Analytical Prediction of Hole Diameter in Thin Plates Due to Hypervelocity Impact of Spherical Projectiles
A first-principles-based model is presented for calculating the hole diameter resulting from the normal hypervelocity impact of a spherical aluminum projectile on a thin aluminum plate. One-dimensional shock theory is used to predict the creation and attenuation of Hugoniot pressures along the plate...
