Ballistic Testing and Simulation of Co-continuous Ceramic Composite for Body Armour
Co-Continuous Ceramic Composites, referred to as C4, have bi-continuous, interconnected and interpenetrating phases of a metal and ceramic. This bestows such composites with a higher strength to weight ratio compared with traditional composites. In this research work, a C4 composite of AA5083/SiC is fabricated for personal body armour, using gravity infiltration technique. A numerical simulatio...
متن کاملBallistic Resistance Testing Techniques
The Department of Defense conducts ballistic resistance testing to estimate the probability that a projectile will perforate the armor of a system under test. Ballistic resistance testing routinely employs sensitivity experiment techniques in which sequential test designs are used to estimate armor performance. Statistical procedures used to estimate the ballistic resistance of armor in the DoD...
متن کاملBallistic Impact on Ceramic/aramid Armour Systems
The ballistic performance of the lightweight armour systems was examined to obtain an estimate for the V50 and the global damage of the composite plates. All estimates were performed by varying the thickness of ceramic tiles, while maintaining equal areal density of the system. Simulation predictions and trial results is demonstrated both in terms of deformation and damage of the laminates and ...
متن کاملBallistic 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 کاملIs behind armour blunt trauma a real threat to users of body armour? A systematic review.
INTRODUCTION Behind armour blunt trauma (BABT) has been defined as a non-penetrating injury caused by the rapid deformation of body armour. There has been an increasing awareness of BABT as an injury mechanism in both the military and civilian worlds; whether BABT results in serious injuries is debatable. METHOD A systematic review of the openly accessible literature was conducted using the P...
