Cavity expansion is a method for modeling the penetration of an axisymmetric or wedge-shaped solid body--a penetrator--into a target by using analytic expressions to capture the effects of the target on the body. Cavity expansion has been implemented as a third-party library (CavityExpansion) that can be used with explicit, transient dynamics codes. This document describes the mechanics of the cavity expansion model implemented as a third-party library. This document also describes the applications interface to CavityExpansion. A set of regression tests has been developed that can be used to test the implementation of CavityExpansion in a transient dynamics code. The mechanics of these tests and the expected results from the tests are described in detail
