The numerical simulation analysis of the formation, elongation and penetration processes of rod-like jet is conducted by using LS-DYNA software. And the penetrating test is carried out at long stand-off distance. The test results show that the rod-like jet formed by the optimized spherical segment liner can pierce through a 90mm thick 45# steel target at 20 charge diameters(CD) stand-off distance when the charge detonation mode is a central point initiation, and the penetration depth can be up to 1.6CD. It is concluded that, at 20 CD stand-off distance, the penetration performance of JPC with spherical segment liner is the best, that of truncated wide-angle liner takes second place, and that of spherical cone liner is the worst.展开更多

This paper proposes an innovative surface modification method attempting to modify the EPDM insulation layer coated with reduced graphene oxide(RGO), which exhibits ability to weaken the NG absorption by EPDM insulation layer,blocking the pathway of NG migration into EPDM insulation materials. The microstructure of RGO-coated layer was analyzed and the formation mechanism was investigated. The RGO-coated layer is well bonded to the HTPB liner, and its anti-migration performance to NG at different temperatures has been evaluated. Comparing with blank samples under the same storage conditions, the RGO-coated layers can reduce the diffusion coefficient of NG by up to 87.3% and increase the diffusion activation energy of NG by14.8 kJ,mol^(-1). This research provides a new strategy to effectively inhibit NG migration in NEPE propellant/HTPB liner/EPDM insulation bonding system.展开更多

文摘Shaped charge has been widely used for penetrating concrete.However,due to the obvious difference between the propagation of shock waves and explosion products in water and air,the theory governing the formation of shaped charge jets in water as well as the underwater penetration effect of concrete need to be studied.In this paper,we introduced a modified forming theory of an underwater hemispherical shaped charge,and investigated the behavior of jet formation and concrete penetration in both air and water experimentally and numerically.The results show that the modified jet forming theory predicts the jet velocity of the hemispherical liner with an error of less than 10%.The underwater jets exhibit at least 3%faster and 11%longer than those in air.Concrete shows different failure modes after penetration in air and water.The depth of penetration deepens at least 18.75%after underwater penetration,accompanied by deeper crater with 65%smaller radius.Moreover,cracks throughout the entire target are formed,whereas cracks exist only near the penetration hole in air.This comprehensive study provides guidance for optimizing the structure of shaped charge and improves the understanding of the permeability effect of concrete in water.
文摘In this paper,the failure caused by HRAM loads which were generated by high-speed projectile penetration,and protection technology of the fluid-filled structure were explored.A bubble was preset on the projectile trajectory in a fluid-filled structure.Based on the reflection and transmission phenomena of pressure waves at the gas-liquid interface and the compressibility characteristics of gases,a numerical analysis was conducted on the influence of preset bubble on projectile penetration and structural failure characteristics.The results indicate that the secondary water-entry impact phenomenon occurs when a preset bubble exists on the projectile trajectory,leading to the secondary water entry impact loads.The rarefaction waves reflected on the surface of the preset bubble cause the attenuation ratio of the initial impact pressure peak to reach 68.8%and the total specific impulse attenuation ratio to reach 48.6%.Furthermore,the larger the bubble,the faster the projectile,and the more obvious the attenuation effect.Moreover,due to the compressibility of the bubble,the global deformation attenuation ratio of the front and rear walls can reach over 80%.However,the larger the bubble size,the faster the projectile velocity,the smaller the local deformation attenuation effect of the rear wall,and the more severe the failure at the perforation of the rear wall.

