Abstract

Abstract In the construction of an armor for ballistic protection, fibers are used in the form of a laminated composite bonded to the back of the frontal ceramic layer. The composite layer dissipates energy transmitted through the ceramic layer and controls the spall. To absorb energy locally and to...
