On the ballistic performance of metallic materials

open access: yesBulletin of Materials Science, 1997
The paper presents a ballistic performance index for metallic armour materials in terms of the commonly determined mechanical properties such as strength and modulus. The index is derived using an energy-balance approach, where the kinetic energy of the projectile is assumed to be absorbed by the elastic and the plastic deformation involved in the ...

Investigating Ballistic impact on fabric targets with gripping yarns [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The purpose of the research is to investigate the fabric structure (with gripping yarns) in the influence of ballistic performance; therefore to improve the ballistic performance of the current used body armour materials.

Ballistic and physical properties of highly fractured alumina [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
It is known that ceramic materials in armour are often shattered by a penetrating projectile and the resistance to penetration is therefore dependent upon the properties of this failed material.

Study on the protective performance of high-performance multi-scale (SiCh-p+B4Cp)/5083Al ceramic array armor with excellent ballistic properties

open access: yesJournal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023
Ceramic array armor suffers from insufficient constrained capability of ceramic units in the embedded armor structure, leading to weak interfacial bonding at ceramic unit connections, significantly reducing the overall ballistic performance.

Isometric and Ballistic Performance in Canoeing and Weightlifting

open access: yesGazi Beden Eğitimi ve Spor Bilimleri Dergisi, 2023
Weightlifters produce strength and power in the vertical plane, while canoeists produce strength and power in the horizontal plane. The purpose of the study is to examine the difference between isometric strength and ballistic force of athletes in weightlifting and canoeing, at which strength and power production occurs in different planes. 84 athletes

Optimizing the stacking sequence in dual-purpose body armors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Many police body armor systems are dual purpose, offering both ballistic and knife resistanceby combining a flexible ballistic textile pack with a stiffer knife resistant layer.The two types of protection differ in materials and mechanisms such that each

The impact of the coupling relationship between projectile size and yarn dimension on the ballistic performance of plain weave fabric

open access: yesDefence Technology
Aramid fibers, due to their relatively high inter-yarn friction, high strength, high modulus, and other characteristics, have become a typical representative of flexible anti-ballistic materials in modern warfare. Current research on the anti-penetration
