In order to shed some light on the response of explosives to the attack of smalldiameter projectiles such as shaped charge jets, we conducted a computational study using the 2DE code and the Forest Fire explosive initiation model. Simulations of copper-jet attack against Composition B were made in o

## Abstract This paper describes initiation tests on cast TNT/RDX (35/65) explosive charges applying shaped charge jets with test setโups on which the HE charge was arranged either in contact to a 50โmm thick barrier or after a 100โmm thick barrier in a 15โmm air gap. A variety of materials was att
## Abstract It is shown, that the portion of a shaped charge jet that emerges from explosive reactive armor is longer or at least less disturbed if the jet tip velocity can be raised. Generally, the residual jet length largely depends on the ratio of the reaction time of the armor and the standoff
