Disturbance of shaped charge jets by bulging armour
Two flash X-ray pictures of the passing jet after a bulging armour are presented which give the disturbance effect to the jet - some earlier particulation time and iterative jet eruptions - but only after some time delay. The analysis of the jet velocities of the eruptions allows to calculate the time intervals or roughly the disturbance frequency of the used bulging armour arrangement.
