Abstract:
Application of linear cutting technique with micro detonation cord( MDC) in penetration ejection system was proposed to improve successful probability of aerial aviator/seat escape system and to reduce aeroplane complexity. Different kinds of MDC were designed. Cutting process of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) plate by MDC was experimentally studied to determine metal cover material, explosive types, charge quantities. Spallation phenomena were observed, and relationship between the cutting depth and charge quantities was obtained. Process of cutting PMMA plate was simulated using nonlinear dynamic analysis code LS-DYNA to compare with the experiment. Relationship of cutting depth of PMMA plate and charge linear density obtained by numerical simulation is in good agreement with the experimental results.

Abstract:
Three failure modes of penetration mechanisms, i.e., Taylor impact, petal-cap failure of Sunflower alike and plugging perforation, of Fragment Simulation Projectiles (FSP), were observed in the experiments of A3 steel blunt projectiles impacting 45 steel plates. Numerical simulations with LS-DYNA was conducted to analyze the various penetration mechanisms and the complicated material failures of projectile and target. Johnson-Cook models of strength and damage-cumulating failure were employed to describe the material behaviors of projectile and target, and adiabatic temperature-rise of local plastic deformation was included in the model. Different failure modes of projectiles and targets reappear in the numerical simulations in the different ranges of impact velocity, which agree well with the experimental observations. It further indicates that the failure mode of plugging perforation is the subsequent result of continuous perforation of projectile after petal-cap failure of Sunflower alike under higher velocity impact.

Abstract:
Two types of ferromagnetic generators were designed. For one type, a cylinder Nd2Fe14B rare-earth permanent magnet was used as working body, and a plane shock wave forms the detonation of the explosives moved in the cylinder along the direction of its axis. For the other type, a ring Nd2Fe14B magnet was charged with high energy explosive in the center hole, and the explosives were initiated with two ends at the same time. The initial magnetic flux distribution of the Nd2Fe14B magnet was simulated by the Maxwell 3D code of the electromagnetic analysis software. The calculating method of the electromotive force from the ferromagnetic generators was given. The detonation tests of generators were carried out. The output current and voltage of generators were measured. The shock wave velocity in Nd2Fe14B magnet was measured. The results show that the ferromagnetic generators designed are capable of producing a high current pulse of up to 1 212 A, with the width of 78.3 s, and the electromotive force obtained is about 67 V/turn.

Abstract:
The features of energy distribution for blasting seismic wave which is short-time non-stationary random signal are analysed by wavelet transform technique. According to the time-frequency characteristic and multiresolution decomposition of discrete wavelet transform, the signal history of blasting seismic wave is expressed by different level reconstructed signals of wavelet decomposition. By using these signals, the relative energy distribution of blasting seismic wave in different frequency bands and the regularity of vibration strength varying with time is obtained. Blasting seismic wave measurement shows that the time-frequency characteristic analysis based on wavelet transform yields more accurate information of blasting seismic wave. The suggested method provides a new approach for analyzing the structural safety under blasting vibration conditions.

Abstract:
Based on action force analysis of slope slice,a calculation method of safety coefficient for slope stability was proposed according to the definition of safety coefficient and the Mohr-Column criteria. Reliability of the proposed method was verified and relation between pseudo-static coefficient under blast seism and safety coefficient on rock mass bedding slope was explained by using calculation examples. Computed results in some engineering cases show that the horizontal and vertical dynamic loads as well as their combined dynamic load make the greatest impact on the safety coefficient for slope stability. When horizontal dynamic load pseudo-static coefficient is added 0.05 from 0 to 0.3,the safety coefficients are reduced 7.801%~10.665% and 7.61%~10.546% respectively for case that the cracked lengths are zero and 12.76 m. When vertical dynamic load pseudo-static coefficient is added 0.05 from 0 to 0.3,the safety coefficients are reduced 1.366%~1.949% and 1.473%~2.289% respectively for case that the cracked lengths are zero and 12.76 m. Slope length, cracked length, combined load action direction have some impacts on the slope stability.

Abstract:
Impact-damage experiments on limestone specimens were carried out on one-stage light-gas gun. Pressure in specimens during shock wave action process was tested by manganin gauge. Impact-damaged and fragmentation properties of lime rock were analyzed by acoustic sounding and splitting cut observation on specimens after shock experiments. Test and analyzed results show that if flyer plate diameter is smaller than that of specimen, the freedom surface of specimen is better, and colliding pressure is 1.0~1.7 GPa, specimen damage has divisional characters with different mechanisms, including head-core space, ring-shape crack area, central section damage space and empennage failure zone. Soft reclaim installation provided a good freedom surface for the side and empennage of specimens, and pull stress made the dominant function for rock damage. Impact-damaged process of rock was numerically simulated using LS-DYNA finite element code to analyze impact-damaged properties of limestone specimens and to validate experimental results.

Abstract:
The experimental research was carried out on the energy output characteristics of insensitive RDX, RDX/Al and SEFAE in the explosion chamber and under water. Numerical simulation was conducted to study the internal blast loading of explosion chamber with flat end using TVD schemes. Strains on several typical positions on the wall of the chamber were measured under the different internal blast loadings. Results show that: (1) In the confined space RDX/Al and SEFAE have after-burning effect; (2) In the experiment condition the biggest blast loading appears at the joint point of flat end and cylinder; (3) Effect of blast loading by SEFAE on explosion chamber is the lowest and those by insensitive RDX and RDX/Al are the same. The compositions of frequencies of strains of different explosives are similar and there is a slight difference of intensity; (4) The structure of blast loading is not the main reason for strain growth.

Abstract:
Based on developed numerical simulation method, the impacting behavior of copper particle colliding copper substrate in process of transforming material property is investigated. The join strength, penetration depth and condition of emerging adiabatic shear instability are discussed with single particle of uniform speed and different angle. It is revealed that with increasing incidence angle, the penetration depth decreases and the join strength is weakened. Adiabatic shear instability will take place when the normal component of particle velocity excesses critical value.
