Abstract

The design of missile require extremely small warheads that must be highly efficient and lethal. The penetration characteristics of each penetrator and the total number of penetrators on the warhead are obvious key factors that influence warhead lethality. The design of the penetrator shape and size are directly related to the space and weight of the warhead. The design of the penetrator L/D was directly related to the space and weight of the warhead. L and D are the length and the diameter of the projectile, respectively. The AUTODYN-3D code was used to study the effect of penetrator penetration. The objective of numerical analysis was to determine the penetration characteristics of penetrator produced by hypervelocity impacts under different initial conditions such as initial velocity, obliquity angle and L/D of penetrator. The residual velocity and residual mass were decreased with increasing initial impact velocity under $L/D{\leq}4$.

미사일 설계에서는 매우 효율적이며 치명적인 극히 작은 탄두를 필요로 한다. 탄두에서 각 관통자의 관통성능과 관통자의 총 개수는 탄두 파괴성능에 영향을 미치는 주요 요인이다. 관통자 L/D 의 설계는 탄두의 공간과 중량에 직접적인 관련되어 있다. L 과 D 는 발사체의 길이와 직경이다. AUTODYN-3D code 가 관통자 관통의 영향을 연구하기 위해 사용되었다. 수치해석의 목적은 초기속도, 경사각도, 관통자의 L/D 와 같은 다양한 초기 조건 아래 초고속 충격에 의해 생성되는 관통자의 관통특성을 확인하는 것이다. $L/D{\leq}4$ 에서의 초기 충격속도 증가는 잔류질량과 잔류속도를 감소시킨다.
