Anti-Ballistic Performance of PPTA/UHMWPE Laminates. [PDF]
Poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide) (PPTA) and ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) are high-performance polymer materials largely used for body armor applications. Although composite structures from a combination of PPTA and UHMWPE have been created and described in the literature, the manufacture of layered composites from PPTA fabrics and

Influence of Fumed Nanosilica on Ballistic Performance of UHPCs. [PDF]
This research delves into the potential use of fumed nanosilica in ultra-high performance concrete for ballistic protection. First, the mechanical properties, slump flow, and specific gravity of UHPC with different contents of Aerosil 200 were determined. Then, calorimetric studies were conducted on these cement composites.

A comparison of three post-activation potentiation enhancement warm up strategies on bench press performance [PDF]
BackgroundAt loads greater than 80% of one repetition maximum in bench press, at the ascending phase of the movement, the barbell decelerates or stops for a short time before it accelerates again during a region named sticking region.
