Description
PROTECTIVE CABLE NETS SYSTEM (PCNS) FIELD OF THE INVENTION: [Para 1] The present invention relates to the field of defense systems.
More particularly, the present invention relates to a system for blocking ballistic and direct hit munitions and drones.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION AND PRIOR ART: [Para 2] Munitions such as antitank missiles, rockets, shells, bomblets, and other artillery or explosive objects are used and often fired by army units or terrorist organizations into urban areas, critical facilities and military zones. Drones, with or without explosives that can shoot and drop bombs and may penetrate the aerial perimeter of the mentioned areas and zones. There is a great need for protection of several specific zones from these fired objects and drones. Another example of such zones are zones that have special installations, infrastructures, arsenal, and populated areas.
[Para 3] US 2010/0102166 relates to an apparatus and method of missile interception. The missile interceptor comprises a net body with a plurality of sections and at least one missile trajectory effector, preferably an exploding ring. A missile, passing through the net body, picks up the ring, which explodes once the missile passes a sufficient distance away from the missile interceptor.
[Para 4] WO 2008/114261 relates to a barrier, wherein the barrier is an upwardly immobilized barrier (UIB) comprising a barrier, comprising at least one netting adapted to avoid or hinder penetration of actuated members, and at least one balloon immobilizing the netting from the nettings top portion.
[Para 5] US 2010/0294124 relates to a device and a method for protecting objects against rocket propelled grenades having a hollow nose cone including a netting of knotted and coated super strong fibers disposed in front of the object, in such a manner that the nose cone of a rocket caught in the netting will penetrate one of the meshes of the netting and be deformed through strangulation, thereby disabling the detonator.
[Para 6] Analysis of Geometrically nonlinear Structures, Second Edition, Chapter 7 - CABLE NETS AND FABRIC STRUCTURES; by Robert Levy and William R. Spillers; 2003 Kluwer Academic Publishers; pages 151-186, relates to cable nets and fabric structures formed by tailoring portions thereof.
This publication gives the background of the calculations and design of the hereunder described invention.
[Para 7] The design of three-dimensional doubly curved spatial cable nets and fabric structures can be described in terms of three events: shape finding, analysis, and patterning. Simpler cases of three-dimensional singly curved or plane structures are a rather trivial matter. In the process of shape finding, the designer specifies a set of parameters and then computes other parameters finally resolving the details of the shape of the structure. Under analysis, loads are applied to a structure whose shape is known and the response to these loads computed. Patterning is concerned with how a curved surface is to be formed from rolls of fine cable nets, fabric or soft membranes, solid membrane plates and cables.
[Para 8] The process of shape finding can be thought of roughly in terms of stretching a cable net, fabric, or a membrane over a frame of arbitrary shape. (For example, in the skylight problem of Figure 8A, the geometry is fixed along both crossed arches and the base.) Clearly the cable net, fabric or membrane must follow the frame at the boundaries and certain tensions can be specified on these boundaries. But just as clearly, the locations of the cable net, fabric or membrane points within the frame must be determined from the equations of equilibrium and in some cases the material parameters. Finding the locations of these internal points is the process of shape finding.
[Para 9] In the early days (Frei,1973) and in the absence of the computer, physical models were commonly used in the design of fabric structures and cable nets. It is now conventional wisdom that small-scale models are not sufficiently accurate either for the prediction of forces or the patterning of the cable nets or the fabric.
[Para 10] If needed to find a shape which is in equilibrium, this can be done by applying loads to, for example, a stretched elastic sheet and then using the deformed sheet or a scaled version of it as the shape. There is nothing wrong with doing so but care is required since loads applied to a sheet may introduce stress concentrations which may not be desired in the structure under design. The basic reference to this method is Argyris, et al. (1964).
[Para 11] Any computer program for nonlinear structural analysis can be used to achieve shape in this manner but it does not appear common to do so. Pertinent to this is the fact that the cable nets, fabrics, or membranes now commonly used in permanent structures cannot tolerate large strains without tearing.
[Para 12] It has been noted by Schek (1974) that if the ratio of the bar force to its length is held constant in a cable net, the associated geometry can be found by solving a system of linear equations. (A similar statement can be made for a finite element fabric or membrane model.) This approach is frequently used in the design of fabric, membrane or cable net structures.
[Para 13] The force density method is based on the fact that the force on the end of a truss bar can be represented by the product of the bar force and a unit vector in the direction of the bar as shown in Figure 8AB. Here i n is the unit vector of member i, iF is the bar force of member i, and iL is the length of member i. The components of the force vector can be written as ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) ( )C A C A C A Z ZLF Y YLF X XLF izi iyi ixi - = - = - = i i i F F
