Summary: | This paper is devoted to constructing a dynamic numerical model for the firing dispersion caused by the autocannon dynamic characteristics. The buffer dynamics and projectile-barrel coupling are considered. First, the simulation of autocannon firing dispersion using commercial software usually leads to expensive computational costs. Second, autocannon dynamic design includes multiple subsystem models with nonlinearities. The conventional design method makes it difficult to describe the dynamic response of such complex systems with a unified model. To end these, a dynamic junction bond space method is proposed for analyzing muzzle vibration and firing dispersion under continuous firing loads, where the gene expression programming (GEP) method is adopted to construct the surrogate model for the buffer flow field. For the coupling analysis of the projectile and barrel, the projectile load is applied at a moving junction, which coincides with the flexible node of the barrel. By this, the dynamic numerical model for autocannon firing dispersion is established, and then the system state equation is obtained for each time step. Moreover, an autocannon standing target shooting example is presented to demonstrate the validity of the proposed method; the results show that the firing dispersion from the bond space model is consistent with the test.
