Hogan, James, Spray, John, Rogers, Robert, Boonsue, Suporn
The dynamic fragmentation of granite at impact energies of 6–28 J is examined in this paper. Results indicate that more dense materials, or those with a higher quartz content, produce less fractured mass, and have larger dominant fragment sizes and smaller aspect ratios in their fragment...

Dynamic Fragmentation of Natural Ceramic Tiles: Ejecta Measurements and Kinetic Consequences
Download2013
Vincent, Gregory, Rogers, Robert, Spray, John, Schneider, Markus, Hogan, James
Velocity and size measurements of ejecta derived from impacts of railgun-launched projectiles into 10 mm thick gabbro tiles are examined. Fragmentation of the target and the ejecta velocity field are found to be governed by Hertzian fracture and the transfer of kinetic energy to the target. Over...

Dynamic Fragmentation of Planetary Materials: Length Scale Quantification and Semi-Analytical Modelling
Download2013
Rogers, Robert, Spray, John, Hogan, James
The dynamic fragmentation of planetary materials during impact into finite targets has been examined. A particle tracking algorithm was implemented to estimate the size and velocity of fragments ejected from the rear of the target. A total of 76 experiments were performed for four material,...

Dynamic Fragmentation of Planetary Materials: Sub-Hypervelocity Ejecta Measurements and Velocity Scaling during Impact Testing
Download2013-01-01
Hogan, James, Vincent, Gregory, Spray, John, Rogers, Robert, Schneider, Markus
Ejecta velocity measurements were made during impacts into solid planetary materials. Ejecta velocity fields overlie each other when normalized by vmax, v50%mass, and v50%KE; these correspond to the maximum velocity and median values of mass and kinetic energy among ejecta velocities....

Papitashvili, V., Clauer, C. Robert, Kabin, Konstantin, Gombosi, Tamas I., DeZeeuw, Darren L., Rankin, Robert, Marchand, Richard, Ridley, Aaron J.
In this paper we use a three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model to study the response of the magnetosphere-ionosphere system to a sudden change in the sign of the By component of the interplanetary magnetic field. We find that after such a change the magnetosphere responds as a linear...

The dynamics of a fully nonlinear, tree-structured resonator and its response to a broadband forcing of the branches is examined. It is shown that the broadband forcing yields a transfer of energy between the parts of the spectrum so that the spectrum becomes progressively more narrow-band for...
