Biophysical Assessment and Predicted Thermophysiologic Effects of Body Armor
INTRODUCTION Military personnel are often required to wear ballistic protection in order to defend against enemies. However, this added protection increases mass carried and imposes additional thermal burden on the individual. Body armor (BA) is known to reduce combat casualties, but the effects of BA mass and insulation on the physical performance of soldiers are less well documented. Until re...

15 صفحه اولTask-specific effects of modular body armor.
Eleven recreationally active males performed 11 circuits of military work, wearing torso armor on one occasion, and full armor on another. Performance was measured by the time taken to complete individual tasks, and the overall time to completion (TTC) for each circuit. Heart rate, intestinal temperature, ratings of perceived exertion (RPE), and thermal sensation were recorded after each circui...
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...
