Abstract : The exact solution to the long-rod penetration equations is revisited, in search of improvements to the solution efficiency, while simultaneously enhancing the understanding of the physical parameters that drive the solution. Substantial improvements are offered in these areas. The presentation of the solution is simplified in a way that more tightly unifies the special and general-case solutions to the problem. Added computational efficiencies are obtained by expressing the general-case solution for penetration and implicit time in terms of a series of Bessel functions. Other extensions and efficiencies are addressed, as well.
