Based on the equivalent principle of kinetic energy absorbed by the target, fragments of various shapes were studied for their capacity to penetrate ordinary light armor. A homogeneous equivalent target plate model should be obtained. Three typical light target plates, single metal target plate, composite target plate, and gap composite target plate are chosen as analysis objects to replicate the penetration process of typical light armor by pieces of various shapes. Examine the impact of fragment shape, fragment landing speed, and target attitude angle on the penetration effect, and talk about the average light armor's capacity to resist piercing through the target plate's damage equivalent thickness under various simulated situations to provide reference for light armor design and damage assessment.
