For weapons designed and manufactured in Vietnam, surveying the loads on the barrel and other gun components during firing is essential. The 14.5mm gun is no exception; a thorough investigation of the barrel stress under pressure during firing is necessary. This paper utilizes the specialized software ANSYS WORKBENCHES to investigate barrel stress under propellant pressure. The results are used to assess barrel strength. Further more, the research findings serve as a reference for students and technical staff interested in this topic.
