Abstract

With AUTODYN-2D code, the formation, flight and penetration processes of sphericity explosively formed projectile (EFP) are simulated. The influence of curvature of liner impose on formation of EFP is studied, and the flight velocity field of EFP is revealed. By analyzing the v-t curve, the attenuation coefficient could be obtained, and then the penetration process of EFP to armor plate are simply analyzed.
