What is Effect of Air Gaps on Ballistic Resistance of Targets for Conical Impactors about?
High velocity penetration of a rigid conical impactor into a ductile target with air gaps between the plates is studied using the cylindrical cavity expansion approximation describing impactor±target interaction. It is showed that the latter model predicts improvement of the ballistic performance of the target with the increase of air gaps. It is found analytically that the ballistic limit velocity of the target consisting of N plates with a ®xed total thickness with large air gaps increases with the increase of N. The conditions are discussed when the predicted eects can be most pronounced.
