Abstract

Analysis of experimental data using theoretical models reveals that a very small portion of a shaped charge jet particle’s kinetic energy shocking the air in front of it can couple convectively into the particle’s leading surface to soften an already hot material enough to justify hydrodynamic modeling of the air cratering process.
