Modeling and Simulation of Ballistic Impact [PDF]
, 2016 Numerical simulations are increasingly becoming an important tool to obtain efficient designs of protective structures, and the existing literature shows that many phenomena can be accurately described by standard methods and models. This thesis, specifically, focuses on novel methods of modeling and simulating ballistic impact.

Failure simulation of stratified panel under ballistic impact
Journal of Engineering Sciences and Innovation, 2022 "This paper presents an analysis of an isothermal model for an impact simulation in order to use the results for virtually optimizing the thickness of the panel for the same threat. The target has a stratified structure; the connection between layers is ""bonded"", with ""breakable"" detachment when there is exceeded a value for tensile stress and ...
