Book Description
Containing the proceedings of the Third International Conference on Computational Ballistics, this book presents new ideas and advanced developments in the field of study of Computational Ballistics. Ballistic studies include applications as varied as the study of the structural and control behavior of rockets and communication satellites; bird strike effects on commercial aircraft, terrorist attacks and automobile crack worthiness modelling. Many basic problems of ballistics are similar to those in other fields of applications, such as combustion, heat conduction, in-flight structural behaviour, trajectory related issues, contact, impact, penetration, structural response to shock waves and many others.A valuable contribution to its field, this text will be of interest to researchers involved in the different areas of computational ballistics and their relationship between computational methods and experiments. Notable topics include: Systems and Technolog; Combustion and Heat Transfer; Propellants; Fluid Dynamics; Fluid Flow and Aerodynamics; In-Flight Structural Behaviour and Material Response; Guidance and Control; Perforation and Penetration Mechanics; Fluid-structure Interaction; Experimental Mechanics/ballistic and Field Testing; High Rate Loads; Composite Material; Shock and Impact.

Book Description
Themechanicsofspace?ightisan olddiscipline.Itstopicoriginallywasthemotion of planets, moons and other celestial bodies in gravitational ?elds. Kepler’s (1571 - 1630) observations and measurements have led to probably the ?rst mathematical description of planet’s motion. Newton (1642 - 1727) gave then, with the devel- ment of his principles of mechanics, the physical explanation of these motions. Since then man has started in the second half of the 20th centuryto capture ph- ically the Space in the sense that he did develop arti?cial celestial bodies, which he brought into Earth’s orbits, like satellites or space stations, or which he did send to planets or moons of our planetary system, like probes, or by which p- ple were brought to the moon and back, like capsules. Further he developed an advanced space transportation system, the U.S. Space Shuttle Orbiter, which is the only winged space vehicle ever in operation. In the last two and a half decades there were several activities in the world in order to succeed the U.S. Orbiter, like the HERMES project in Europe, the HOPE project in Japan, the X-33, X-34 and X-37 studies and demonstrators in the United States and the joint U.S. - European project X-38. However, all these projects were cancelled. The motion of these vehicles can be described by Newton’s equation of motion.

Terminal Ballistics
Author: Zvi Rosenberg
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9811003955
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 363
Book Description
This book comprehensively discusses essential aspects of terminal ballistics, combining experimental data, numerical simulations and analytical modeling. Employing a unique approach to numerical simulations as a measure of sensitivity for the major physical parameters, the new edition also includes the following features: new figures to better illustrate the problems discussed; improved explanations for the equation of state of a solid and for the cavity expansion process; new data concerning the Kolsky bar test; and a discussion of analytical modeling for the hole diameter in a thin metallic plate impacted by a shaped charge jet. The section on thick concrete targets penetrated by rigid projectiles has now been expanded to include the latest findings, and two new sections have been added: one on a novel approach to the perforation of thin concrete slabs, and one on testing the failure of thin metallic plates using a hydrodynamic ram.
