Abstract

Active electromagnetic (EM) armor is a new type of active defense system, which can intercept invading objects effectively. When hit by interception projectiles, the invading object will deviate from its trajectory or be destroyed totally. A steerable EM launcher system using two separate pancake coils is introduced in this paper, and its 3-D model is built. With finite element analysis code, acceleration process of the interception projectile is simulated, and laws of acceleration force acting on the projectile, its velocity, and displacement versus time are also investigated. Experimental installation is introduced, and experimental data are well matched with simulation results.
