Development of support system for identification of bullet-induced glass fractures

Forensic Scientist in the field of glass analyses observed that combination of firearms and ammunitions produced unique pattern on glass fractures. Experienced forensic investigator could identify the characteristics of the firearms and ammunitions based on the fractures. Normally, analysis of the g...
