Studying the redistribution of kinetic energy between the morphologically distinct parts of the fragments cloud formed from high-velocity impact fragmentation of an aluminum sphere on a steel mesh

Numerical simulations of experiments (Shumikhin et al., 2014) on the fragmentation of aluminum spheres with diameter of 6.35 mm on single steel-mesh bumpers of different specific mass are carried out in the present work. Specific mass of the mesh bumpers in these experiments was varied by changing t...
