Description

A pre-trained artificial neural network is provided for predicting the scaled penetration depth P/L of a rod penetrating into a semi-infinite target, based on the rod length-over-diameter ratio L/D, the impact velocity and the density and hardness of the target and projectile materials. The tensorflow keras sequential network is stored as neural_network.h5 in hierarchical data format (HDF5). The script main.py demonstrates an application of the neural network. Alternatively, the notebook main.ipynb or its static version main.html may be consulted.
