Abstract
We developed penetration equations for rigid spherical-nose rods that penetrate ductile metal targets. The spherical cavity-expansion approximation and incompressible and compressible elastic-perfectly plastic constitutive idealizations simplified the target analyses, so we obtained closed-form penetration equations. We compared predictions from our models with previously published penetration data and results from Lagrangian and Eulerian wavecodes.
