Constitutive Behavior of a Twaron® Fabric/Natural Rubber Composite: Experiments and Modeling
Ballistic fabrics made from high performance polymeric fibers such as Kevlar®, Twaron® and Spectra® fibers and composites utilizing these fabrics are among the leading materials for modern body armor systems. Polymeric fibers used to produce ballistic fabrics often behave viscoelastically and exhibi...
