A Numerical Modelling Framework for Investigating the Ballistic Performance of Bio-Inspired Body Armours

A Numerical Modelling Framework for Investigating the Ballistic Performance of Bio-Inspired Body Armours

Biological structures possess excellent damage tolerance, which makes them attractive for ballistic protection applications. This paper develops a finite element modelling framework to investigate the performance of several biological structures that are most relevant for ballistic protection, inclu...
