연식주퇴 메커니즘은 전방 운동량으로 주퇴력을 감소시키는 메커니즘이다. 연식주퇴 메커니즘에 영향을 미치는 매개변수는 사격 각도, 복좌기의 초기 압력, 발사위치등과 같이 다양하게 존재한다. 이런 매개변수들은 연식주퇴 메커니즘에서 전방 운동량을 결정짓는 요소가 된다. 연식주퇴 메커니즘의 설계를 위해 몇 가지 적당한 조건들을 고려하여 전방 운동량에 영향을 미치는 매개변수들에 대해 연구하였다. 여러 가지 매개변수들 중에서 복좌기의 초기 압력과 사격 위치가 전방 운동량에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요소로 확인하였다. 복좌기의 초기 압력이 180 일 때, 주퇴력이 가장 낮은 값을 가진다.

The future combat system is likely to be studied and developed in terms of enhancing both firepower and mobility simultaneously. Increased firepower often necessitates a heavier firing system. In return, the body of the vehicle needs to be light-weight in order to improve the mobility of the whole system. For this reason, in the areas of weapons systems such as the tank and self-propelled artillery, a number of studies attempting to develop designs that reduce recoil force against the body of the vehicle are being conducted. The current study proposes a tank construction that has a mass-spring-damper system with two degrees of freedom. A tank structure mounted with a specific soft recoil system that was implemented using a soft recoil technique and another tank structure based on a general recoil technique were compared to each other in order to analyze the recoil forces, the displacements of recoil, and the firing intervals when they were firing. MATLAB-Simulink was used as a simulating tool. In addition, the relationship between the movement of the recoil parts and the positions of the recoil latches in each of the two structures were analyzed. The recoil impact power, recoil displacement, firing interval, and so on were derived as functional formulas based on the position of the recoil latch.

The silencer for the medium caliber gun was studied to reduce the propagation of gun-generated noise from the firing test range to the community. Three types of silencer were made to compare the reduction of sound pressure level and the effect of chamber volume and the exit angle to the reduction of sound pressure was considered. The structural analysis and measurement of pressure in the silencer showed that the structure is safe in terms of strength. The increase of recoil force to buffer must be considered in the development of silencer. The hypothesis test on the muzzle velocity for the existence of silencer showed that there are no difference at the significance level of 0.05.

In this paper, we have studied the characteristics of a perforated muzzle brake. The main purpose of a muzzle brake is to reduce the momentum being applied to the recoil system. Muzzle brake redirect a portion of the exiting gases to the side exerting a forward force on the brake, thus reducing recoil. So it also reduces the recoil force which acts on the turret and vehicle. First of all, we analyzed the flow-field characteristics of muzzle brake using RAMPANT software. Then we investigated the influence of design parameters of perforated muzzle brake. Sixteen muzzle brakes were tested and evaluated for analyzing their influence on the muzzle brake efficiency. The muzzle brakes were designed to fit on a 40mm gun barrel. The strong dependent parameters of muzzle brake efficiency were the wall thickness(L/d ratio) and the area ratio AR. We designed the perforated muzzle brakes which have 10-20% efficiency. And we proposed a design method of perforated muzzle brake.

A low-recoil direct gun is useful in reducing the fire impulse generated by using a traditional shell. To apply a control equation to an AMESim Model, we have formulated a control equation for a recoil mechanism from the free object diagram. By modeling this equation, we have been able to compare the recoil distance and recoil force of a low-recoil direct gun. Here, we can analyze the recoil characteristics between traditional direct guns and low-recoil direct guns with perforated muzzle brakes. It is possible to mount a low-recoil direct gun with a perforated muzzle brake on a lightweight tracked vehicle by reducing its fire impulse.

In the soft recoil system, the recoiling parts are initially accelerated to the forward direction. These parts are returned to original position by the firing with intial acceleration speed. The latch of the soft recoil system keeps the high impact load when the recoil parts were recuperated to the forward direction. In this study, the latch of soft recoil system using the ADAMS program was analyzed. The optimal operation parameters were found that max. angle and expansion length of latch was $50^{\circ}$, 180 mm respectively. Dynamic structural analyses of model cases were performed using finite element model. The max. stress and deflection of latch was 230 MPa and 0.45 mm respectively.
