Analysis of Wear Data from 105MM M68 Gun Tubes in Field Service

Abstract

This study was performed to determine mean wear profiles of gun tubes in field service. After determining these profiles, a method of interrelating wear at various locations within the gun tube was developed. This will permit a logical reassessment of tube condemnation criteria, if this is found to be necessary in current testing.