文摘Numerous former military sites worldwide require environmental cleanup from buried unexploded ordnance(UxO)that pose hazards such as leaching toxic chemicals and explosion risks.However,selecting the appropriate mitigation technology relies on prior knowledge of UxO depth of burial(DoB)at specific sites.This study utilizes numerical simulations,employing large deformation explicit finite element(LDEFE)analysis and the Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian(CEL)approach,to model the penetration of ordnances into clay targets.A modified Tresca constitutive model is implemented in ABAQUS software to capture key features of clay behavior under high strain rate(HSR)loading.The role of various parameters on DoB is investigated,including undrained shear strength,stiffness,and density of the soil.The findings highlight the paramount importance of undrained shear strength in clayey soil penetrability,in addition to the role of soil stiffness,and density.The simulations were employed to calibrate model parameters for Young's empirical penetration model,as well as the Poncelet phenomenological penetration model,demonstrating the efficacy of the numerical simulations in extrapolating its findings within the relevant parameter space.In particular,the calibrated parameters of Young's and Poncelet's models can be identified as a direct function of the various discussed soil properties,which was previously unavailable.

文摘An experimental and finite element simulation investigation are conducted to study the deformation patterns of steel targets during the penetration process of tungsten alloy long rods,as well as the influence of strength of the target on the deformation patterns.The experimental results revealed slight mass loss in the first layer of the steel target during the transient entrance phase,with an extremely negligible loss in target mass during the quasi-steady penetration phase.The results of macro-analysis,micro-analysis and simulation show that the eroded target material migrated towards the periphery of the crater,causing an increase in the target's thickness,remained within the target,instead of flowing out of the crater.Therefore,the process of long rods penetrating the metal target is considered as a process of backward extrusion.By combining the backward extrusion theory with energy conservation,a penetration depth model for long rods penetrating a metal target,taking into account both the diameter of the crater and the friction coefficient between the rod and the target,has been established.Although the model is not yet perfect,it innovatively applies the principles of solid mechanics to the study of long rod penetration.Additionally,it takes into account the friction coefficient between the rod and the target during the penetration process.Therefore,this model provides a new research direction for future studies on long rod penetration.

文摘The motion characteristics of projectile during oblique penetration into concrete were studied using a three-dimensional meso-scale model.The finite element model validation and parameter chosen were conducted by comparing the experimental data,with computational efficiency enhanced through improved mesh refinement.Penetration simulations involving deformable projectiles at various incident angles analyzed the effects of aggregate volume fraction and particle size on ballistic trajectory and terminal deflection.Sensitivity analysis reveals a strong power-law relationship between aggregate content and the projectile's deflection angle.The increase in aggregate content will enhance the confinement effect,shorten the intrusion distance of the projectile,and lead to a decrease in the deflection angle of the projectile.The effect of aggregate particle size on the projectile deflection angle follows a Gaussian distribution.The maximum deflection angle occurs when the aggregate particle size is between 2.7 and 3.1 times the projectile diameter.An increase in particle size reduces the number of aggregate-mortar interfaces at the same aggregate volume fraction,leading to an enlargement of the damage zone in concrete,a decrease in the number of cracks,and an increase in crack length.These findings enhance the understanding of concrete penetration mechanisms and offers valuable insights for engineering structure protection.

文摘The study aims to explore the damage characteristics and protection technologies of liquid-filled structures under high-speed projectile impact.A series of penetration impact experiments were conducted by focusing on different air layer configurations.By using high-speed camera and dynamic measurement systems,the effects of air layers on the projectile penetration,pressure wave propagation,cavitation evolution,and structural dynamic responses were analyzed.The results showed that the rarefaction wave reflected from the air-liquid interface significantly reduced the peak and specific impulse of the initial pressure wave,thereby diminishing the impact load on the structure.Additionally,the compressibility of air layers also attenuated the cavitation extrusion load.Both front and rear plates exhibited superimposed deformation modes,i.e.,local deformation or petal fracture with global deformation.Air layers effectively mitigated global deformation.However,when the air layer was positioned on the projectile's trajectory,it split the water-entry process and velocity attenuation of the projectile into two relatively independent phases.And the secondary water entry pressure wave caused more severe local deformation and petal fractures on the rear plate.

