Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A shaped charge target apparatus and method for using a target composed of synthetic material, thereby allowing for repeatable testing at a variety of density and hardness values.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A shaped charge test apparatus comprising: a first end cap adapted to accept a shaped charge; a second end cap; and a body containing a hollow cylindrical interior holding a plurality of synthetic target discs, wherein the synthetic target discs are composed of sintered metallic powder. 2. The shaped charge test apparatus of claim 1 further comprising a first reservoir within the body contains a first fluid. 3. The shaped charge test apparatus of claim 1 further comprising a second reservoir within the first end cap containing a second fluid. 4. The shaped charge test apparatus of claim 3 wherein a shape charge is oriented to fire through the second fluid and the plurality of synthetic target discs. 5. The shaped charge test apparatus of claim 1 wherein the second end cap has a through opening.
