The protection capability of dual flying plates against a yawed long rod of enhanced L/D is evaluated numerically, where L is the length and D is the diameter of the rod. This study is motivated by the fact that the protection performance of dual plate system is governed by the extent of interaction
The paper summarizes a series of two-dimensional numerical simulations which were performed to study the effects of material properties on the terminal ballistics of long-rod penetrators. Our focus was on the properties of the rod material, unlike recent works which concentrated on a target's proper
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
