✦ Synopsis


A series of 2-D numerical simulations of the bulging of passive cassettes, penetrated by shaped charge jets, is described. The purpose of these simulations was to determine the factors affecting the speed of the bulging process in order to be able to design more efficient cassettes. Physical and geometrical parameters, of the different cassette constituents, were varied systematically. These included strengths, elastic moduli, thicknesses and densities of the materials involved.
