Abstract
T he theory of long rod penetration as given in a previous paper by the author is extended to take account of the deformation of a soft rod against a rigid target and the penetration of a rigid projectile into a soft target. It is shown that it is theoretically possible to have a decrease in depth of penetration with increasing impact velocity, and a method for deducing the average radius of the hole is given. The theory is compared with experimental results.
