Research abstract

Skyward, Ltd. proposes an approach for developing a robust analysis method to isolate wave propagation within the fluid of the Aerospace Vehicle Survivability Facility (AVSF) RamGun test device, minimizing wave interaction with the surrounding metallic structure.This analysis method will be used to design improvements to the test device, expanding its capability.The design solution will be robust enough to withstand numerous hydrodynamic ram (HRAM) impact events.Improvements developed during this SBIR will allow for the collection of more accurate HRAM pressure and strain data, which can be used in modeling and simulation of structural skin/joint/spar failures.RamGun improvements derived through this methodology will be useful during future Air Force air platform structural joint integration studies.
