Perforation of AA5083-H116 aluminium plates with conical-nose steel projectiles : Calculations

TL;DR: In this article, an analytical perforation model based on the cylindrical cavity expansion theory has been reformulated and used to calculate the ballistic perfation resistance of the aluminium plates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Penetration of 6061-T6511 aluminum targets by ogive-nose steel projectiles with striking velocities between 0.5 and 3.0 km/s

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed a series of depth-of-penetration experiments using 7.11mm-diameter, 71.12-mm-long, ogive-nose steel projectiles and 254mm-Diameter, 6061-T6511 aluminum targets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of strain hardening and strain-rate sensitivity on the penetration of aluminum targets with spherical-nosed rods

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented closed-form penetration equations for rigid, spherical-nosed rods that penetrate 6061-T651 aluminum targets using the spherical cavity-expansion approximation and constitutive equations for the target that include strain hardening and strain-rate sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Perforation of aluminum plates with ogive-nose steel rods at normal and oblique impacts

TL;DR: In this paper, perforation experiments were conducted with 26.3 mm thick, 6061-T651 aluminum plates and 12.9 mm diameter, 88.9mm long, 4340 R c = 44 ogive-nose steel rods.
Journal ArticleDOI

Penetration into low-strength (23MPa) concrete: target characterization and simulations

TL;DR: In this article, a combined experimental, analytical, and computational research and development program investigates the penetration of steel projectiles into low-strength concrete using a geomaterial constitutive model.
