Study on Shock Absorb Effect in front Section of Missile Warhead

유도탄 탄두의 전방구조물 완충효과 연구

In anti-ship missile, the seeker and guidance control units are located in front of warhead. When the missile hits target, these structures play an important role to warhead structure like a shock absorber Because the shock waves are attenuated, the survival probability of warhead increases which guarantees the explosive train. In this thesis the role of frontal sections is studies. The theoretical analysis and numerical analyses using LS-DYNA code are performed. To prove the effect of shock absorber, the penetration test using subscale prototype warhead are executed.