文摘This paper proposes a modification of the Forrestal-Warren perforation model aimed at extending its applicability range to intermediately-thick high-hardness armor steel plates.When impacted by armorpiercing projectiles,these plates tend to fail through adiabatic shear plugging which significantly reduces their ballistic resistance.To address this effect,an approach for determining effective thickness was defined and incorporated into the predictive model.Ballistic impact tests were performed to assess the modification's validity,in which ARMOX 500T steel plates were subjected to perpendicular impacts from 7.62×39 mm steel-cored rounds under various velocities.Frequent target failure by soft plugging was observed,as well as the brittle shatter of the hard steel core.Key properties of the recovered plugs including their mass,length and diameter were measured and reported along with the projectiles'residual velocities.Additionally,independent data from the open literature were included in the analysis for further validation.The original Forrestal-Warren model and the novel effective thickness modification were then used to establish the relationship between impact and residual velocities,as well as to determine the ballistic limit velocity.The comparison revealed that the proposed approach significantly improves the model's accuracy,showing a strong correlation with experimental data and reducing deviations to within a few percent.This enhancement highlights the potential of the effective thickness term,which could also be applied to other predictive models to extend their applicability range.Further exploration into other armor steels and impact conditions is recommended to assess the method's versatility.

文摘With the application of hypervelocity weapons in warfare,comprehensively evaluating their destructive effects is of particular interest for protective engineering.Existing studies mostly focused on the depth of penetration by hypervelocity projectile,while investigation on stress waves associated with hypervelocity penetration was very limited.To clarify the generation and propagation of stress waves in concrete targets induced by hypervelocity projectile penetration,in the present study,six spherical projectile penetration tests on concrete targets were firstly conducted with projectile velocity ranged from 1875 m/s to 3940 m/s,in which the stress waves were carefully measured by the PVDF transducers.Then corresponding numerical models were developed and validated,and based on the validated numerical model the mechanisms of generation and propagation of stress waves were clarified.It was found that the stress waves observed during hypervelocity penetration are generated by the continuous interactions of projectile and target during penetration,and have unique characteristics such as the directionality and the"two peaks"phenomenon when compared with the stress waves generated by charge explosion.Finally,the effects of projectile velocity,projectile material,and target strength on the stress waves below the penetration depth we re numerically investigated,and two important indexes for evaluating the stress waves by hypervelocity penetration were proposed.

文摘According to different damage modes,warheads are roughly divided into three types:fragmentation warheads,shaped charge warheads,and penetrating warheads.Due to limitations in material and structural manufacturing,traditional manufacturing methods make it difficult to fully utilize the damage ability of the warhead.Additive manufacturing(AM)technology can fabricate complex structures,with classified materials composition and customized components,while achieving low cost,high accuracy,and rapid production of the parts.The maturity of AM technology has brought about a new round of revolution in the field of warheads.In this paper,we first review the principles,classifications,and characteristics of different AM technologies.The development trends of AM technologies are pointed out,including multi-material AM technology,hybrid AM technology,and smart AM technology.From our survey,PBF,DED,and EBM technologies are mainly used to manufacture warhead damage elements.FDM and DIW technologies are mainly used to manufacture warhead charges.Then,the research on the application of AM technology in three types of warhead and warhead charges was reviewed and the existing problems and progress of AM technologies in each warhead were analyzed.Finally,we summarized the typical applications and look forward to the application prospects of AM technology in the field of warheads.

文摘This study systematically investigates the mechanical response characteristics of Mo-10Cu pseudo-alloy under various conditions,including temperatures ranging from 298 K to 550 K,strain rates from1×10^(-2)s^(-1)to 5.2×10^(3)s^(-1),and dynamic impact loads from 134 m/s to 837 m/s.The investigation is conducted using a combination of multi-method crossover experiment and numerical simulations,with accuracy validated through X-ray testing and static penetration test.Using a universal testing machine,Split-Hopkinson Pressure Bar(SHPB)system,and a light-gas gun,the dynamic constitutive behavior and shock adiabatic curves of the alloy under complex loading conditions are revealed.Experimental results demonstrate that the flow stress evolution of Mo-10Cu alloy exhibits significant strain hardening,and strain-rate strengthening.Based on these observations,a Johnson-Cook(J-C)constitutive model has been developed to describe the material's dynamic behavior.Through free-surface particle velocity measurements,the shock adiabatic relationship was obtained,and a Gruneisen equation of state was established.X-ray experimental results confirm that the Mo-10Cu liner can generate well-formed,cohesive jets.The penetration test results show that the maximum penetration depth can reach243.10 mm.The maximum error between the numerical simulation and the X-ray test is less than 7.70%,and the error with the penetration test is 4.73%,which confirms the accuracy of the constitutive parameters and the state equation.In conclusion,the proposed J-C model and Gruneisen equation effectively predict the dynamic response and jet formation characteristics of Mo-10Cu alloy under extreme loads.This work provides both theoretical support and experimental data for material design and performance optimization in shaped charge applications.

