Journal of Applied Mechanics and Technical Physics Aims and scope

Abstract

A series of numerical simulations of the impact of projectiles of different shapes onto massive targets is performed. It is experimentally demonstrated that the dependences of the dimensionless depths of the craters formed by projectiles of different shapes on the dimensionless kinetic energy is described by a unified modeling curve.
