Numerical and experimental analysis of body armor polymer penetration resistance against 7.62 mm bullet

Numerical and experimental analysis of body armor polymer penetration resistance against 7.62 mm bullet

Advanced materials are crucial for enhancing soldier safety through improved personal body armor. In contrast to conventional Kevlar-epoxy composites, this study examines the ballistic performance of a unique ECO-UHMWPE (Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) vest. The aim is to achieve a lightwe...
