Penetration mechanisms of non-deforming projectiles into reinforced concrete barriers

Avraham N. Dancygier , David Z.Yankelevsky (Israel)

Abstract

Static and dynamic penetration tests of reinforced concrete (RC) slab specimens are described<br />and discussed. The experimental study was aimed at a better understanding of mechanisms that are<br />involved in dynamic penetration, through their identification in static tests, and by establishing their<br />relative influence in similar dynamic cases. The RC specimens were 80