文摘The impact of high-velocity penetrators into liquid-filled containers can generate hydrodynamic ram effects,potentially causing catastrophic structural damage to the container.Previous studies have primarily focused on undeformed penetrators,such as fragments or bullets,with limited attention directed toward shaped charge jets.This study investigates the penetration characteristics of shaped charge jets impacting behind-armor liquid-filled containers,with particular emphasis on jet-liquid interactions.A theoretical penetration model incorporating material compressibility and jet stretching was developed based on the virtual origin theory.A high-speed imaging experimental system was designed to capture the jet motion within the container.The impact process was numerically reproduced using ANSYS/LSDYNA,and the effects of standoff and overmatch on jet penetration were analyzed.The results reveal that jet stretching induced by increased standoff enhances the penetration velocity of the jet.A proportional relationship between the stretching factor(λ)and the overmatch parameter(I)was identified,withλranging from approximately 1.22 to 1.38 times I across the studied standoff range(80-220 mm).The findings offer a basis for future studies on the pressure distribution in the liquid and the structural response of containers.

文摘The non-scaling effect on the penetration depth of rigid projectiles is an important issue that must be considered when extending the results of scaled experiments to prototype scenes.In this study,the evolution of the stress and strain of the target under penetration was analyzed.Expressions for the penetration resistance and penetration depth were obtained based on the conservation equation and continuity condition of the target.The penetration coefficients that characterize the nose shape,target resistance,and non-scaling effect were defined.Simplified calculation methods for the coefficients within the range of rigid projectile penetration were developed.Two methods for estimating the target parameters are proposed.The results show that the non-scaling effect is related to the failure process of the target and depends on the ratio of cavity radius to comminuted region radius.The nose shape coefficient can be approximated as a linear function of the length-to-diameter ratio of the nose.The noseshape coefficient of a flat-nosed projectile is 0.57.The caliber coefficient is related to the projectile diameter and reflects the non-scaling effect,which increases with the projectile diameter.A practical formula for calculating the penetration depth of rigid projectiles considering the non-scaling effect is also proposed.This formula is in good agreement with penetration experiments on rock and concrete.

