Abstract
Analysis of effectiveness of two types of net systems protecting vehicles against projectiles with cumulative (shaped charge) warhead is presented in the article. Numerical models of net screens and PG7-WM projectile were created to simulate projectile penetration into the screen. Numerical analyses were used to determine a maximal distance in radial direction from projectile axis for which screen elements should come into contact with the projectile to neutralize it. Determined distances were used to calculate the probability of neutralization of pro-jectiles by net systems. Calculations were performed for elevation and azimuth angles of α = 0÷45°. The values calculated in such way were used to make graphs of PG-7WM projectile neutralization probability for both types of net systems in function of mesh size and azimuth and elevation angles at various mesh sizes. Received results may be used to optimize geometries of net systems to in-crease effectiveness of projectile neutralization.
