Proceedings of the Tri-Service Gun Tube Wear and Erosion Symposium, ARRADCOM, Dover, NJ, 25-27 October 1982

Abstract

This volume consists of reprints of the technical papers presented at the In-Service Gun Tube Wear and Erosion Symposium, held at Picatinny Arsenal, Dover, New Jersey, on October 25-27, 1982, but was updated to reflect the current findings. It was the second In-Service Symposium hosted at the Army Armament Research and Development Command (ARRADCOM). forty papers authored by scientists and engineers from the In-Services, Industries, and the Academia, were presented in six sessions, namely: (I) Overview of the Current Properties; (II) Phenomenology and Characterization; (III) mechanisms and Modeling; (IV) Coatings; (V) Liners, Rotating Bands and Design; (VI) Propellants and Additives. This was followed by remarks made by the Chairman of each session stressing the major points made in each session, with identification of the central areas where future R&D efforts should be concentrated. It was intended for this symposium to enhance coordination of activities between the services and industries.
