Borofloat® borosilicate float glass and Starphire® soda‐lime silicate float glass are used in
transparent protective systems. They are known to respond differently in some ballistic and …

A mathematically transparent and robust experimental method has been developed to
estimate the yield stress of brittle materials through the analysis of depth-sensing spherical …

Reaction-bonded SiC-B4C-Si ceramic composites were binder jet 3D-printed and
subsequently pressureless-melt-infiltrated with molten Si. The addition of B4C aided the Si …

Traditionally, ceramic materials are brittle and have various internal defects. Impact strength
of ceramic tiles strongly depends of defects distribution and still not fully understood. In this …

Traditional ceramic/composite personal protective structures now are monolithic. In this
case, the ceramic part is designed to shatter the high hardness core of the projectile into …

Several silica-based glasses were fractured at high strain energy via drop-weight testing on
small specimens. A cylindrical specimen geometry was chosen to promote initially simple …

The typical ceramic/composite personal protective structures now are monolithic. In this
case, alumina ceramic part is designed to shatter high hardness core of projectile into …

Керамика широко используется в различных приложениях. Поэтому прогнозирование
ее поведения при различных видах нагружения является на сегодняшний день …
