Numerical simulation of ceramic composite armor subjected to ballistic impact
Composites Part B: Engineering, 2010Abstract Armor systems made of ceramic and composite materials are widely used in ballistic applications to defeat armor piercing (AP) projectiles. Both the designers and users of body armor face interesting choices – how best to balance the competing requirements posed by weight, thickness and cost of the armor package for a particular threat level.

Influence of Several Parameters on Simulating the Ballistic Impact on a Homogenous Plate
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014This paper presents a simulation of a bullet impact on a plate made of a homogeneous and isotropic material. The developed model takes into account the yield and fracture limits of both involved materials for the bullet and the plate one. The model was developed with the help of Ansys 14.0 and could be used to establish a theoretical value of the plate

Ballistic impact simulation for the safety in tool machines
2012Numerical control (CNC) boring and routing machines use curtains made from resistant, but flexible materials to protect end-users from the projection of tool pieces. These curtains allow the work piece to gently pass through, but have to firmly stop every small sharp piece or fragment ejected by fast drilling tools at the highest speed.
