Ballistic Body Armor
P O L Y M E R S Our goal is to prevent the catastrophic failure of ballistic body armor by developing measurements and predictive models to test and determine the long-term reliability of polymers used in ballistic resistant armor. Our approach, which utilizes conventional analytical techniques in addition to newly developed minimally invasive test methods, seeks to identify the chemical and me...
متن کاملAnalysis of behind the armor ballistic trauma.
The impact response of body armor composed of a ceramic plate with an ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber-reinforced composite and layers of UHMWPE fibers shielding a block of ballistic gelatin has been experimentally and numerically analyzed. It is a surrogate model for studying injuries to human torso caused by a bullet striking body protection armor placed on a person. Pho...

We analyze three-dimensional (3-D) deformations of soft body armor in the form of a clamped rectangular plate impacted at normal incidence by a projectile. Results have been computed by the finite elem...
متن کاملCharacterization of Mechanical Properties Displayed in Body Armor Ballistic Fibers
The current body armor systems manufactured using ballistic fibers are not performing as theoretical results predict and are causing injuries. The actual maximum projectile penetration speed that the body armor can endure is significantly lower than the theoretical maximum speed, thus causing a costly build-test relationship that is not aided with modeling design efforts. The main aim of this r...
متن کاملEffects of Ballistic Extremity Armor on Joint Kinematics during Gait
In addition to the standard armor vest, the U.S. military has been issuing ballistic armor designed to protect the arms and legs. Some of these extremity armor systems allow for scalable protection, providing soldiers with increased ballistic armor coverage when deemed necessary by adding additional components that protect the forearms and shanks to the upper arm and thigh components with hook ...
