The paper presents a numerical analysis, using the finite element method, for the case of static and dynamic loading of the upper carriage of the remote-controlled combat station, due to the recoil force generated by the operation of the integrated automatic grenade launcher 30mm M93. The paper describes the problem of integrating the BGA 30mm M93 automatic grenade launcher onto the combat platform, and based on the dimensions of the automatic launcher, modeling of the automatic launcher stand with cradle was carried out. As a result of the weapon dynamics equations and internal ballistics calculations, the pressure force of the gunpowder gases and the recoil force of the automatic grenade launcher were calculated. The paper also presents the results of the dynamic analysis of the finite element model of the upper gun carriage loaded with the obtained impulse recoil force for different elevation angles of the weapon.

 

Key words: Remote weapon station, finite element analysis, recoil force, carriage construction.
