On the ballistic performance of metallic materials

Bulletin 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 ...

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

Journal 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.

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

Defence 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

Nondestructive Testing of Welded Composite Metal Foams

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
X‐ray computed tomography (CT) is used to evaluate welded steel–steel composite metal foam (CMF) joints of two density classes. It reports variation in postweld spatial void distribution and correlates it to weld‐induced changes, mechanical performance, and failure within welded CMF panels.
