We derived equations for the target-strength term used in the modified hydrodynamic model that describes long rod penetration into ceramic targets. Since ceramics have tensile strengths that are usually an order of magnitude lower than their compressive strength, this model allows for tensile cracking. In addition, our model includes the effect of pressure-dependent shear strength.
