Renewable Materials for Stab Resistance
2016Different materials were investigated experimentally with respect to their stab resistance. The focus of this research is the use of renewable cellulosic materials , such as cotton and paper, in comparison with high-performance materials, such as aramid or ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene. The tests were carried out according to the standard of

Injury, 2000
Stab-resistant body armour may not always prevent the passage of a blade into the human body. The depth to which a knife may 'safely' enter the human body before it breaches the internal organs was explored by ultrasound scanning of 25 healthy volunteers.

The stab resistant properties of Kevlar/STF composites
SPIE Proceedings, 2012A colloidal shear thickening fluid (STF) was prepared by dispersing submicron silica particles in Polyethylene glycol 200(PEG200) with ball-milling technique. Kevlar/STF composites were fabricated by soaking Kevlar in the solution of STF diluted by ethanol.

FLEXIBLE STAB RESISTANT CERAMIC-BASED BODY ARMOUR
Transactions of the Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering, 2007This paper presents the results of a study on performance of flexible stab resistant ceramic-based composite body armour that our research group has initiated, designed, assembled, and tested. The test outcomes were characterized in terms of the kinetic energy of the stabbing weapon at impact and the depth of penetration of the stab into the armour. A

Evaluation of test regimes for stab-resistant body armour
Proceedings of the I MECH E Part L Journal of Materials:Design and Applications, 2004Modern lightweight stab-resistant body armour has been developed in response to the operational requirements and the experiences of police forces. While a high degree of protection may be afforded to the wearer, this has usually been achieved at the expense of weight, stiffness, and comfort. The use of a test method to measure the protection level of a

Egg-shell structure design for stab resistant body armor
Materials Today Communications, 2018Abstract Conventionally fabricated multi-layered Stab Resistance Body Armor (SRBA) is uncomfortable to wear, because it is too heavy and inflexible. The natural, hierarchical shelled scale outer structures found in certain animals have provided the inspiration for the design of modern SRBA.

Stab resistance of triaxial woven fabrics for soft body armor
Journal of Industrial Textiles, 2014Protective body armors, providing protection against stab threats, have long been in a focus of substantial interest. Lightweight fabric for flexible body armors that satisfy the customized fit, comfort, and protection should be considered. Sharp impact experiments were conducted on single and multilayer fabrics of Kevlar

Enhanced stab resistance of armor composites with functionalized silica nanoparticles
Journal of Applied Physics, 2009Traditionally shear thickening fluid (STF) reinforced with Kevlar has been used to develop flexible armor. At the core of the STF-Kevlar composites is a mixture of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and silica particles. This mixture is often known as STF and is consisted of approximately 45 wt % PEG and 55 wt % silica.
