Abstract

A mathematical model for assessing the damage to an aircraft due to blast from conventional ammunition has been developed. The minimum distance of the point of explosion from the aircraft for its permanent damage for a reference explosion has been obtained depending upon the dimensions (thin plate or thin cylindrical shell) of the structural elements.
