摘要
The performance of segmented and continuous penetrators impacting semi-infinite and spaced armor is studied using both the EPIC-2 and HULL hydrocodes. First the performance of a segmented rod is studied, striking semi-infinite armor, for various parameters such as striking velocity, segment spacing and number of segments. Then an actual penetrator configuration proposed by A. Charters is analyzed and the use of normalized penetration is discussed. Finally three-dimensional simulations are presented for segmented and continuous penetrators impacting oblique spaced armor varying such parameters as striking velocity, segment spacing, number of segments, and target thickness. © 1990.
