Abstract:
ABSTRACT A massless particle can be naturally captured by a celestial body with the aid of a third body. In this work, the influence of the mass ratio on ballistic capture is investigated in the planar circular restricted three-body problem (CR3BP) model. Four typical dynamical environments with decreasing mass ratios, that is, the Pluto–Charon, Earth–Moon, Sun–Jupiter, and Saturn–Titan systems, are considered. A generalized method is introduced to derive ballistic capture orbits by starting from a set of initial conditions and integrating backward in time. Particular attention is paid to the

Abstract:
In order to measure capture performance of the seeker in the typical terminal guidance scene under HPM damage effect, the paper proposes a new method to model the dynamic capture state in different ballistic position. The proposed missile-target geometry count can be used to process multiple data generated in multiple Monte Carlo simulations under the same scene, which facilitates capture performance comparative analysis between different scenes. Simulations validate proposed counting measure, so that it can be applied for measuring the performance of missile capture.

We used a ballistic range (one-stage light gas gun), and the test specimens were set at 0°obliquity at room temperature. A high-speed camera allowed us to capture and analyzed

Abstract:
Recently, high-performance hybrid composites have been used for various applications which require the high strength, high stiffness and low weight. There are growing needs in an automotive, an aircraft, and military applications for composite materials since they have good structural characteristics. They also have good penetration resistance and structural integrity after impact. In order to clarify the mechanism of high-speed destruction for composite materials, this study examined the penetration resistance and the fracture behavior of CFRP (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) Laminates by us

Abstract:
The use of high-speed puncture mechanics for prey capture has been documented across a wide range of organisms, including vertebrates, arthropods, molluscs and cnidarians. These examples span four phyla and seven orders of magnitude difference in size. The commonality of these puncture systems offers an opportunity to explore how organisms at different scales and with different materials, morphologies and kinematics perform the same basic function. However, there is currently no framework for combining kinematic performance with cutting mechanics in biological puncture systems. Our aim here is

Abstract:
Abstract A spherical cavity expansion model for concrete is first proposed by using an elastic-brittle-plastic material law with Hoek–Brown strength criterion. The constitutive model can capture the basic features of the mechanical response of concrete materials including the effects of strain-softening and pressure hardening (pressure-dependent shear strength) and all the parameters used in the model can be determined from material tests. The forcing function obtained from the spherical cavity expansion analysis is then employed to construct a penetration model for concrete targets struck by

Abstract:
SUMMARYChameleons capture prey items using a ballistic tongue projection mechanism that is unique among lizards. During prey capture, the tongue can be projected up to two full body lengths and may extend up to 600 % of its resting length. Being ambush predators, chameleons eat infrequently and take relatively large prey. The extreme tongue elongation (sixfold) and the need to be able to retract fairly heavy prey at any given distance from the mouth are likely to place constraints on the tongue retractor muscles. The data examined here show that in vivo retractor force production is almost con

Abstract:
Purpose – In the present work, a new blast-/ballistic-impact mitigation concept is introduced and its efficacy analyzed using advanced computational methods and tools. The concept involves the use of a zeolite protective layer separated by air from the structure being protected and in contact with a water layer in front. The paper aims to discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach – To properly capture the attendant nano-fluidics phenomena, all the calculations carried out in the present work involved the use of all-atom molecular-level equilibrium and non-equilibrium molecular-dynamics

Abstract:
Molecular dynamics simulations of the rigid-anvil collision test are performed by using a two-dimensional computational setup that mimics the traditional ballistic Taylor test. In this extensively utilized computational setup, the slender nanoscale projectiles collide with a rigid wall with hypersonic striking velocities ranging from 3 km/s to 30 km/s. The projectiles used in these simulations are flat-ended, monocrystalline, nanoscale bars prepared at zero temperature. The Poisson hyper-exponential distribution with the logarithmic binning is used to capture the fragment mass (size) distribut
