The Waveshaper Effect on Ta-MS Multiliner Explosive Formed Pojectile with Tantalum as Penetrator and Mild Steel as Stabilization Base

Numerical simulation was carried out using Autodyn 2D code to study the formation and tandem behavior of multiliner EFPs (Explosively Formed Projectiles). The main aim of multiliner configuration is to develop tandem behavior and to increase the length of explosively formed projectile in differen...
