The design scheme and fabrication technology of the detonation control system for the high-speed deep penetration need to be tested for reliability and effectiveness through shooting range tests. However, the shooting range tests of the high-speed deep penetration are so demanding and expensive that it is difficult for the detonation control system to be tested many times. This paper focuses on penetration characteristics of the detonation control system to put forward a laboratory-scaled experiment method with the low impact velocity. Independent parameters of projectile and target affecting the penetration characteristics are effectively analyzed and extracted. A multi-parameter programming method of the scaled experiment for high-speed deep penetration is established. By adjusting the key parameters, the loading conditions of the scaled experiment can be obtained, which can get the comparable deceleration curve with those of the high-speed deep penetration. Finally, the extreme working environment for the detonation control system in the high-speed deep penetration is simulated through the scaled experiment in the laboratory. The scaled experiment method can get the comparable deceleration peak and time history. It is highly economical, and the experimental process is also repeatable, which can provide a reliable reference for the protection design into the projectile.

The classical continuum mechanics theory cannot sufficiently describe the effect of pebbles on projectile, which leads to a large calculation error. In this paper, an orthogonal curvilinear coordinate system is constructed, which effectively describes and perfects the normal cavity expansion theory. A couple stress theory based on the normal cavity expansion is proposed in which not only the tangential movements but also the rotations of the concrete medium are considered. According to the high-speed impact of pebble concrete, combined with dynamic equations and the FE simulation, the theoretical and simulation results of pebble particles scale on warhead resistance are compared. It is shown that, the larger the scale of pebble particles, the stronger the effect of rotation on the resistant force applied on the warhead.
