Simulation of depth of penetration during ballistic impact on thick targets using a one-dimensional discrete element model

摘要: One-dimensional discrete element model for the ballistic impact is used to determine depth of penetration a bullet on thick target. Discrete Element Method (DEM) numerical tool where continuum modelled as network masses connected by normal springs. A one-dimensional developed obtain displacements and forces associated with The penetrator into target calculated from these DEM results. simulated results are found be in reasonable agreement simulation other approaches that available literature.