文摘To investigate the dynamic response of the cylindrical shell targets to supercavitating projectile transmedium penetration and the penetration mechanism,experiments and numerical simulations were conducted.Simulations examined the effects of entry water velocity and impact angle on penetration behavior.The results indicate that,upon water entry,the supercavitating projectile transfers its kinetic energy to the surrounding water medium,causing a sudden rise in local pressure.This creates an approximately hemispherical pressure field in the water medium ahead of the nose of the projectile,where the pressure distribution and magnitude are positively correlated with the velocity of the projectile.As the pressure field approaches the cylindrical shell,the area around the impact point experiences pre-stress and deformation due to the hydrodynamic pressure,which is known as the hydrodynamic ram effect.The deformation of the cylindrical shell caused by the hydrodynamic ram effect increases with increasing velocity of the projectile and exhibits a non-linear relationship with the impact angle,first decreasing and then increasing as the impact angle rises.Additionally,the hydrodynamic ram effect leads to greater local deformation and higher peak stresses in the cylindrical shell,which reduces the penetration drag force faced by the projectile in water compared to air,indicating a lower ballistic limit for underwater targets.During the penetration process,as the impact angle increases,the supercavitating projectile undergoes repetitive bending deformation and even brittle fracture,while the failure mode of the target is characterized by ductile hole expansion.Furthermore,the critical penetration velocity required to perforate the cylindrical shell target increases with increasing impact angle.
文摘In the present study,the mechanical and ballistic properties of friction stir welded(FSW)aluminum alloy(AA5754)samples were investigated,both untreated and cryogenically treated,when impacted by a 7.62 mm armour-piercing(AP)bullet at an impact velocity of 682±20 m/s.The FSW technique was used to prepare the welded samples for AA5754,with an axial force of 7 kN,a feed rate of 20 mm/min,and a speed of 1200 rpm.The cryogenic treatments performed after welding,including deep cryogenic treatment(DCT)at196℃ and shallow cryogenic treatment(SCT)at80℃,for 6 and 72 h,respectively.The microstructure and mechanical characteristics of cryogenically treated and untreated joints were examined.The cryogenic treatment refined the grain size(1.05 μm)and enhanced the microhardness(93 Hv).Moreover,DCT-FSW significantly improved the tensile strength(13.93%)and impact strength(8.45%)compared to untreated FSW sample.Additionally,in untreated FSW samples,the fracture behaviour varied:the impact fracture mode primarily exhibited ductile failure,while the tensile fracture exhibited a mixed fracture mode.In contrast,the tensile and impact fracture modes of the DCT-FSWwere dominated by a ductile failure mode.The DCT-FSW target demonstrated a lower depth of penetration(DOP)of 31 mm compared to the SCT-FSWand untreated FSW targets.Post-ballistic SEM analysis in the crater region of all three zones revealed the formation of frictional grooves,small cracks,and adiabatic shear bands(ASBs).

文摘The migration of nitroglycerin(NG) has always been the critical issue that harmfully impacts the structural integrity and operational reliability of the solid rocket motor, which is mainly composed by Nitrate Ester Plasticized Polyether(NEPE) propellant/Hydroxyl-terminated Polybutadiene(HTPB) liner/Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer(EPDM) insulation bonding system. This paper proposes an innovative surface modification method attempting to modify the EPDM insulation layer coated with reduced graphene oxide(RGO), which exhibits ability to weaken the NG absorption by EPDM insulation layer,blocking the pathway of NG migration into EPDM insulation materials. The microstructure of RGO-coated layer was analyzed and the formation mechanism was investigated. The RGO-coated layer is well bonded to the HTPB liner, and its anti-migration performance to NG at different temperatures has been evaluated. Comparing with blank samples under the same storage conditions, the RGO-coated layers can reduce the diffusion coefficient of NG by up to 87.3% and increase the diffusion activation energy of NG by14.8 kJ,mol^(-1). This research provides a new strategy to effectively inhibit NG migration in NEPE propellant/HTPB liner/EPDM insulation bonding system.

文摘Ground penetrating radar(GPR),as a fast,efficient,and non-destructive detection device,holds great potential for the detection of shallow subsurface environments,such as urban road subsurface monitoring.However,the interpretation of GPR echo images often relies on manual recognition by experienced engineers.In order to address the automatic interpretation of cavity targets in GPR echo images,a recognition-algorithm based on Gaussian mixed model-hidden Markov model(GMM-HMM)is proposed,which can recognize three dimensional(3D)underground voids automatically.First,energy detection on the echo images is performed,whereby the data is preprocessed and pre-filtered.Then,edge histogram descriptor(EHD),histogram of oriented gradient(HOG),and Log-Gabor filters are used to extract features from the images.The traditional method can only be applied to 2D images and pre-processing is required for C-scan images.Finally,the aggregated features are fed into the GMM-HMM for classification and compared with two other methods,long short-term memory(LSTM)and gate recurrent unit(GRU).By testing on a simulated dataset,an accuracy rate of 90%is obtained,demonstrating the effectiveness and efficiency of our proposed method.
