ARA RMD Dynamics Testing Lab Personnel Vulnerability and Protection View our photo gallery for more information about our capabilities.

The Dynamics Testing Group at ARA in Littleton, CO focuses on human injury testing using specialized equipment including a ballistic chamber, high energy linear impactor, and a large diameter shock tube. Much of our experience lies in quantifing the the level of protection provided by the application of various types of personal protective equipment.

On 23 May 2011, Tim Walilko presented his recent work at the International Breacher Symposium hosted by the National Tactical Officer Association (NTOA). The focus of his briefing was the effect the structure and surrounds objects, such as other individuals participating in the operation, have on the explosive generated energies applied to each individual in the vicinity of the detonation.

We have multiple test ranges at which we can do large scale explosive testing consisting of more than 9000 lb net explosive weight. Many dangerous munitions can also undergo testing at these locations.

Our linear impactor is capable of performing repeatable high energy blunt impact testing.
