Effect of Periphery Fixity on Ballistic Limit of Thin Aluminum Plate Subjected to Blunt and Ogival Projectile Impact

Three-dimensional numerical simulations were carried out with the ABAQUS/explicit finite element code to study the influence of target boundary conditions on its ballistic limit. 1mm thick 1100-H12 aluminum target of 255 mm span diameter was hit by 19 mm diameter and 50.8 mm length blunt nosed proje...
