Modelling of impacts on fibre-metal laminates requires understanding the interaction
between the composite and metal layers. From the many parameters that affect the laminate …

This paper presents a numerical investigation of the ballistic performance of monolithic,
double-and triple-layered metallic plates made of either steel or aluminium or a combination …

A numerical investigation was carried out to analyze in details the perforation process of
target AA5754-O Aluminum plate when subjected to normal impact at low (up to 25 ms− 1) …

This paper discusses on the penetration of high velocity projectiles through aluminium–
polyurea composite layered plate systems. An analytical model has been proposed to …

Incorporating elastomers such as polymers in protective structures to withstand high
energetic dynamic loads, has gained significant interest. The main objective of this study is …

Through experimental and numerical investigation, this article investigates the constitutive
and impact response of the 1.6 mm thick AA7474-T7351 plate under the impact of blunt and …

An experimental and numerical study has been conducted to study the deformation time
history behaviour of square aluminium alloy AA5083-H116 plates supported by a bolted …

Cladded multilayer multi-material sheets are now extensively being used in different
engineering fields. These sheets are well known for their excellent mechanical and …

In this paper, an experimental and numerical program investigating impact in the low-
velocity regime (≤ 10 m/s) on 1.5 mm thick AA6016 aluminium plates in three different heat …

Due to their low density, high specific damping capacity and high shock absorbency,
magnesium (Mg) alloys have great potential for development as high-performance …
