β¦ Synopsis
The exact solution to the long-rod penetration equations is revisited, in search of improvements to the solution efficiency, while simultaneously enhancing the understanding of the physical parameters that drive the solution. Substantial improvements are offered in these areas. The presentation of the solution is simplified in a way that more tightly unifies the special-and general-case solutions to the problem. Added computational efficiencies are obtained by expressing the general-case solution for penetration and implicit time in terms of a series of Bessel functions. Other extensions and efficiencies are addressed, as well.

No exact solution for the free energy of electrostatic interaction for a charged sphere and rod geometry in an electrolyte solution has yet been proposed. This geometry is interesting because it can be applied to describe macromolecules interacting with a random fiber-matrix for modeling of hindered
The paper deals with theoretical considerations on the conception and optimization of long-rod penetrators with regard to bending strain and penetration efficiency. In a first step we describe a method allowing to design long penetrators in such a manner that given values of bending stress and defle
