Polyimide aerogels for ballistic impact protection. [PDF]
AbstractThe ballistic performance of edge-clamped monolithic polyimide aerogel blocks (12 mm thickness) has been studied through a series of impact tests using a helium-filled gas gun connected to a vacuum chamber and a spherical steel projectile (approximately 3 mm diameter) with an impact velocity range of 150–1300 m s−1.

A machine learning model for predicting the ballistic impact resistance of unidirectional fiber-reinforced composite plate. [PDF]
It has been a vital issue to ensure both the accuracy and efficiency of computational models for analyzing the ballistic impact response of fiber-reinforced composite plates (FRCP). In this paper, a machine learning (ML) model is established in an effort

Myocardial Contusion Due to Ballistic Impact Force. [PDF]
Myocardial contusion typically occurs from blunt cardiac trauma often due to motor vehicle collisions and falls from a significant height. Gunshot wounds may cause compression and stretching of tissue from the sonic pressure waves that precedes the bullet.

Alumina and low density polyethylene composite for ballistics applications
The efficiency of alumina and low-density polyethylene (LDPE) composites in ballistic applications was investigated. Different concentrations of alumina were studied, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90 wt.%. The ballistic tests were carried out at subsonic speed using a

Response to Ballistic Impact of Alumina-UHMWPE Composites [PDF]
The response to ballistic impact of alumina-ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) composites with different relative concentrations of alumina was investigated. The impact tests were carried out at subsonic speed using a compressed air system.

Modeling and simulation of impact behavior of 3D woven solid structure for ballistic application
This study was carried out to understand and evaluate the response of 3 D woven fabrics upon the simulated ballistic forces. Under the low-velocity impact, analytical and numerical models were developed for determining the impact energy, which was used ...

Impact response and ballistic performances of graphitic foams [PDF]
The demand for low weight structures that can achieve different structural, thermal and safety results is increasing in multiple engineering applications. Graphitic foam, due to its low density, relatively easy machine tooling, stiffness and homogeneity can be a good choice for sandwich panel filling. Moreover, in spite of its brittle general behaviour,
