Impact Behavior of the Ballistic Targets Package Composed of Dyneema Polymer and High Entropy Alloy Structures [PDF]
Archives of Metallurgy and Materials, 2022 Ballistic targets are multi-material assemblies that can be made of various materials, such as metal alloys, ceramics, and polymers. Their role is to provide collective or individual ballistic protection against high-speed dynamic penetrators or kinetic ...

Resistance to the ballistic impact of doped zirconia [PDF]
WIT Transactions on The Built Environment, 2008 In the 1950s, with the appearance of oxide ceramics (Al203, ZrO2, BeO, MgO), ceramic materials started to arouse researchers’ interest. In 1975 Garvie and et al. originated a new family of ceramics based on the addition of zirconium oxide. In this work the mechanical properties and the penetration of a ballistic impact zirconia and alumina were studied
