To further reveal the failure mechanisms of thick ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene(UHMWPE)laminates,field firing tests were conducted for 10-,20-,and 30-mm thick laminates against 12.7-mm calibre wedge-shaped ...
Hybrid composite materials combine different fibers in preform and take advantages of different mechanical behaviors for improving ballistic impact damage tolerances.Here we report ballistic impact damages of plain-wo...

The conventional case of patch repair involves bonding a patch over single damage/hole in the laminate.This work investigates the effect of interaction of two holes on the tensile behavior patch repaired carbon epoxy ...
The perforated stiffened panel is generally found as a sub-component of sophisticated structures.The fundamental purpose of this panel is to withstand against buckling under complicated loading and environmental condi...
High-performance ballistic fibers,such as aramid fiber and ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene(UHMWPE),are commonly used in anti-ballistic structures due to their low density,high tensile strength and high specif...
Studies on ballistic penetration to laminates is complicated,but important for design effective protection of structures.Experimental means of study is expensive and can often be dangerous.Numerical simulation has bee...

Cross-ply unidirectional laminates made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fibers are widely used as components of bullet-proof vests.To simulate the delamination process of the material under penetration,we ...
The authors are thankful to Dr.Mano Misra and Dr.Pradeep Menezes both at University of Nevada,Reno for valuable discussion.
This article presents the texture development of magnesium AZ31 alloy in the accumulative roll bonded(ARB) AZ31/AZ31 multilayer and AZ31/AA5086 laminate composite.The comparative study demonstrates that the texture ev...
Low velocity impact experiments were carried out on E-glass/epoxy composite laminates having varying thicknesses at sub zero and elevated temperatures using hemi spherical steel impactor of 16 mm diameter with impact ...
Natural fiber composites have been proved to have the ability to replace the synthetic fiber composites in many structural applications. Unprecedented growth in the field of computational techniques has opened the doo...
