Summary
The fragmentation of solid plates impacted by a high-speed projectile has been studied intensively in the past. However, the ejection and shattering process of fragmented particles have not been well resolved yet. To simulate the earlier stage of particle ejection, we performed an analogue experiment of the ejection of aluminum spheres attached on a thin aluminum plate in a row and impinged at tis reverse side by a high-spee plastic cylinder of 51 mm in diameter. The ejection of spheres was observed by using a high-speed digital camera and also holographic interefrometry. These image analysis revealed the motion of ejected spheres.
