  2. TS-50 mine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TS-50_mine

    VS-50 mine which looks very similar to the TS-50. The primary visual difference is that the VS-50 usually features a black rubber pressure plate (TS-50's pressure plate is usually body colored, and is stamped TS-50) but the key identifier is the horizontal indexing tabs off the vertical fins visible in the left and far right side of the mine in the picture.

    Minecraft: An ancient fireproof alloy made from gold and netherite scraps, which are smelted from ancient debris found in the game's hellish Nether dimension. When combined with diamond equipment, the metal creates the game's strongest weapons and armor. [53] [54] Nth Metal DC Comics: Fictional alloy; described as a heavy isotope, 676 Fe. [55]

  4. Blast resistant mine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blast_resistant_mine

    A soldier examines two inverted VS-1.6 blast-resistant anti-tank landmines. Cut-away view of a VS-MK2 blast-resistant anti-personnel mine. A blast resistant mine is a landmine (intended for anti-tank or anti-personnel purposes) with a fuze which is designed to be insensitive to the shock wave from a nearby explosion.

  5. Anti-personnel mine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-personnel_mine

    Sand-colored VS-50 mine intended for use in desert environments (shown beside a wristwatch, for scale). An anti-personnel mine or anti-personnel landmine (APL) is a form of mine designed for use against humans, as opposed to an anti-tank mine, which target vehicles. [1]

  6. Effects of nuclear explosions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_nuclear_explosions

    The range for blast effects increases with the explosive yield of the weapon and also depends on the burst altitude. Contrary to what might be expected from geometry, the blast range is not maximal for surface or low altitude blasts but increases with altitude up to an "optimum burst altitude" and then decreases rapidly for higher altitudes.

  7. PMN mine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PMN_mine

    Similarly, the PMN-4 is almost certainly a blast resistant mine due to the design of the flower-shaped pressure "spider" under the pressure-plate. [3] Cross-sectional diagrams of the PMN-4 showing its components support the view that the PMN-4 is a more sophisticated design than the PMN-2. [ 4 ]

  8. Slag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slag

    Granulated blast furnace slag is used in the manufacture of high-performance concretes, especially those used in the construction of bridges and coastal features, where its low permeability and greater resistance to chlorides and sulfates can help to reduce corrosive action and deterioration of the structure.

  9. VS-N fuzed mines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VS-N_fuzed_mines

    The VS-2.2, VS-3.6 and SH-55 are Italian circular plastic cased anti-tank blast mines that use the VS-N series fuze. They have very few metal components and are resistant to overpressure and shock. The VS-2.2 and VS-3.6 can also be deployed from helicopters. It was produced by Valsella Meccanotecnica and Singapore, but production has ceased ...
