Dynamics of metallic and reinforced concrete targets subjected to projectile impact

Firstly, a comprehensive literature review on hard projectile penetration/perforation for both reinforced and plain concrete targets is presented. It includes strain-rate effects, empirical formulate, analytical methods and numerical simulations. Subsequently, based on a mechanical model and taken a...
