A two and three dimensional simulation package able to predict the behavior of shaped charges and penetrators when interacting with different targets is of great interest in the mining and oil industries. Many of the modules developed for this application will be used in other simulation packages giving us a great tool for simulating industrial processes (drilling, machinery).

There is exceptional opportunity for the commercial application of the facility. The mechanics of munition/target interaction are similar to the mechanics of many industrial and manufacturing processes such as punching, riveting, shot peening, stamping, deep drawing, drilling and high-speed machining. Thus the technology which informs the proposed facility has a clear dual use in a number of commercial applications in the industrial arena.
