Description

(Эрлинеа Томас Ф., Паттона Брендан Дж., Хатоэйб Алан Ф. Анализ дисперсии бронебойного оперенного подкалиберного снаряда типа XM881). Shock and Vibration. Issue 8. 2001. 183–191 pp.This study compares the results of a dispersion test with mathematical modeling. A 10-round group of modified 25-mm XM881 Armor Piercing Fin Stabilized Discarding Sabot projectiles was fired from the M242 chain gun into a designated target. The mathematical modeling results come from BALANS, a product of Arrow Tech Associates. BALANS is a finite-element lumped parameter code that has the capability to model a flexible projectile being fired from a flexible gun. It also has the unique feature of an automated statistical evaluation of dispersion. This study represents an effort to evaluate a simulation approach with experiment.
