Abstract :
Large-scale numerical simulations of complex weapon-target interactions help guide experiments, illustrate physical processes, ascertain performance limits, extract transient response characteristics, and augment experimental databases. This article provides an overview of computational terminal ballistics methods and their application to large-scale problems
