Abstract

A perforation model is developed to predict the attitude deflection in the oblique perforation of concrete targets by a rigid projectile, in which the inertial moment of the projectile is introduced, together with taking the attitude deflection during the shear plugging sub-stage into account, and the shape of the plug formed on the rear surface of target is also re-investigated. Moreover, a new classification of concrete targets is proposed based on the target thickness, with which the attitude deflections in different kinds of concrete targets are analyzed. It is found that the numerical results by using the new perforation model are in good agreement with the previous experimental data and simulated results. Furthermore, the variations of the attitude deflection with the initial conditions (the initial attitude angle and the initial impact velocity) are investigated.
