Chapter 1120 Capped Armor-Piercing Projectile
Of course, nodding back and letting them really ask questions is simply impossible. These five guys are originally second-rate in the clan, and they are neglected in magic research on weekdays. It is difficult for them to explain a forbidden spell clearly. How can they have the level to participate in the current discussion?
Although the questions raised by these elders and lords are not difficult at present, they can only be said to be at the level of high school students, but for the Dragon Clan who have never been exposed to this kind of knowledge, the development of "from point to surface" is almost instinctive. Krups just listened to the function of calculus, and immediately extended to the problem of "calculation of irregular surfaces" when constructing illusion spells.
It has to be said that compared with basic algorithms, calculus is a very powerful tool. Calculating the curved surface is one aspect. Any continuous change problem encountered in the construction of spells can be solved by calculus. Compared with the stupid method used by the lords and elders before, this college student "advanced mathematics" has learned something. It's the difference between cloud and mud!
After all, this is a calculation method that can be applied in mechanics, astronomy, chemical and biological engineering, and even economics. When Krups saw it at this time, his eyes lit up immediately, and he couldn't put it down.
"If it's really so easy to use...then the problem we just talked about, I'm afraid it will be easy to solve."
Although the black dragon has a violent temper, the strength of the lord Pucastor is not empty talk. After listening to Kardashian's explanation for more than ten minutes, he was the first to think of what they had just discussed at the meeting.
"Ah, what you said is indeed true. With this calculation method, the improvement in spells may be leaps and bounds."
An elder responded immediately, the IQs of the people present were far beyond the comparability of college students in a book.
After hearing this, Rody asked Victor beside him: "The lord has encountered a problem? Can you talk about it?"
"It's not inconvenient." Victor was thinking about the application of calculus at this time, and when he heard his question, he replied casually: "We were discussing the problem of the devil's carapace before, because the devil Barty After getting bigger, the strength of the carapace far exceeds our estimate. Most spells...including your spar cannon can hardly penetrate his armor. In order to deal with this situation, we are now discussing the most effective way to use it against this protection.”
Hearing his words, Kardashian and the others looked at each other strangely, but did not speak. The black dragon lord was impatient, seeing their expressions, he immediately asked, "Why, are you also studying this?"
"To be honest, the 'Strategic Weapons Research Department' is also studying...uh, a similar topic."
Kardashian originally wanted to say "same", but immediately realized that it was inappropriate to say so, so she hurriedly said "similar". She was afraid of causing some misunderstanding, but she underestimated the capacity of these lords and elders—they are not the ones who need to cheat funds in scientific research institutes. Hearing Kardashian's words, she was immediately curious: "That... is it convenient to share the results? ?”
After saying this, the five honorary elders collectively looked at Luo Di, because this matter was brought up by Luo Di casually a few days ago, and whether it is made public depends on his intentions. As the person in charge of the research institute, the Prime Minister was stared at by so many people, so he replied calmly: "Of course there is no problem. Naturally, we also hope that the lords and elders can give some advice."
There was nothing wrong with saying this before, but now, the elders all understand that he is being modest—in terms of research level alone, the scattered information just displayed is already scary enough.
Kardashian then turned the blackboard over, and everyone discovered that the other side was also full of handwriting, and there were several schematic diagrams at the same time. Stiga took out several models from the cabinet on the other side of the laboratory... Judging from the shape, this is another form of "armor-piercing projectile", but it is different from the small model that Rody prepared for the "spar cannon" before. The caliber "armor-piercing projectile" is different. After the current model is scaled up, the volume is at least one meter long.
In other words, it has similar specifications to the "anti-tank armor-piercing projectile" on the earth.
Not to mention its shape and structure, it only took a few minutes to explain what this thing is used to launch. For this reason, Rody reassembled the spar cannon and showed them: "We first developed a turret that uses The armor-piercing projectiles launched, in the future, based on this achievement, we will study long-range armor-piercing missiles..."
"Prime Minister, we all know that your spar cannon is powerful, but now the problem of the carapace is a headache—" Pucasto used the earth element to condense a hemispherical surface on the spot: "For this kind of curved carapace, whether it is The spell or your cannonball has a high probability of bouncing off, and the power may be greatly reduced by half. Simply making the cannonball so sharp may not be effective."
Luo Di glanced at this question and smiled slightly: "It just so happens that the research of several honorary elders is to solve this problem."
He took a step back, leaving the stage to Kardashian and others behind him. The five of them discussed in low voices, and then each of them started to take charge of one piece, explaining the subtleties of this "armor-piercing bomb" in order.
In fact, the model in front of you is just the core warhead part of the armor-piercing projectile—that is, the armor-piercing projectile core made of high-strength, high-density metal. And as a few people temporarily condensed the "shell" with elements, the elders and lords finally understood what the so-called "capped armor-piercing bullet" was all about.
This is actually to wrap a softer "blunt head" on the outside and front end of the core. Under this structure, when the front end of the armor-piercing projectile hits the target, the softer part will cause some damage to the armor. Deformation occurs at the same time, and during the deformation process, the incident angle of the entire armor-piercing projectile will change accordingly—under the action of force, the high-strength projectile core at the rear will hit the target at a more vertical angle, thereby reducing Chance of being "bounced off".
This is the most widely used anti-tank armor-piercing projectile structure during World War II on the earth, because it has the lowest technical content, but it is so effective that it is still used by tanks in many countries.
Luo Di is not a military fan, but he has a wide range of interests. He saw this thing on Weibo. At that time, he just thought it was a novelty, and he didn't remember the specific model or structure. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that he couldn't tell how many types of armor-piercing bullets there were, but he still remembered the basic principle of capped armor-piercing bullets—with this as a guiding direction, Kardashian's research progress was naturally fast.
After hearing the explanation, the elders of the lords were dubious one by one: the warheads made of different materials can be automatically aligned?
However, this group of cutting-edge people is not worried that the theory cannot be verified. On the spot, Pucasto directly assembled an approximate warhead by agglomerating earth elements of different densities, while Victor used a frost shield to simulate a carapace with a curvature.
