For this reason, tools are being developed to assist staff responsible for the operation of CI facilities. One interesting example of this type of tool is interactive training simulations implemented in virtual reality. This type of simulation allows procedures to be practised in situations where the continuity of the CI facility is threatened, and the procedures to be followed after a CI facility failure. This paper presents the possibilities of interacting with the virtual environment during a training simulation. Preliminary results are also discussed. Concerning research into the usability of such a training tool, the acceptance of the technology used etc.","PeriodicalId":52820,"journal":{"name":"Problemy Mechatroniki","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43495723","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the considered system, a mathematical model of phenomena inside a combustion chamber, a light gas filled chamber, and a barrel was worked out.

On the basis of the results of the accomplished calculations, influence of system structural parameters on the maximum pressure inside a compression chamber and a muzzle velocity of a projectile has been analysed. The final results of this work were used for development of the first in Poland a laboratory station with two-stage light gas gun intended for experimental investigation in the field of terminal ballistics of objects moving at hypersonic velocities.","PeriodicalId":52820,"journal":{"name":"Problemy Mechatroniki","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47079627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Considered values of a gel mass content were equal to 10, 12, and 14%. Assumed parameters were determined on the material calibration stage conducted with steel balls with a diameter of 4.5 mm. The most significant influence of a gel content on mechanical properties of specimens were observed for a share of 10% and 12%.
