Research on ballistic resistance of DCPD laminate under pistol ammunition fire

Abstract eng:
This paper describes an investigation of the ballistic resistance of DCPD matrix composite reinforced with aramid fabric. The resistance was tested using 0.44 Magnum ammunition at a mean initial speed of 380 m/s. Detailed analysis of the projectile impact energy dissipation process was conducted using computed tomography. In that way it was possible to register the local area connected to the energy dissipation of the penetrating projectile and its deformation. The results of computational analysis were used to conduct detailed research with the use of numerical methods in ABAQUS. Based on numerical and experimental research, conclusions were formulated about the shielding properties of material systems with the new matrix type.
