Abstract
This paper describes findings from a series of experiments and computational simulations examining the flight characteristics of ball bearings and their ensuing damage. The results show the influence of ball bearing diameter and mass, charge mass and aspect ratio on the maximum and average ball bearing velocities, the influence of blast wave reflections on ball bearing momentum, and the role of internal pressure reflections on spalling/cracking failure of the ball bearings during flight.
