Abstract
To explore the effect of head shape on the penetration capability of a fragment simulation projectile (FSP), single-stage kinetic energy penetration FSP with different head shapes was taken as the research object. The ballistic limit velocity (BLV) is used as the evaluation index in the study of experiments and numerical simulations. The nonlinear dynamic analysis finite element software LS-DYNA with the Lagrange algorithm is used in the simulation for FSP from 35CrMnSi steel penetrating target plates from 10CrNi3MoV (921A) steel of various thicknesses (3, 5, 8, and 10 mm). The ballistic experiment corresponding to the numerical simulation has been designed and carried out to verify the effectiveness of the numerical results. The results show that the values of BLV obtained through numerical simulation and ballistic experiment coincide well, and the average relative error in both is 7.14%. The research results provide a reference for designing FSPs and engineering applications of fragmentation kill warheads.
期刊介绍:
Strength of Materials focuses on the strength of materials and structural components subjected to different types of force and thermal loadings, the limiting strength criteria of structures, and the theory of strength of structures. Consideration is given to actual operating conditions, problems of crack resistance and theories of failure, the theory of oscillations of real mechanical systems, and calculations of the stress-strain state of structural components.
