Impact experiments have been carried out on concrete slabs. The first group was traditionally manufactured, densely reinforced concrete targets, and the next were ordinary Portland and calcium aluminate cement based HPSFRC (High performance steel fiber reinforced concrete) and SIFCON (Slurry infiltrated concrete) targets. All specimens were hit by anti-armor tungsten projectiles at a muzzle velocity of over 4 Mach causing destructive perforation. In Part I of this article, production and experimental procedures are described. The first group of specimens were ordinary CEM I 42.5 R cement based targets including only dense reinforcement. In the second and third groups, specimens were produced using CEM I 42.5 R cement and Calcium Aluminate Cement (CAC40) with ordinary reinforcement and steel fibers 2 percent in volume. In the fourth group, SIFCON specimens including 12 percent of steel fibers without reinforcement were tested. A high-speed camera was used to capture impact and residual velocities of the projectile. Sample tests were performed to obtain mechanical properties of the materials. In the companion Part II of this study, numerical investigations and simulations performed will be presented. Few studies exist that examine high-velocity impact effects on CAC40 based HPSFRC targets, so this investigation gives an insight for comparison of their behavior with Portland cement based and SIFCON specimens.

Protection against direct projectiles has been adapted just to the main command posts in the existing protective facility standards. However, protective capacity for the shelters against direct projectiles is also required because the initial survivability as well as the operation sustainment of the shelters is critical during a couple of days from outbreak of war. In this study, the Russian artillery is used to determine the existing and future threat of the North Korean Armed Forces indirectly. And then, required protective capacity of military shelters in the contact areas is calculated along with UFC 3-340-02 and it is verified using modeling and simulation. Based on the assessed capacity, actual inspect of military facilities with contact areas on spot is performed whether military shelters have enough protection capacity against determined threats. According to the field study, it is verified that proper earth bermed shelter has enough protection capacity. The results in this study could be used how to retrofit the current shelters in the contact areas.

We investigated the protection capability of a plate against high speed projectiles demonstrating collision and penetration behaviors by finite element analysis. The element erosion method was used for penetration analysis, which showed that the speed of the projectile was slightly reduced by the collision with the protection plate. Protection capability was measured by the projectile's attitude angle change because the damage of our tanks by projectiles was also dependent on the projectile-tank collision angle. When the length of the protection plate was sufficiently long, the projectile was severely deformed and incapacitated. In the case of a small plate, the projectile was deformed only in the collision region. Thus, projection capability was investigated by the change of attitude angle. The effect of collision angle, velocity, and length of the plate on the rotational and vertical velocities of the projectile was investigated.

The main objective of this article is to investigate the response of different fiber metal laminates subjected to low velocity impact experimentally and numerically via finite element method (FEM). Hence, two different fiber metal laminate (FML) samples (GLARE/CARALL) are made of 7075-T6 aluminum sheets and polymeric composites reinforced by E-glass/carbon fibers. In order to study the responses to the low velocity impacts, samples are tested by drop weight machine. The projectiles are released from 1- and 1.5-meters height were the speed reaches to 4.42 and5.42 meter per second and the impact energies are measured as 6.7 and 10 Joules. In addition to experimental study, finite element simulation is done and results are compared. Finally, a detailed study on the maximum deflection, delamination and damages in laminates and geometry's effect of projectiles on the laminate response is done. Results show that maximum deflection caused by spherical projectile for GLARE samples is more apparent in comparison with the CARALL samples. Moreover, the maximum deflection of GLARE samples subjected to spherical projectile with 6.7 Joules impact energy, 127% increases in comparison with the CARALL samples in spite of different total thickness.

Visualization has played an essential role in the development of our understanding of the complex unsteady flows associated with the initiation, propagation, and extinction of detonation waves. These methods and application to various aspects of detonation are illustrated by results obtained in my laboratory, particularly using combinations of the PLIF technique with other methods. Examples shown will include detonation initiation by projectiles, diffraction over ramps and steps, diffraction out of tubes, detonation implosion, and the cellular structure of detonation waves.

In the existing GFCS (Gun Fire Control Systems) there is sometimes the problem of the miss distance which is between a target and the projectiles from gun and cannot be neglected. This errors are difficult to reduce either in the gun design phase or by precalibration exercise. In this paper the CLSA (Closed Loop Spotting Algorithm) which is applied to improve the performance of the GFCS is porposed and analysed. The results simulated by Monte Carlo technics show us better performance than the existing GFCS.

We present the numerical implementation, simulation, and validation of the high-velocity impact experiments that have been described in the companion article. In this part, numerical investigations and simulations performed to mimic the tests are presented. The experiments were analyzed by the explicit integration-based software ABAQUS for improved simulations. Targets were modeled with a damaged plasticity model for concrete. Computational results of residual velocity and crater dimensions yielded acceptable results.

회전익 항공기의 연료탱크는 피탄 시 기체 및 승무원의 생존성 확보를 위하여 연료누설을 차단하는 자기밀폐기능과 충돌 및 전복에 대처하기 위한 내 충돌성이 대표적으로 요구된다. 그 중 자기밀폐 기능은 연료탱크 피탄 시 내부에 적층된 자기밀폐 소재가 누설되는 연료와의 접촉을 통해 급속한 부피팽창을 일으켜 연료누설을 감소시켜주는 역할을 함으로써 군용 회전익기의 생존성을 향상시킨다. 본 연구는 미군사규격(MIL-DTL-27422D) 기준으로 국내에서 수행한 회전익 항공기의 연료탱크 내탄성능 시험평가 결과를 제시한다.

본 논문은 구형 비상체에 의한 충격하중을 받는 강섬유보강 콘크리트 패널의 거동에 대해 유한요소법을 사용하여 연구를 수행하였다. 강섬유보강 콘크리트의 재료 물성치와 비선형구간에 대한 응력-변형 관계는 압축시험과 휨시험을 통해 구하였다. 여러가지 변수 중, 강섬유 체적비와 패널의 두께에 따른 해석을 수행하였고 실험결과와 비교하였다. 강섬유를 혼입함으로써 콘크리트 패널의 방호성능이 향상됨을 확인하였다. 강섬유를 혼입하면 중량 및 면적손실률이 감소하는 효과가 있다. 또한, 유한요소법을 이용하여 파단모드에 대해 예상하였으며 그 결과는 실험과 유사한 경향을 보였다. 이 결과들은 방호 목적의 군용 건물과 기타 건축물의 고속 비상체에 대한 보호를 위한 설계에 대해 적용될 수 있음을 제시하였다.

Experiments were carried out to investigate the ballistic performance of fiber reinforced plastic(FRP)-steel plates completely penetrated by hemispherical-nosed projectiles at sub-ordnance velocities greater than their ballistic limits. The FRP-steel plate consists of a front FRP laminate and a steel backing plate. Failure mechanisms and impact energy absorptions of FRP-steel plates were analyzed and compared with FRP laminates and single steel plates. The effects of relative thickness, manufacturing method and fabric type of front composite armors as well as the joining style between front composite armors and steel backing plates on the total perforation resistance of FRP-steel plates were explored. It is found that in the case of FRP-steel plates completely penetrated by hemispherical-nosed projectiles at low velocities, the failure modes of front composite armors are slightly changed while for steel backing plates, the dominate failure modes are greatly changed due to the influence of front composite armors. The relative thickness and fabric type of front composite armors as well as the joining style of FRP-steel plates have large effects whereas the manufacturing method of front composite armors has slight effect on the total perforation resistance of FRP-steel plates.
