SURVEY OF HYPERVELOCITY IMPACT INFORMATION

Abstract

In the survey of high velocity impact information, a great deal of data was accumulated. Considerable difficulty was experienced in extracting original measured quantities, and originating laboratories were contacted whenever possible to supply tabulated data and additional information concerning material properties and measuring techniques. In some cases, such information was no longer available, and information was extracted from graphical data plots, and material properties corresponding to the material specifications were extracted from handbooks. The collected data are organized and presented under separate headings according to the projectiletarget configuration. (Author)
