Delamination failure analysis of G10 insulator in electromagnetic rail launcher
AbstractThe electromagnetic (EM) rail launcher G10 insulator is prone to delamination damage during launch, which affects the service life of the insulator. Through the secondary development of ABAQUS® commercial finite‐element software, an EM‐structure coupling launch dynamics model considering projectile‐barrel coupling is established. The simulation
