In this study, an attempt has been made to investigate the water-entry characteristics of the high-speed parallel projectile numerically. The shear stress transport k-𝜔 turbulence model and the Zwart-Gerber-Belamri cavitation model based on the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes method were used. The grid independent inspection and grid convergence index is carried out and verified. The influences of the parallel water-entry on flow filed characteristics, trajectory stability and drag reduction performance for different values of initial water-entry speed (𝜈₀ = 280 m/s, 340 m/s, 400 m/s) and clearance between the parallel projectiles (L_p = 0.5D, 1.0D, 2.0D, 3.0D) are presented and analyzed in detail. Under the condition of the parallel water-entry, it can be found that due to the intense interference between the parallel projectiles, the distribution of cavity is non-uniform and part of the projectile is exposed to water, resulting in the destruction of the cavity structure and the decline of trajectory stability. In addition, the parallel projectile suffers more severe lateral force that separates the two projectiles. The drag reduction performance is impacted and the velocity attenuation is accelerated as the clearance between the parallel projectiles reduces.

This paper is focusing on the difference from experiment result and method through dynamic loaded from impact analysis about inertia measure unit of high speed projectile. At Inertia measure unit dynamic load is applied when the high speed projectile is operated by impact to inside. it is necessary to design inertia measure unit enduring from external effect with operating environment. Investigation of material deformation with high strain speed is performed for military purpose, and still concerned to many scientist. From this study, this paper will prove of impact analysis result through comparing with experiment result and method when applied dynamic load.

Three dimensional, compressible, mass weighted averaging of Favre, Navier-Stokes system with k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence, is numerically discretized to compute three dimensional multiple jet interaction flow fields for a hybrid projectile containing three rocket motors in the ogive section. Numerical flow field computations have been made for angled nose jets and rockets at supersonic speed using multiblock structured grid. The jet conditions include very high jet to free stream pressure ratio and high temperature. It is shown that the strength of nozzle stagnation pressure affects the flow field near the side nozzle and the high stagnation pressure increases total amount of drag by a few percent. However, minor drag loss due to the pressure drag might be fully overcomed by an additional axial thrust. The results of present study can be applied for the design of future hybrid projectile.

This study investigates the dynamic response characteristics of a structure impacted by a high speed projectile. The impact of a 300 kg projectile on a water storage tank is simulated by the general purpose computer codes ANSYS and LS-DYNA. Several methods to simulate the impact are considered and their results are compared. Based upon this, an alternative impact analysis method that is equivalent to an explicit dynamic analysis is proposed. The effect of fluid on the responses of the tank is also addressed.

Purpose: We sought to understand why a high-speed rotating projectile featuring a fuze-and-body assembly sometimes exhibited airburst, and we intended to improve the flight stability by eliminating airburst. Methods: We performed characteristic factor analysis, structural mechanics modeling, and dynamic modeling and simulation; and we scheduled firing tests to discover the cause of airburst. We used a step-by-step procedure to analyze the reliability function for selecting the bonding force standard that prevents airburst. Results: The 00MM high-speed rotating projectile features a fuze bonded to a body assembly; the bonding sometimes can break on firing. The resulting contact force, vibration and roll damping during flight generated yaw. Flight became unstable; fuze operation triggered an airburst. Our reliability test improved the bonding force standard (the force was increased). When the bonding force was at least the minimum required, a firing test revealed that airburst/flight instability disappeared. Conclusion: Analysis and identification of the causes of flight instability and airburst render military training safer and enhance combat power. Ammunition must perform as designed. Our method can be used to set standards that improve the performances of similar types of ammunition.

This study was conducted in order to validate the nose shape factors of projectile in existing impact formulas for high-strength concrete in the event of collision with high-speed projectiles. In order to conduct the high-speed impact experiment, specified concrete strengths of 35, 100, and 120 MPa were prepared and tested in collision with both conical and hemispherical projectiles. The results showed that the measured penetration depth did not decrease linearly as concrete strength increased. Comparing the ratio penetration depth to the kinetic energy of the conical and hemispherical projectiles, the difference in the ratios for high strength concrete was observed to decline as concrete strength increased. However, in the modified NDRC and the Hughes formulas, the difference in the predicted penetration depth of the conical and hemispherical projectiles was constant despite increasing concrete strength. The modified NDRC and Hughes formulas should be improved upon so as to be applied to high strength concrete.

본 연구의 목적은 풍동실험을 통해 회전발사체에서 발생하는 동적 롤댐핑 특성을 실험적으로 측정하는데 있었으며, 이를 위해 약 12,000 rpm으로 회전하는 회전발사체 실험모형에 작용하는 롤댐핑 특성의 측정을 위한 고속풍동실험을 국방과학연구소 삼중음속풍동에서 수행하였다. 실험시의 마하수는 0.7~1.05까지의 천음속 영역이었으며 이때의 받음각 구간은 -4~+10 deg이었다. 풍동실험 측정기법의 유효성 평가를 위해 동일형상 모형에 대해 기 수행하였던 롤댐핑 측정결과와의 비교검토를 수행하였다.

Behavior of concrete elements under the effect of high-speed projectiles has gain increasing interest recently. It's necessary to understand how far the concrete can absorb the effect of bullets in order to save the occupants when design security and military infrastructures. This study presents a total of 18 concrete slabs casted and tested under reinforcement ratios, 0%, 0.35% and 0.7%. Parameters interested were slab thickness, (50 mm, 100 mm, and 150 mm) and type of weapon. All specimens tested to investigate their response under the effect of attacking by two common types of weapon. In general, it was found that projectile penetration was controlled by their thickness regardless the steel reinforcement ratio. However, the steel reinforcement controls the damage.

Numerical analyses were performed using a one-dimensional Euler equation and Godunov Harten-Lax-Van Leer(HLL) Riemann solver in order to study the deceleration characteristics of a 155 mm projectile in a soft recovery system. The soft recovery system consisting of a series of pressure tubes is a system that decelerates the test projectile fired at supersonic speed using a high-pressure gas and filled water inside. Therefore, depending on the gas pressure and the amount of water filling, the deceleration and the exit velocity of the test projectile inside the pressure tube are determined. In this paper, the deceleration characteristics of the test projectile were analyzed according to the gas pressure and water mass filled.

In this paper, the impact damage behavior of USN-150B carbon/epoxy composite laminates subjected to high velocity impact was studied experimentally and numerically. Square composite laminates stacked with $[45/0/-45/90]_{ns}$ quasi-symmetric and $[0/90]_{ns}$ cross-ply stacking sequences and a conical shape projectile with steel core, copper skin and lead filler were considered. First high-velocity impact tests were conducted under various test conditions. Three tests were repeated under the same impact condition. Projectile velocity before and after penetration were measured by infrared ray sensors and magnetic sensors. High-speed camera shots and C-Scan images were also taken to measure the projectile velocities and to obtain the information on the damage shapes of the projectile and the laminate specimens. Next, the numerical simulation was performed using explicit finite element code LS-DYNA. Both the projectile and the composite laminate were modeled using three-dimensional solid elements. Residual velocity history of the impact projectile and the failure shape and extents of the laminates were predicted and systematically examined. The results of this study can provide the understanding on the penetration process of laminated composites during ballistic impact, as well as the damage amount and modes. These were thought to be utilized to predict the decrease of mechanical properties and also to help mitigate impact damage of composite structures.
