Abstract
EN Ballistic studies have been the subject of numerous analyses and research activities at the theoretical, experimental, or numerical levels. Many studies related to the perforation problem and impact loading of thin metallic specimens have been presented in the literature. Analytical models like (Recht–Ipson) have previously been developed to determine the relationship between the residual velocity of a projectile and its initial velocity in the case of metal plates. The perforation process of a thin plate by projectiles of different shapes (e.g., flat, hemispherical, or conical) has been analyzed in numerous works with a wide range of analyzed materials: metals and polymers. A list of selected articles in the literature that served as scientific inspiration and were cited in the presented works is provided. It is worth mentioning the names of the authors of fundamental works on the theoretical, experimental, and numerical approach to ballistic tests: Recht, Ipson, Atkins, Borvik, Holmen, Gupta, Clausen, Rusinek, and Jankowiak. This paper focuses on the experimental methodologies used in ballistic testing for dynamic perforation using a pneumatic gas gun. The development of a thermal chamber is presented, designed to improve perforation analysis on different materials and over a wide range of experimental temperatures, from T0 = 293 K to 533 K. Low-temperature perforation tests performed at 113 K (− 160 °C) using an original set-up are also included. In addition, constitutive relations and failure criteria are proposed to contribute to the understanding of perforation phenomena.
