Phenomenology of the Maximum Fragment Mass Dependence Upon Ballistic Impact Parameters

Abstract Molecular dynamics simulations of the ballistic Taylor test are used to explore correlation between the largest fragment mass and the impact energy of a projectile as well as a set of selected state variables. Flat-ended, monocrystalline, nanoscale bars collide with a rigid wall with striki...
