A comparison of the behind armour blunt trauma effects between ceramic faced and soft body armours caused by ballistic impact [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Recently published research has characterised the behind armour blunt trauma (BABT) effects associated with high velocity ballistic impact on textile-based armour faced with a ceramic plate. Subsequently dynamic displacements, accelerations and pressures

Simplified simulation of impact bullet - stratified pack for restraining ballistic tests [PDF]

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
This paper presents a macro FEM isothermal model for simulating the impact of a 9 mm FMJ bullet on a stratified packs in order to restrain the preliminary tests for actual stratified packs made of layers of Twaron LFT SB1plus (Teijin), taking into account the friction between layers and between bullet and layers, in order to obtain the number of layers

Computational fluid dynamics simulations of airflow through the nasal passages of rhinolophoid bats

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The nasal passages of bats that emit their echolocation call through their nostrils have adapted for sound emission as well as standard respiratory and olfactory functions. Rhinolophids, hipposiderids and rhinonycterids all use a high duty cycle (HDC) echolocation strategy.

Preventing wall deposition in duct flows: The role of particle number density and flow direction

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Particle deposition in wall‐bounded turbulent flows is a challenge in many industries, including pneumatic conveying, filtration, and related applications. When particles accumulate near boundaries, they reduce transport efficiency, alter near‐wall flow structures, and cause blockage.

Multiscale Modeling of Hole Damage Evolution During Dynamic Installation of Interference Bushings in CFRP

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Multiscale modeling for dynamic installatioin. ABSTRACT The dynamic installation of metal interference bushings has demonstrated significant potential for improving the mechanical performance of carbon fiber‐reinforced polymer (CFRP) joints. However, the underlying mechanisms governing the remaining life enhancement remain insufficiently understood ...
