Steel Target

Copper fragments are found to adhere on penetration channel wall after copper jets penetrate steel target, and the research on it is helpful to know microstructure evolution of jets in the process of penetration and cooling time. This paper is based on the observation of bore in steel target penetrated by copper jets, and uses numerical simulation to study the process of copper jets penetration, then the change of temperature and grain size of jets adhered on penetration channel wall can be gotten, and the results agree with the observation of penetration channel wall taken by SEM. From the observations of copper and steel, we can get the conclusion that copper jets are not melted but have dynamic recrystallization in the process of penetration, then copper grain size increases obviously in cooling time, and twins are formed at the same time.

Control Cabin

In guided munitions, the shaped charge jet (SCJ) warhead is located behind the simulation compartment (including the control cabin, the steering gear cabin, and the guidance cabin). Therefore, the order of penetration of the SCJ is the simulation cabin and the target. To study the penetration performance of the SCJ to the target plate, the numerical simulation method is used to study the penetration performance of the designed warhead for the steel target at different standoffs, and the depth of penetration (DOP) at the best standoff is obtained, that is, the DOP of the steel target is about 128 mm. Additionally, the penetration performance of the SCJ warhead to target is studied by numerical simulation and experimental verification. Numerical simulation and experimental results show that the DOP of the SCJ warhead to the steel target is 50 mm without the simulation cabin, and about 30 mm with the simulation cabin. The results show that the penetration performance of SCJ is greatly weakened under the condition of non-optimal standoff, but the rear shaped charge warhead still has a strong penetration performance after completing the penetration of the simulated cabin.

Shaped Charge Jet

According to the calculations, the penetration effect of shaped charges can be significantly increased (by 40–50 % in the case of a high-strength steel target) if due increasing the accuracy of their manufacture the lower speed threshold is reduced at which the penetration of the tail sections of the shaped-charge jet into the target is stopped. For experimental confirmation of these data, it is proposed to study in detail the penetrability of the tail sections of shaped-charge jets using cut-off rods made of high-density material located at a short distance from the shaped charge (less than its diameter) and designed to eliminate the faster part of the jet. Based on numerical simulation in the framework of a two-dimensional axisymmetric problem of continuum mechanics, possible parameters of the cut-off rods for generating solitary "tails" of shaped-charge jets with different velocities of the leading element are predicted.

Explosion Test

Based on the AUTODYN-2D nonlinear dynamics platform, numerical simulations andexperiments are conducted to study the effect of 44mm small-caliber shaped charge on penetrationcharacteristics. Copper as the suitable material is chosen for small-caliber shaped charges, and theinfluence of the cone and the thickness of liner on the penetration of the jet into the steel target isobtained. The results show that the penetration depth decreases with the growth of the cone angle.Moreover, with the thickness of liner increasing, the penetration depth increases first and thendecreases. Based on the numerical simulation, structural parameters of the double cone liners wereoptimized: the optimum thickness liner was 1.2mm, and the optimal upper and lower cone of thedouble-cone liner was 40° and 60°. Besides, a static explosion test that the optimized double coneof the copper-type liner penetrated 45# steel targets is performed to verify the numerical simulation.
