The paper presents experimental test of mine flail structure designed for a prototype of the Shiba special military
vehicle. The Shiba vehicle is equipped with such structure to neutralize mine and IED threats which are one of the
most harmful weapons used during modern warfare and peacekeeping missions. The experimental test was performed
by the Military Institute of Engineer Technology and the Military University of Technology. The test procedure was
based on NATO standards. Detonation of 8 kg TNT AT mine under wheel of the prototype was taken into consideration
as a case of possible load during mine clearance operation on the battlefield. The test procedure included deformation
measurements of selected parts of mine flail structure. During the tests, strain gauges and camera markers were
placed on the structure to allow recording of strains and observation of the specific construction point’s movements.
The motion was recorded using three high-speed Phantom cameras. Vishay EA-06-120LZ-120 strain gauges with
ESAM Traveler bridge with sampling rate 100 kHz were used for strain measurements. The test was performed on
military proving ground. As a result, strain versus time plots were obtained. The results were processed using ESAM
software. Strain gauges were placed paired in specific structure points. High-speed camera recordings were obtained
to visualize the process of structure response. The sequences of selected frames are shown. Pictures of deformed
structure are presented.
