Problem 10 - A 2 inch long steel bar impacts a 6 inch thick slab of 4340 steel at 1000 m/s and
bounces off. Assuming the impact is normal and using 1 dimensional hugoniot equations
determine a material type and thickness of a backing material that is required to keep the
interface pressure below 2.5 GPa for the duration of the impact event. For full credit state all of
your assumptions
Use these properties for the steel

Note: use the Cooper text for material hugoniot properties but you may need to research wave
speeds for some of the materials – looking on the internet is fine.
Solution: Since the target and penetrator are the same material, we know that

Recall that the speed of the head of the rarefaction wave is the slope of the p-u Hugoniot curve at
the material pressure. In the notes, an example was written for a left going rarefaction wave. In
our case the slope is the negative of this value which we know.

Now this result may seem strange at first but we need to think it through a bit. we would expect
to see a velocity smaller than but very close to 1 km/s. If we note that we used the right going

So we are good with rubber as the material – now for the thickness. Just to get the data correct
let’s simultaneously solve the equations for the steel and the rubber to find the correct interface
velocity.

Now we can make a simplifying assumption. We know the length of the pulse in the rod was
17.94 microseconds. I know that to get the thickness of the rubber correct I need to use the
shock speed to the free surface and the rarefaction wave speed back to the interface. Since the

Now we can use this value to calculate the gas temperature. If we get 4000 K, we’re done, if not,
we try again using the value we do obtain (or one that’s close).
