Ballistic 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 کاملFuture Armour materials and technologies for combat platforms
The ultimate goal of armour research is to create better armour for battle worthy combat plat forms such as main battle tanks, infantry combat vehicles and light combat vehicles. In each of these applications, the main aim boils down to one of the two things; either reduce the weight without sacrificing protection or enhance the performance at same or even reduced weight. In practice, these amb...
متن کاملMeasurement of noise and vibration in Canadian forces armoured vehicles.
Noise and whole-body vibration measurements were made in the following Canadian Forces vehicles: LAV III, Bison and M113A2 ADATS (air defence anti-tank system). Measurements were made at different crew positions while the vehicles were driven at different speeds over rough terrain and paved roads. The participants completed a questionnaire at the end of each measurement session on their reactio...
متن کاملBallistic 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 کاملEndothelin antagonists: new bullets against lung injury?
Acute lung injury is a syndrome of inflammation and of increased permeability of the blood-gas barrier. Endothelins are thought to exert proinflammatory effects. Kuklin and colleagues show that the endothelin receptor antagonist tezosentan reduces pulmonary edema in endotoxemic sheep, in parallel with a prevention of protein kinase C-alpha activation. In turn, the level of some cytokines increa...
