High-speed Penetration Dynamics: Engineering Models And Methods

Autor: Gabi Ben-dor, Tov Elperin, Anatoly Dubinsky

This important monograph is the first comprehensive compendium of engineering models used in high-speed penetration mechanics.The book consists of two parts. The first part (more than a quarter of the book's content) is in fact a handbook giving a ve

Mineral dust emission is a major process in determining the global dust cycle. At a global scale there is still uncertainty about the absolute and relative contribution of dust from different source areas and landforms. Dust sources are mainly consid

New results on ballistic performance of multi-layered metal shields: Review

Autor: Anatoly Dubinsky, Gabi Ben-Dor, Tov Elperin

Publikováno v: Theoretical and Applied Fracture Mechanics. 88:1-8

This survey includes, mainly, investigations that were published during recent years and a few earlier studies that were not included in the review by the same authors published in 2012. The survey covers analytical, numerical and experimental studie

Flat sand beds subjected to wind stress are unstable, and the wind action results in two types of aeolian sand ripples: normal ripples and megaripples. The distinction between the two types is based on two characteristics: i) the normal ripple patter
