Numerical analysis of ballistic impact performance of two ceramic-based armor structures

This paper investigates ballistic performance of two different ceramic-based armor designs using finite element analysis. The first design is a bi-layer armor consists of a ceramic front layer and a Kevlar-29 composite backing layer. The second design consists of a ceramic filled honeycomb front lay...
