Abstract
The oblique and normal perforation of a concrete target subjected to a rigid projectile impact is studied in this paper. A general three-stages model, i.e., initial cratering, tunnelling and shear plugging, is developed based on dynamic cavity expansion theory and plug formation. Analytical solutions for the ballistic performance and the perforation limit of concrete target are obtained. The proposed formulae are consistent with other empirical formulae and correlate well with the experimental data.
