In this paper, based on LS-Dyna code, a new finite element (FE) simulation of the ballistic perforation of the ceramic/composite targets, which impacted by cylindrical tungsten …
M Lee, YH Yoo - International Journal of Impact Engineering, 2001 - Elsevier
A combined numerical and experimental study for the analysis of ceramic/metal composite armour system against 40.7 g steel projectiles has been performed. The ballistic …
In this work, a study has been made of the effect of the adhesive layer thickness on the efficiency of alumina/aluminium armours. Full-scale tests were made shooting armour …
