Abstract | ||||
ABSTRACT Paper considers model of shock loads dumping during launching by using the wire rope absorber. Loadings are generated and initiated by shock forces, appeared as reaction of nozzle gases at muzzle velocities conditions on the Multiple Launch Rocket System (MLRS). Dumping of impulse loadings could be realized by design of wire rope absorber tested and represented in this paper. Absorber is typical nonlinear, no periodical dumper. Experimental model of absorber is tested by equipment able to simulate approximations of real launching forces. Different short time dynamical loadings are approximated with linear and harmonic functions as initial shock and unsteady forces. Relations between initiation shock forces and response forces at the exit of wire rope absorber are compared experimentally by results tested in real time. Results presented in the paper shows force-time performances and possibilities for application of new ring designed of wire rope absorber used at MLRS combat platforms. | ||||
