Abstract
A lot of research work has been conducted on impact and penetration analysis. The penetration studies include various lab and field tests, analytical derivations and numerical simulations. Early works were mainly experimental studies. In the last three decades, analytical and numerical tools have been used increasingly as a substitute for costly experiments. The critical issue in an analytical penetration model is to formulate properly the resultant penetration resistance force applied on the missile by the target medium. The most well-known resistance function is based on the so-called dynamic cavity expansion theory. The theory was pioneered by (1945), who developed the equations for the quasi-static expansion of cylindrical and spherical cavities and estimated forces on conical nose punches pushed slowly into metal targets. Later (1950) and (1960) derived and discussed the dynamic and spherically symmetric cavity-expansion equations for an incompressible target material.
