  2. Firearm malfunction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firearm_malfunction

    Most modern firearms are designed to not be capable of firing when significantly out-of-battery. As such, a firearm that is out-of-battery typically cannot be fired, which is why this is a type of firearm malfunction. A dangerous situation can occur when a chambered round fires when the firearm is out-of-battery (called an out-of-battery ...

  3. Limp wristing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limp_wristing

    These jams can be easily dealt with by knocking the used brass out of the way with the side of the hand or closed fist. The other common result of limp wristing is a failure to return to battery: the slide will be moving too slowly to move the new cartridge fully into the chamber, so the slide will stop partially open.

  4. Failure of electronic components - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure_of_electronic...

    A sudden fail-open fault can cause multiple secondary failures if it is fast and the circuit contains an inductance; this causes large voltage spikes, which may exceed 500 volts. A broken metallisation on a chip may thus cause secondary overvoltage damage. [1] Thermal runaway can cause sudden failures including melting, fire or explosions.

  5. Out-of-battery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Out-of-battery

    Out-of-battery discharges almost always involve semi-automatic or fully-automatic firearms, but they are possible with manually operated firearms such as lever-actions and bolt-actions, yet extremely rare. Understanding and identifying out-of-battery conditions before they can result in an out-of-battery discharge is an important safety skill ...

  6. Ignition timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_timing

    Pressure in cylinder pattern in dependence on ignition timing: (a) - misfire, (b) too soon, (c) optimal, (d) too late. In a spark ignition internal combustion engine, ignition timing is the timing, relative to the current piston position and crankshaft angle, of the release of a spark in the combustion chamber near the end of the compression stroke.

  7. Battery leakage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_leakage

    Battery leakage is the escape of chemicals, such as electrolytes, within an electric battery due to generation of pathways to the outside environment caused by factory or design defects, excessive gas generation, or physical damage to the battery.

  8. Plug-in electric vehicle fire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plug-in_electric_vehicle_fire

    The causes of fires in EVs can be mainly divided into the following categories: spontaneous combustion during driving, fire during charging, fire during vehicle parking, fire after collision (traffic accident and chassis collision), water immersion of battery packs, external fire ignition, human factors, aging and short-circuit of components ...

  9. Cutoff voltage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutoff_voltage

    The cut-off voltage is different from one battery to the other and it is highly dependent on the type of battery and the kind of service in which the battery is used. When testing the capacity of a NiMH or NiCd battery a cut-off voltage of 1.0 V per cell is normally used, whereas 0.9 V is normally used as the cut-off voltage of an alkaline cell ...
