SPLIT-X

SPLIT-X is an expert system for the design and assessment of fragmenting warheads. Natural or controlled fragmentation of an explosive filled casing can be studied with SPLIT-X. In contrast to complex finite element codes, SPLIT-X is based on analytical procedures and engineering approximations which are calibrated by experimental results. Therefore, the tool requires relatively little computing time and provides the results within a few seconds.

SPLIT-X can be used for various applications in defense engineering:

  • Generation of a reliable warhead design
  • Calculation of input data for vulnerability models
  • Design of structural elements to protect vehicles or buildings

 

SPLIT-X contains several unique algorithms like:

  • 3d Gurney-Method for the calculation of fragment velocities
  • Models of multiple and/or asymmetric initiation
  • Mass and shape models of natural fragments
  • Optimization based on setting boundary conditions and defining performance requirements
