Abstract
Results of the three-dimensional simulation of the formation of a shaped-ch arge jet and the piercing of a steel target by a charge with a star-shaped liner are reported. The calculation results show the efficiency of the thre e-dimensional numerical technique TREK-UP used and the possibility of its a pplications to direct simulation of the problem considered. In addition, it is shown that one can optimize star-shaped charges significantly with a vi ew to reaching higher efficiency.
