Abstract
The physical mechanisms operating during the penetration and perforation of metallic and concrete targets by rigid projectiles are reviewed in this paper. The review covers our approach to these phenomena, as detailed in several papers that were published during the last decade. This approach is based on experimental data and their numerical simulations, through which we constructed analytical expressions for the penetration depths and the ballistic limit velocities of the corresponding projectile/target pairs. This review article will benefit researchers in the terminal ballistics community because it presents a full picture of our approach to the subject, and it also outlines the development in our thinking over the years.
