Question: A HEM 4 4 A 2 1 2 0 mm mortar ( Assuming the explosive body is a cylinder which contains 2 . 6 kg

A HEM44A2120 mm mortar (Assuming the explosive body is a cylinder which
contains 2.6 kg TNT and 10.4 kg steel case) is detonated at 2 m from a heavily
armoured fighting vehicle (AFV) with a profile area of 9 sqm . The normal ground
condition of the detonation location is observed. Assuming 3000 spherical
fragments are generated all from the case. The reflected pressure can be ignored.
Compare the blast damage effects, and the fragmentation damage effects (Use the
sum value of the fragment damage to evaluate the damage) on the AFV.
Please give the calculation procedure (all necessary steps) and the final answer
with very detailed explanation and conclusion.
