Hi,
I'm trying to select a thesis based on firearms and am thinking of doing an acoustics based topic, namely, something how the harmonics of the barrel during firing affects accuracy, and how to reduce this effect (any variation of this really). The problem is that there isn't much information dedicated directly on this topic (so far only a few websites and at most a page of information on websites), so I'm wondering if anyone knew of any extensive resources in which I'm assured to not run into a dead end.
The next problem is related to what type of approach I should use to actually do this considering it would have to be experimentally testable. A good thesis generally has a good mixture of experimental and computational analysis. So I need suggestions on how to vary the topic to accommodate something that is actually practical for me to complete. For example, I might have to be able to fire the weapon and show a change in precision and accuracy for the experimental side. In short, how will I obtain results?
Lastly, I'm open to changing the topic provided it's still based on firearms. The reason for this is that I've been working for a company that develops the technology (so I have a few resources at my disposal) and am thinking of this as a career. So any suggestions on topics, or answers to the above questions would be highly appreciated.
Regards.
