Fish Scale-Inspired Stab-Resistant Body Armour
Materials ProceedingsWhile commercially available lightweight “stab-proof” apparel exists, it offers little resistance to true stabbing as it is primarily designed to withstand slash attacks. Yet, crimes involving the use of a knife or sharp instrument have consistently been

Obesity may not be protective in abdominal stab wounds
Journal of Emergencies, Trauma, and Shock, 2019 Current protocols for the management of abdominal stab wounds were established based on retrospective data from prior decades. Few have investigated whether higher body mass index (BMI) affects outcomes after these injuries.The aim was to determine the effects of obesity on outcomes in abdominal stab wound patients.This was a retrospective cohort study

EVALUATION AND TYPES OF ATTACKS WITH STABBING WEAPONS FOR THE DESIGN OF PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Lékař a technika - Clinician and Technology, 2021 Knife attacks have become a global problem in recent years, especially in countries where access to firearms is limited. However, the current situation is that the method of selection and characteristics of protective equipment about the physical attributes of stabbing attacks is not systematically determined.

, 2018 This research work studied the incorporation of a non-Newtonian fluid composed of silica nanoparticles in a cotton substrate material. The modified cotton substrate was subjected to anti-stabbing tests, which revealed that the use of only nine layers of silica-functionalized cotton was sufficient to hold the stab action since only the first layer was ...

Investigation of Stab Protection Properties of Aramid Fibre-Reinforced 3D Printed Elements
Fibres and Textiles in Eastern Europe, 2021 A stab resistant vest is a reinforced piece of body armour designed to resist knife or needle attacks of different energy levels specifically to the upper part of the body (chest and abdomen) to save lives. The majority of armours limit several comfort parameters, such as free locomotion, respiration, flexibility and light weight, which determine ...
