Fundamentals of Shaped ChargesPresented here is an introduction to the art and science of developing shaped charges. The authors describe the history of shaped charges and the principles governing their design, and give a variety of example applications. The book includes the discussion of Gurney and Taylor methods, jet formation, the visco-plastic model, jet penetration, fabrication, computational aspects, as well as showing the reader how to design shaped charges for different applications. |
