Dispersion of Substances and Calculation of the Crater Depth in High‐Velocity Impacts

  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

A hydrodynamic model of the process of dispersion of bodies in high‐velocity impacts is considered. The depth of craters formed on impact of bodies against a semiinfinite surface is calculated. The possibility of applying the results obtained to the superdeep‐penetration effect is discussed.
