On the critical thickness of ceramic to shatter WC-Co bullet cores [PDF]
In this paper, the 7.62 mm x 51 mm FFV round consisting of a tungsten carbide core (1550 HV) and copper gilding jacket was fired at silicon nitride, titanium diboride, tungsten carbide and silicon carbide ceramics. Of particular interest is the thickness
