The damage to the back of the target plate is a phenomenon that occurs when concrete is subjected to high-speed impact. In order to study the motion parameters of prefabricated spherical fragments penetrating finite thickness concrete targets at high speeds and the occurrence rules of concrete damage, as well as the impact of target back damage on the motion of fragments, experiments were conducted on 100 mm finite thickness concrete targets with prefabricated spherical fragments. The concrete model parameters in LS-DYNA were modified based on the residual velocity of fragments, and numerical simulations were conducted on the penetration of prefabricated fragments with different impact velocities and concrete target plates with different thicknesses. By analyzing the location of concrete target plate damage, the relationship between concrete thickness and concrete damage was obtained; Combining the motion parameters of fragment penetration process, the phenomenon of concrete collapse was linked to fragment motion, and the influence of concrete thickness on fragment motion parameters was analyzed. The results indicate that the thickness of the finite thickness concrete target plate and the penetration speed of fragments have a significant impact on the damage state of the target back, and further affect the motion change response stage during the penetration process of prefabricated fragments.
