Abstract

The asymmetric linear shaped charges (LSC) were fired at RHA armor steel, and the experimental results were presented. The jet formation and penetration were simulated with finite-element code LS-DYNA3D. For the linear shaped charge configuration, it is suggested that at the eccentric distance between liner and charge is 1mm, the cratering width increases by 12.2%, while the penetration depth decreases by 58%, compared with the symmetric LSC. When the eccentric distance between liner and charge is 1mm, and the corner between the two axes is 5°, the LSC jet loses its 74% penetration capability. The cratering width increases with the asymmetric extent, while the penetration depth decreases.
