Короткий опис (реферат):
The practical work of forensic experts directly depends on a solid theoretical foundation, which is provided by scientists working in the field. One such field is forensic ballistics, which is based on the results of experiments, when trying to reproduce the various circumstances of the shot by conducting a series of shots. However, an incorrectly set experiment can distort the obtained data and, as a consequence, the work of practical experts. Therefore, the aim of our study was to search for new data on the organization of ballistic research and, in particular, the possibilities of conducting ballistic research using the complex “clothing+non-biological simulator of the human body” by analyzing literature sources. The results of the analysis showed that there is heterogeneity in the organization of ballistic research in different countries. In addition, the results of some studies indicate that with uniform shots separately into clothing and clothing adjacent to the simulator of the human body, there are different data on its gunshot damage. Thus, there is a need to revise the mechanism of ballistic experiments, namely the creation of a unified scheme that would eliminate the distortion of data in the experiment. The team of authors provides the most important recommendations for improving the organization of ballistic experiments.
