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 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 کاملSpin Transport Goes Ballistic
The circuits in today’s computers, cell-phone cameras, and many other electronic devices rely on the manipulation of electronic charges via CMOS technology—transistors built from a combination of “complementary” metal, oxide, and semiconductor materials. A promising “beyond-CMOS” technology [1] is spintronics, in which information is carried by spin instead of charge. Spintronics devices could ...
متن کاملA Centennial Review of Sub-sonic Transport Aircraft
From Wright Brothers 1903 to present day 2003, aeronautical technology has made a profound progress. This paper demonstrates the outcome of this progress in weight, wing area, and engine thrust in three categories of transport aircraft of short to long range, regional jets, and turbo-prop commuter aircraft. Also the paper includes those aircraft with distinct jump in aeronautical technology. Fe...
متن کاملTowards Ballistic Transport in Graphene
Graphene is a fascinating material for exploring fundamental science questions as well as a potential building block for novel electronic applications. In order to realize the full potential of this material the fabrication techniques of graphene devices, still in their infancy, need to be refined to better isolate the graphene layer from the environment. We present results from a study on the ...
