and preferably is borosilicate glass.

The invention provides a novel energetic base material prepared from a porous material and a preparation method thereof. The novel energetic base material and the preparation method thereof solve the problem that a closure material prepared in China at present has the defects of a large ejecta size, long action time and a complicated structure.
