An Investigation of the Effect of Target Temperature on Projectile Penetration and Cratering
Description:
Results regarding testing of steel projectiles fired into copper targets at velocities from 5,000 to 11,500 feet per second, which indicated that as target temperature is increased, the crater size also increases. Twenty-two caliber steel cylinders and steel spheres were used as projectiles.
