Sentence examples for conical projectile from inspiring English sources

As the air gets thicker on the descent and rushes over the booms, the drag on the vehicle means it naturally adopts a belly-down position ready for the glide back home - just as the feathers always ensure forward-facing flight for the conical projectile used in a game of badminton.

Six small and large sized spherical, cylindrical, and conical projectiles of the same mass are considered.

This paper presents and analyzes the behaviour of TRIP 1000 steel sheets subjected to low velocity perforation by conical projectiles.

At a given striking velocity, the equivalent conical nose projectile produces a similar damage pattern and the same damage level in the RC shielded steel plate, as that of bi-conical nose projectile at the same impact velocity.

The high velocity penetration resistance abilities of unidirectional CFRP laminates and two carbon fibre reinforced aluminium laminates CRALL2/1 and CRALL3/2 (fabricated from T700S CFRP layers combined with aluminium alloy 2024-T3 layers) were evaluated by the ballistic tests with a flat, hemispherical or conical nosed projectile.

A theoretical study is presented herein on the penetration and perforation of fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP) laminates struck normally by conical-nosed projectiles over a wide range of velocities.

In the present study, a simple experiment was designed to simulate a double-wall containment (i) to study the response of RC shielded steel plates against the impact of single (ogive) and double nose (bi-conical) shaped projectiles, and (ii) quantitatively evaluate how much safe the inner wall (steel plate) is under the impact of these projectiles.

The ballistic performance of Glass Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP) composite [0°/90°]s target has been studied against 19 mm diameter conical nosed steel projectiles.

In order to use the available formulation on conical nose shape projectiles, the bi-conical nose was replaced by an equivalent conical nose for which a simple formula was derived.

In this work, an experimental and numerical analysis of the martensitic transformation in AISI 304 steel sheets subjected to perforation by conical and hemispherical projectiles is conducted.

It was found that blunt shapes created a plug during penetration as a result of shearing around the periphery of the projectile, whilst conical tips resulted in minor spalling and fragmentation.
