THE SHAPED CHARGE JET INTERACTION WITH FINITE THICKNESS TARGETS

Abstract --The problem of reducing the jet penetration capability upon its interaction with the finite-thickness target, due to the erosion of the front region of the jet having perforated through the target, is considered. The experimental examination and the mathematical modeling of the process were performed; semi-empirical formulas were obtained. The calculation techniques are shown to allow the description of interaction processes with satisfactory accuracy
