FRICTION MODELING IN SIMULATING BALLISTIC IMPACT. A REVIEW
This paper presents a review on using friction coefficient in modelling ballistic impact. The are discussed on friction introduced in modelling the impact at different levels: micro (fiber and yarns), meso (woven or unidirectional fabrics) and macro (layered or equivalent monoblock structures).

Glass Fracture Upon Ballistic Impact: New Insights From Peridynamics Simulations
Most glasses are often exposed to impact loading during their service life, which may lead to the failure of the structure. While in situ experimental studies on impact-induced damage are challenging due to the short timescales involved, continuum-based ...
