N2 - Based on the dynamic spherical cavity expansion(SCE) theory of the concrete materials and the analysis of the experimental data, both the model of the petaling penetration with low speed and the model of the round hole penetration with high speed are constructed to describe the penetration of the grooved-tapered projectile in this paper. The penetration depth and the mass abrasion are calculated using the models, so are the change of the velocity and the acceleration of the projectile with the time in the stage of the low speed penetration. The results show for the grooved-tapered projectile penetrating the concrete, the error of the penetration depth and the mass abrasion between the theoretical value calculated using the petaling penetration model and the experimental data is less than 11%, when the initial velocity is lower than about 1000m/s. When the initial velocity is higher than about 1000m/s, the error of the penetration depth between the theoretical value calculated using the round hole penetration model and the experimental data is more than 20%, and the mass abrasion calculated is almost coincide with the experimental data. The research shows the models are suitable for the analysis of the grooved-tapered projectile penetrating the concrete target, and the grooved-tapered projectile is more valuable in the high speed penetration.
