We discuss the depth of cavities and craters caused by hypervelocity impacts as a function of impact parameters such as impact velocity, projectile and target densities, and projectile diameter, in two extreme cases: the penetration of intact projectiles at low impact pressure and the hemispherical
The analytical models of crater formation in a semi-infinite target under hypervelocity impact have been analyzed. It has been shown by numerical calculations that to approximately calculate the crater size for a narrow range of impact velocities, the model of an ideal plastic body can be used. A ne
