Academic researchers who are working on the development of
composite materials for ballistic protection need a deeper
understanding on the theory of material behavior during ballistic
impact. Those working in industry also need to select proper
composite constituents, to achieve their desired characteristics to
make functional products. Composite Solutions for Ballistics covers
the different aspects of ballistic protection, its different levels
and the materials and structures used for this purpose. The
emphasis in the book is on the application and use of composite
materials for ballistic protection. The chapters provide detailed
information on the various types of impact events and the
complexity of materials to respond to those events. The
characteristics of ballistic composites and modelling and
simulation results will enable the reader to better understand
impact mechanisms according to the theory of dynamic material
behavior. A complete description of testing conditions is also
given that includes sensors and high-speed devices to monitor
ballistic events. The book includes detailed approaches and schemes
that can be implemented in academic research into solutions for
ballistic protection in both theoretical and experimental fields,
to find solutions for existing and next generation threats. The
book will be an essential reference resource for materials
scientists and engineers, and academic and industrial researchers
working in composite materials and textiles for ballistic
protection, as well as postgraduate students on materials science,
textiles and mechanical engineering courses.
