HIGH-VELOCITY PENETRATION OF PLANE SHAPED-CHARGE JETS INTO NONLINEAR MEDIA

摘要

This paper reports results of metallographic analysis of metal samples cut from, targets penetrated by plane shaped-charge jets. It is shown that the plastic deformation due to penetration has a turbulent nature, and, in some cases, it occurs in metals with fractal structure formed after passage of the shock wave running ahead of the jet. A penetration model is proposed that takes into account the nonlinear behavior of the target material and the fractality of its structure.
