Terminal Ballistics

Rating
Format
Paperback, 359 pages
Published
Singapore, 1 March 2018

This book comprehensively discusses

essential aspects of terminal ballistics, combining experimental data,

numerical simulations and analytical modeling. Employing a unique approach to

numerical simulations as a measure of sensitivity for the major physical

parameters, the new edition also includes the following features: new figures

to better illustrate the problems discussed; improved explanations for the

equation of state of a solid and for the cavity expansion process; new data

concerning the Kolsky bar test; and a discussion of analytical modeling for the

hole diameter in a thin metallic plate impacted by a shaped charge jet. The

section on thick concrete targets penetrated by rigid projectiles has now been

expanded to include the latest findings, and two new sections have been added:

one on a novel approach to the perforation of thin concrete slabs, and one on

testing the failure of thin metallic plates using a hydrodynamic ram.



Experimental Techniques.- Material Models for Numerical Simulations.-Rigid Penetrators.- Plate Perforation.- Eroding Penetrators.- Defeat by High Strength Targets.- Asymmetric Interactions.
