The design of mosaic armour: the influence of tile size on ballistic performance [PDF]

, 2008
Silicon carbide square tiles of different areal geometries and manufactured via two different processing routes have been bonded to polycarbonate layers to evaluate their ballistic performance.

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

, 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.

Synergistic approach of asteroid exploitation and planetary protection [PDF]

, 2012
The asteroid and cometary impact hazard has long been recognised as an important issue requiring risk assessment and contingency planning. At the same time asteroids have also been acknowledged as possible sources of raw materials for future large-scale ...

Ballistic behaviour of explosively shattered alumina and silicon carbide targets [PDF]

, 2011
The resistance offered by three ceramic materials of varying strength that have been subjected to explosive loading has been investigated by depth-of-penetration testing.

Validation of the TruBlue Light Laser for Laryngeal Somatosensory and Perturbation Testing. [PDF]

Laryngoscope
This study validates a blue light laser method for assessing laryngeal somatosensory function by measuring perceptual thresholds, reflexive responses, discrimination acuity, and vocal perturbations in healthy adults. Results demonstrate that the method provides precise, reliable stimulation and yields quantifiable sensory and acoustic responses ...

Ballistic limit velocity of tungsten alloy spherical fragment penetrating Ti/AlTi-laminated composite target plates

Advanced Composites Letters, 2020
To determine the ballistic limit velocity of titanium–titanium tri-aluminide (Ti/Al 3 Ti)-laminated composites under the action of tungsten alloy spherical fragments, a type of 12.7 mm ballistic gun loading system was used to test the tungsten alloy ...

Ballistic performance of functionally graded boron carbide reinforced Al – Zn – Mg – Cu alloy

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2022
Functionally Graded Materials (FGM) with graded ceramic content offer significant protection against high-velocity ballistic impacts. The incorporation of ceramic reinforcements helps in increasing the hardness of individual layers, and the presence of a

Ballistic and physical properties of highly fractured alumina [PDF]

, 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.

Ballistic response of armour plates using Generative Adversarial Networks

Defence Technology, 2022
It is important to understand how ballistic materials respond to impact from projectiles such that informed decisions can be made in the design process of protective armour systems.
