The penetration resistance of alumina was found to decrease with velocity for armor-piercing bullets. However, it was relatively independent of velocity for rods and fragment-siaulating projectiles. These results are explained in terms of compressive yielding caused by high velocity pointed projec

An analytical model for the cratering process in a metal target due to high-velocity penetration of a jacketed rod has been developed. The jacketed rod consists of a central high-density core surrounded by a low-density jacket. The analysis is based on the observation that two mechanisms are involve

We report a direct observation of the "streamline" reversal of eroded rod material proposed by Allen and Rogers in 196 1 [ 11. Allen and Rogers suggested that the "turning" of highvelocity long-rod penetrator material at the target interface could be viewed as a reversal of the direction of a "strea

It has been known for several years that glass is a relatively effective armor against shaped charge jets [ 11 even though its performance against conventional long-rod projectiles is mediocre. Some of the authors have earlier postulated that this effect is due at least in part to an increase of the
