Deformation Effects Of Straight Segment Of Flsc To Nearby Plates Due To Varying Backspace Distance

Bingol, Cagin Gorkem 01 September 2004 (has links) (PDF)
The objective of this study is to investigate the detrimental effects of a flexible linear shaped charge (FLSC) to variable thickness back and constant thickness front plates due to varying backspace distance. A FLSC is used to cut both metallic and non-metallic material, quickly and efficiently. It is flexible and may be formed to produce cuts of many configurations, thereby making it particularly useful where more conventional cutting techniques are difficult to employ. While performing its function, the FLSC gives some damage to the back due to the high transient pressure and fragmentation effects. In order to decrease this damage, a steel plate is placed behind the FLSC. In this work, a numerical analysis is carried out by using Autodyn Hydrocode for the investigation of the extent of the plastic deformation of the back as well as front plates for varying backspace distance of the steel plate having different thicknesses. The numerical results are then compared with the experimental findings. The flexibility property of the FLSC is not used in this study. Only the straight segment of FLSC is used.

Visualizations for simulation-based training : Enhancing the evaluation of missile launch events during after-action reviews of air combat simulation / Visualiseringar för simulatorbaserad utbildning : Förbättring av utvärderingen av robotskott under after-action reviews för luftstridssimulering

ter Vehn, Pontus January 2016 (has links)
This thesis work has been part of an effort to improve the after-action reviews of the air combat simulator training sessions conducted at the Swedish Air Force Combat Simulation Centre (FLSC). Initial studies identified three main needs regarding the evaluation of air-to-air missile shots during beyond-visual-range combat simulation. These needs included an improved detection of where and when in the simulation playback a missile shot took place, a collected view of flight parameters to prevent confusion and cross-referencing between the various displays, as well as the ability to review an aircraft’s flight parameters over time in order to discuss alternative shooting opportunities or maneuvering patterns. To fulfill these three needs, design studies were performed iteratively in collaboration with staff at the FLSC. This work has resulted in a design proposal with a prototype based on the design guidelines and recommendations of the study's participants. The purpose of the visualization is to provide support for instructors and promote the individual learning of pilots. Hopefully, this can ultimately help in answering the question regarding why a missile missed its target. For instructors and air units such aids could mean that operating errors can be more easily identified and also form a basis for discussion during the assessment briefings. / Detta examensarbete har haft som syfte att förbättra utvärderingen av luftstridssimuleringar som bedrivs vid det svenska flygvapnets luftstridssimuleringscentrum, FLSC. Inledande studier identifierade tre huvudsakliga behov för utvärderingen av flygplansburna robotskott avfyrade mot luftmål utom synhåll, på långa avstånd. Dessa behov inkluderar en förbättring när det gäller att upptäcka var och när i en simuleringsuppspelning som ett robotskott har skett, en samlad vy över flygparametrar för att förhindra förvirring och korsreferering mellan olika skärmar, samt möjligheten att utvärdera ett flygplans flygparametrar över tid för att kunna diskutera alternativa avfyrningsmöjligheter eller manövreringsmönster. För att fylla dessa tre behov har iterativa designstudier utförts i samarbete med personalen på FLSC. Detta har resulterat i ett designförslag med en prototyp baserad på de designriktlinjer och -rekommendationer som studiens deltagare delgett. Syftet med visualiseringen är att ge stöd till instruktörer och främja piloters individuella inlärning. Förhoppningsvis kan detta i slutändan bidra till att svara på frågan om varför en robot missade sitt mål. För instruktörer och flygförband kan ett sådant hjälpmedel underlätta identifiering av felmanövreringar och även ligga till grund för värdefulla diskussioner under analysen av genomförda luftsstridsimuleringar.
