Experimental analysis of 7.62 mm hydrodynamic ram in containers

TL;DR: In this paper, two hydraulic ram events induced by a 7.62mm bullet shot in very different containers were observed throughout their various steps until the final collapse of the generated cavity, in order to study the nature of HRAM, the influence of the containers geometry, and measure original dynamic data for numerical modelling developments and validation.

Numerical analysis of CFRP fluid-filled tubes subjected to high-velocity impact

TL;DR: In this paper, the Coupled Eulerian Lagrangian (CEL) approach is used to simulate the fluid-structure interaction, and several numerical impacts at different initial projectile velocities are performed to study its influence in the HRAM phenomenon.

Viscosity of aqueous solutions of poly(ethylene glycol)s at 298.15 K

TL;DR: In this article, the viscosities of aqueous solutions of some poly(ethylene glycol)s (PEGs) with nominal molecular weights ranging from 300 to 35,000 g mol−1 were determined up to a concentration of 0.3 g cm−3 at 298.15 K. The viscosity coefficients B were evaluated and hence the partial molar Gibbs free energy of activation of viscous flow of solute at infinite dilution was calculated and interpreted in terms of the relative effects of the solute on the ground and transition state solvent.
