The liner material is one of the key factors in the design of armor-piercing ammunition that effect the penetration efficiency. The performance of a shaped jet formed by the charge liner is determined by different properties of the material under the blasting action, in particular for the target with explosive reactive armor, which diminishes the penetration power by dispersing the shaped jet. The performance of shaped jet elements from different materials is studied, AUTODYN finite element software and smooth particle hydrodynamics method are employed to simulate the formation of shaped jet elements from the three materials: Cu, PTFE, and PTFE/Cu and their penetration into target plates, which was verified in the experiment. A shaped jet for a Cu liner is shown to be formed under the action of a detonation wave, while PTFE and PTFE/Cu materials generate a dispersive particle jet. The head velocity of a Cu jet is found to be the lowest, the penetration depth is the deepest, and the penetration hole size is the smallest; the velocity of a PTFE particle jet is the highest and the penetration depth is the shallowest, the penetration hole size takes the mid-position; the head velocity and penetration depth of a PTFE/Cu jet take the mid-position, while the penetration hole is the largest. The PTFE/Cu jet possesses higher penetration performance as compared to the PTFE jet, and its hole-opening capability is improved as compared to the Cu jet.

Severe plastic deformation can be produced by repetitive upsetting-extrusion process. Using the repetitive upsetting-extrusion (RUE) process at decreasing temperature, the Mg-12.0Gd-4.5Y-2.0Zn-0.4Zr (wt %) alloy was deformed by different RUE passes and then heat treated. The microstructure, texture and mechanical properties of the alloy were compared and analyzed. The results demonstrate that with the increase of deformation passes, the coarse grains of the alloy decreased, the dynamic recrystallization fraction increased, and the dynamic recrystallized grains phagocytized the original grains. This can promote the continuous refinement of the grains and the microstructure uniformity. The maximum texture intensity of the (0001) basal plane decreased significantly with the increase of processing passes and the dispersion degree of pole figure increased. The orientation of dynamic recrystallized grains was randomly distributed to weaken texture. Due to the refinement of microstructure and the weakening of texture, the tensile strength and yield strength of the alloy obviously increased at room temperature. The mechanical properties of the alloy reached the highest after 3 passes and heat treatment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
