The influence of projectile hardness on ballistic performance
International Journal of Impact Engineering, 1999The ballistic performance of 17 penetrator materials, representing 5 distinct steel alloys treated to various hardnesses along with one tungsten alloy, has been investigated. Residual lengths and velocities, as well as the ballistic limit velocities, were determined experimentally for each of the alloy types for length-to-diameter (L/D) ratio 10 ...

Processing and Ballistic Performance of Al2O3TiB2 Composites
2008Early research on Al 2 O 3 /TiB 2 composites focused on exploiting their potential as a low cost armor ceramic. Limited ballistic data indicated that the microstructure had a dramatic effect on ballistic performance. In some cases, the penetration resistance of Al 2 O 3 /TiB 2 approached that of monolithic TiB 2 ceramics.

Ballistic performance of composite metal foams
Composite Structures, 2015Abstract The application of advance materials to manufacture hard armor systems has led to high performance ballistic protection. Due to its light-weight and high impact energy absorption capabilities, composite metal foams have shown good potential for applications as ballistic armor.

Ballistic impact performance of metallic targets
Materials & Design, 2012Abstract Performance of metallic targets under ballistic impact loading is presented. The entire ballistic impact event considering target performance can be divided into dynamic plastic penetration, spherical bulge formation, bulge advancement, plug formation and exit and projectile exit. Velocity, displacement, force, deceleration of the projectile

Effect of Microstructure on the Ballistic Performance of Alumina
1971Results of a study of various dense Al2O3 bodies using a 22-caliber fragment simulator are presented showing that there is no significant correlation of ballistic performance with static tensile strength, surface finishes or single crystal orientations.

Adaption of performed ballistic motion
2004This thesis presents a method for adapting performed ballistic motions of a full human figure with many degrees of freedom by using an optimal trajectory formulation and the dynamics derived from first principles. Computation of the joints, torques, and reaction forces allows the application of a number of optimization criteria that result in creation ...
