Understanding the Mechanisms of Shock-Induced Deformation in Polymeric Systems
Shock waves, commonly resulting from ballistic or explosive impact in military scenarios, are highly destructive and pose significant health risks due to their rapid, intense energy transfer. To mitigate these effects, it is crucial to design armor capable of absorbing and dissipating shock wave ene...
