Ballistic impact behavior of multilayered armor plates processed by hardfacing [PDF]
Hardfacing is a type of surface treatment for the extension of service life of worn parts or structures and the improvement of the surface properties through deposition of the alloys using arc welding or laser cladding.[1,2] Among the hardfacing alloys, the high chromium hardfacing alloys have been used most extensively for dies or parts in various ...

Calculation of armor-resistant metal multilayer armored structures using the finite element method
At present, when the power of modern kinetic weapons is constantly increasing, traditional metallurgical and materials science approaches to the production of homogeneous rolled steel of armored steels are no longer able to provide high dynamic stability. Fulfillment of this requirement leads to a significant increase in the thickness of the armor and,

Ballistic behavior of multilayer wire mesh application armor
In this paper, an attempt was made to increase the ballistic protection of the armor system by combining non-homogenous spaced armor in form of multilayer wire mesh with rolled homogenous armor steel base plate. Different angles of incidence were tested: 0, 20, 25 and 35o, by using 12.7 mm armor piercing incendiary ammunition from 100 m.

Upon Using of Plastics Layer in Light Multilayered Armor
The concept of ballistic protection is a subject of great importance and is defined as representing all the capabilities of the military vehicle to withstand attacks, in order to ensure protection of the crew during the missions. The projectile-plate impact research must answer a series of questions on designer or fighter behalf, among which the most ...
