摘要
Ballistic impact experiments are conducted to investigate high-speed penetration of polycarbonate by steel spheres at impact velocities ranging from & SIM;600 to 2400 m s(-1). High-speed photography is applied to capture the penetration processes, including projectile trajectories and cavity/damage evolution. Postmortem projectiles are characterized with three-dimensional laser scanning, and postmortem targets, with optical imaging and micro computed tomography. The maximum penetration depth varies nonmonotonically with impact velocity i, and decreases with increasing i above about 1777 m s(-1). With increasing nu(i), the damage of polycarbonate targets increases significantly in amplitude and volume. The damage networks, consisting of cracks and voids, exhibit fractal features with similar fractal dimensions. At low nu(i), plate-shaped cracks are formed in the cavity, while needle-shaped cracks along with a large amount of melting-induced small voids, at high i. Numerical simulations of impact penetration of polycarbonate reproduces well the experimental observations. Considering projectile distortion, a modified Poncelet model is derived to describe the nonmonotonic relation between the maximum penetration depth and nu(i).
