Engineering the ceramic-polymer interface for advanced ballistic protection
- Abstract:
-
Ballistic impact on body armour is a complex phenomenon involving sophisticated materials and multiple interactions. The armours of interest to this study are polymer-backed ceramic plate composites, which are standard amongst military personnel. The composite nature adds complexity to the armour because of the interaction between the ceramic and polymer, which is thought to play a significant role in the armour performance; however, despite this importance, this interplay is relatively poorl...
