I fully support Adam's thoughts on liquid spurt. This was actually also one of the recommendations for future work identified in a review paper on HRAM, which was recently accepted for publication:

Subject: Survivability Research Ideas and Feedback
Modeling and simulation of hydrodynamic spurt, or the fluid deposition process resulting from projectile impacts of fuel tanks, specifically the liquid jet generated prior to cavity collapse (e.g., "pre-spurt" / "Shallow Jet Spurt").
