Penetration of Hypervelocity Projectiles into Low Density Materials
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
Spherical nylon projectiles of 7mm diameter and up-to 4km/s velocities were penetrated into three types of targets; aluminum multisheet stacks, foamed polystyrene, and 1-atm air. Penetration depth, recovery rate of the projectiles were determined as a function of projectile velocity and target density, and a new type of dust collector is proposed.
