Test evaluation of shock buffering concept for hydrodynamic ram induced by yawing projectile impacting a simulated integral fuel tankA concept for containing the shock inputs due to hydrodynamic ram caused by an impacting projectile within a fuel cell is discussed. This is to provide a buffering layer of foam, flexible, rigid or a combination thereof, which is sealed from the liquid. A program is described in which this buffering concept was tested. The effectiveness of a novel muzzle-mounted, 'tumble', test device is shown.
