The Department of Weapon Systems and Ballistics of the Royal Military Academy is proud to announce that it will be hosting the 33rd International Symposium on Ballistics (33ISB) in the city of Bruges, Belgium. The 33ISB is the prime international scientific event in the field of ballistics, traditionally covering the following topics:

·      Exterior ballistics

·      Interior ballistics

·      Terminal ballistics

·      Explosion and warhead mechanics

·      Launch dynamics

·      Vulnerability and survivability

Next to this, the 33ISB also encourages other papers and presentations on emerging Technologies, including directed energy, hypersonics, and other new technologies related to ballistics.

Next to offering the opportunity to present novel research in the field of ballistics, the 33ISB will also be an excellent opportunity to meet researchers and professionals working in the field of ballistics from all over the world. Networking with other ISB participants will be greatly encouraged during the coffee and lunch breaks, as during the social events. Additionally, a special DIY touristic program has been prepared for all participants to the Symposium and their companions.

The Department of Weapon Systems and Ballistics is looking forward to giving you a warm welcome at the next International Symposium in Bruges!
