Efficient Method to Evaluate Critical Ricochet Angle of Projectile Penetrating into a Concrete Target

In this study, we propose an efficient computation method to estimate the critical ricochet angle (CRA) for oblique penetration into concrete targets which is based on the spherical cavity-expansion theory. During penetrating event, the resistance force on the projectile nose is approximated by semi...
