Abstract
Small, flat-fronted cylindrical steel projectiles have been fired at normal obliquity against simulated concrete and steel plate targets. Deformation measurements from these firings are compared with nonlinear finite element analysis results. For firings against simulated concrete, good agreement between analysis and experiment is obtained when an initial transient is added to a quasi-steady-state penetration theory. For firings against steel plates, large element distortions result in computational difficulties.
