In this paper, static perforation tests are conducted to predict the penetration energy for the composite laminates subjected to high velocity impact. Three methods are used to analyze the perforation energy accurately. The first method is to select the perforation point using the AE sensor signal energy, the second method is to retest the tested specimen and use the difference between initial and retested perforation energy, and the third method is to select the perforation point based on the maximum loading point in the retested load-displacement curve of the tested specimen. The predicted perforation energy results are presented and verified by comparing with those by the high velocity tests.

This study aimed to investigate the penetration characteristics of a segmented penetrator with normal and inclined angles. The length to diameter ratio (L/D) of the segmented penetrator was varied as 1.0, 0.5, and 0.25. Moreover, impact velocities of 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 km/s and inclination angles of $15^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$, and $45^{\circ}$ were successively applied. The AUTODYN-3D code was used to simulate the penetration performance of the segmented penetrator. The results show that the penetration performance of the segmented penetrator with steel plates was obviously higher than that of the corresponding continuous penetrator with steel plates. The outstanding penetration performance of the segmented penetrator can be observed when the impact velocity was 2.0 km/s and L/D = 1. In this case, the penetration performance of the segmented penetrator was 7% higher than that of the corresponding continuous penetrator. This trend was attributable to the interaction between the reactive plate and the projectile. The extent of the interaction relies on the relative velocities of the plate and projectiles, inclination angle, and number of segmented penetrators. It was proven that the penetration performance of the segmented penetrator can be improved by increasing the impact velocity, number of segmented penetrators between segments, and penetrator length.

An Armor Piercing Fin Stabilized Discarding Sabot (APFSDS), which penetrates and sabotages the target by physical energy, consists of a general penetrator using Depleted Uranium (DU) or Tungsten Heavy Alloy (THA) but THA is preferable because of manufacturing and environmental issues. On a THA penetrator, the penetration performance is determined mainly by self-sharpening depending on the hardness and toughness of materials. In particular, the tensile strength and impact strength work as key factors. The correlation coefficient for the penetration performance of the tensile strength was 0.721 and the impact strength was -0.599. The improved penetration performance by additional heat treatment was proven experimentally. Therefore, maintaining elongation over 9 % and tensile strength over 123 kg/㎟ is desirable, and the impact strength should be less than 6.8 kg·m/㎠ for good penetration performance.

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 $L/D{\leq}4$.

This paper discusses the effect of numerical reinforcement modeling methods on the penetration performance of a penetrator into a concrete target. AUTODYN-3D has been used to conduct the numerical penetration analyses. In order to validate the computational approach, experimental data of Hanchak have been compared to a computation result and a reasonably good agreement could be obtained. The strength and the diameter of a reinforcement have been changed to find out the effect of reinforcement modeling methods on the penetration performance. The impact locations and velocities of a penetrator are also changed to investigate the effect of reinforcement modeling methods. Residual velocities of a penetrator are quantitatively compared in detail for the evaluation of reinforcement modeling effects on the penetration performance.

1) The decrease in strength of netting twines at the twisted joint is regarded to be due mainly to tile frictional force between plied yarns, but tile rate of decresae is within $5\%$ in filament twines and 5 to $10\%$ in spun twines. 2) The variation of the twisted joint strength with the angle between the two adjacent bars draws a parabola flaying the minimum value at tile angle of $90^{\circ}$. The minimum value was revealed as about $90\%$ of the strength at the angle of $0^{\circ}$ in wet spun twiness, but regarded to hi negligibly small filament twines. 3) The knot strength is about $30{\pm}5\%$of the twisted joint strength.

The Fire Protection Regulatory documents require the fire-resistive rating of fire barrier penetration seals be same as that of fire barriers. Pilot application of penetration seal evaluation for K nuclear plant, built before penetration seal requirements were made, was done. In this evaluation, visual inspection and estimating fire rating by comparing installed configuration with tested configuration of penetration seals, called bounding approach method, were applied. Further improvements for retrofit and maintenance are recommended with penetration seal evaluation results also. The practical use of the methodology adopted in this study and the evaluation result of K nuclear plant will be anticipated for other plant's penetration seal evaluation.
