    Undergrad How can I calculate the depth of bullet penetration in different materials?

    Thanks guys. Yeah that is basically my first step. Given a certain material, I just need to calculate the level of penetration for the bullet, or I guess the rate of increase of the drag force upon contact. To start defining some variables, say the bullet is traveling at 4000 feet per second...

    Undergrad How can I calculate the depth of bullet penetration in different materials?

    Hey guys; I am new to the forums. I am an effects artist who's working a Rigid Body Dynamics project and I may be able to use some of you guys' expertise while I'm building these simulations. As I stated above, I'm doing R&D for a deformation system I'm working on. What I want to do is...
