A Numerical Modelling Framework for Investigating the Ballistic Performance of Bio-Inspired Body Armours

open access: yesBiomimetics, 2023
Biological structures possess excellent damage tolerance, which makes them attractive for ballistic protection applications. This paper develops a finite element modelling framework to investigate the performance of several biological structures that are

Impact of precisely positioned dopants on the performance of an ultimate silicon nanowire transistor: a full three-dimensional NEGF simulation study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper, we report the first systematic study of quantum transport simulation of the impact of precisely positioned dopants on the performance of ultimately scaled gate-all-around silicon nanowire transistors (NWTs) designed for digital circuit ...

Analytic model for the ballistic adsorption of polydisperse mixtures [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We study the ballistic adsorption of a polydisperse mixture of spheres onto a line. Within a mean-field approximation, the problem can be analytically solved by means of a kinetic equation for the gap distribution.

Comparison of Numerical Simulation Techniques of Ballistic Ceramics under Projectile Impact Conditions

open access: yesMaterials, 2021
This article presents an analysis of the effectiveness of available numerical techniques in mapping the characteristic behavior of ballistic ceramics under projectile impact conditions. As part of the work, the ballistic tests were performed on the layered ceramic/steel composite armor and tested with the 7.62 × 39 mm, armor-piercing incendiary (API ...

Ballistic Impact Study of an Aramid Fabric by Changing the Projectile Trajectory

open access: yesFibers
Personal protective systems widely use aramid textile fabrics, whether in soft or rigid form, to protect against various types of ballistic threats. Ballistic impact refers to a high-velocity impact caused by a thrusting source, often involving a low ...

Ultrahigh Ballistic Resistance of Twisted Bilayer Graphene

open access: yesCrystals, 2021
Graphene is a good candidate for protective material owing to its extremely high stiffness and high strength-to-weight ratio. However, the impact performance of twisted bilayer graphene is still obscure.

Characterization of the ballistic limit curve for metallic Whipple shield

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2012
It has been known that space debris or meteoroid impact damage can have significant effects on spacecraft. Experimental test has been conducted up to 7 km/s, and numerical simulations are performed at higher velocities.
