Ballistic performance of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene laminates against fragment-simulating projectiles

ObjectivesThis paper aims to study the dynamic perforation response process, failure mode transition and energy absorbtion characteristics of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE)laminates against fragment-simulating projectiles (FSPs). MethodsFE software ANSYS/AUTODYN is employed to est...
