Simulation on a Composite Laminate Subjected to Ballistic Impact [PDF]
A finite element model was developed to study the damage mechanisms of composite laminates under high velocity impact conditions. Modified Hashin failure criteria were used for the fiber breakage prediction. Cohesive elements were defined between two adjacent layers in the target laminate for the prediction of delamination initiation and propagation ...

Failure simulation of stratified panel under ballistic impact
"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 ...

Numerical simulation of ballistic impact on composite laminates [PDF]
Abstract The paper reports experimental and numerical simulation of ballistic impact problems on thin composite laminated plates reinforced with Kevlar 29. Ballistic impact was imparted with simulated fragments designed in accordance with STANAG-2920 on plates of different thickness.

Mechanical behavior of single-layer graphdiyne via supersonic micro-projectile impact
The mechanical behavior of single-layer graphdiyne (SLGDY) subjected to high-velocity micro-ballistic impacts is analyzed by molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The ballistic limits of SLGDY is obtained for the first time.
