Abstract

An experimental system is developed to determine the main parameters of the impact and penetration of a solid deformable body into a soft soil medium. This system is based on the technique of an inverse experiment with a measuring rod and the technique of a direct experiment with photo recording and the application of a shadow picture of the interaction of a striker with a soil target. To verify these techniques, the collision of a solid body with soil is studied by a numerical calculation and the time intervals in which the change of the resistance force is proportional to the penetration velocity squared are determined. The penetration resistance coefficients determined in direct and inverse experiments are shown to agree with each other in the collision velocity range 80–400 m/s, which supports the validity of the techniques and the reliability of measuring the total load.
