The paper considers penetration of metallic targets by kinetic penetrators
under ideal conditions. The importance of penetration process studies is in
their direct practical application, which can be related to an optimum
projectile design as well as to a design of ballistic protection. In the
introductory chapter, the problem of penetration is defined and significance
of its solving is emphasized possible applications. The classes of
penetrators and targets are considered as well as the types of penetration
processes. Different approaches to solving the penetration problem are also
discussed and the basic penetration parameters defined. The second chapter
covers a review of the most important empirical models that define the
penetration process parameters.
The most significant part of the paper is related to the consideration of
penetration through thin plates in the plugging regime. Four relevant
analytical approaches to the penetration of thin metallic plates are
analyzed in detail – the deformation-energy model, the structural model, the
three-stage model and the model of deformation waves. A modification of the
model of deformation waves with a deformable penetrator is also presented.
The fourth chapter deals with the penetration of targets of significant
thickness. The twodimensional model, which is a considerable substantial
improvement of the three-stage model, is considered.
The paper is a review of the most important empirical and analytical models
for penetration of metallic plates. The analyzed models and related computer
programs for penetration modeling are useful methodological instruments for
analysis and design of projectiles and for ballistic protection.
