Abstract

The new numerical approach for analysis of the warhead transportations is suggested. This approach allows to control the warhead operability before its experimental analysis. The approach is implemented by the adequate models for the software ANSYS. Analysis of the loads at land operations and transportations of the warhead by natural roads, water and aviation allows to obtain the maximal values of loads, which are used in numerical simulations of the warhead. These loads give an opportunity to analyze the operability and the fatigue strength of the cartridge warhead. The numerical simulations of the attachments of the warhead combat elements are performed on the basis of the suggested method. The data of the numerical simulations verifies the operability of the fastener system of the warhead combat elements.
