Ballistic performance and statistical evaluation of multilayered armor with epoxy-fique fabric composites using the Weibull analysis

The ballistic performance of multilayered armor system (MAS) with front ceramic tile, followed by a laminate of up to 50 vol.% of fique fabric-reinforced epoxy matrix and back by a 5062H34 aluminum alloy was evaluated. The backface signature (BFS) caused by the bullet in a block of clay witness behi...
