Mesh-independent damage-plasticity model for ceramics in ballistic protection


Abstract eng:
Ceramics are hard, relatively light and brittle materials which are used in armour systems. Design of these armour systems typically requires a high number of ballistic experiments to be performed. Finite Element (FE) simulation of ballistic loading on ceramics provides an alternative and reduces the required number of experiments. Unfortunately current material models fail to properly capture behaviour of ceramic materials. A number of improvements on current material models are proposed.
