Analysis of the Behavior of a Penetrator Advancing Through a Guide Surface

The study concerns the transverse deformation behavior of a penetrator surrounded by sabot in deformed gun barrel. In barrel, occurs due to problems such as deflection gravity, or geometric tolerance caused manufacturing process. This causes structural instability and affects out-of-gun barrel movement. addition, safety is affected supporting penetrator. finite element method was used evaluate effect sabot. Deformation stress analysis were performed for moving elastic modulus on studied.
