Phenomena after meteoroid penetration of a bumper plate
The analysis of hypervelocity impact of particles on a detector in space, with flow and shock penetration through fluid, plastic, and elastic zones was studied. The original paper and computer program on this topic is presented. Improvements in the program for the study of the formation of a cone of debris are discussed. The truncated apex of the cone is at the hole formed by the penetration of an initially spherical rock through a thin plate. A solution for the penetration of the thin plate was sought.
