Abstract
A long rod projectile is modeled as a free-free Timoshenko beam. While penetrating an oblique thin plate, the yawed projectile is subjected to a transverse point load traveling at a constant speed. The resultin g equations are solved by applying Laplace transformation and numerica l inversion. The effects of the slenderness ratio and the cross-sectio n of the projectile on its transient behavior are studied. (C) 1998 El sevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
