Analysis of bulletproof performance of structurally optimized ceramic composite armor through numerical simulation and live fire test by Zhiyong Chen, Jian Hou, Fei Gao, Sier Deng, Yingqiang Xu, Jing Qin, Shuaishuai Cui, Jun-Hyun Kim

“…These structurally optimized composite pads are examined by numerical simulation of impact dynamics to understand their anti-penetration performance whose accuracy is then validated by live fire tests. The results reveal that (1) the ceramic plates with improved edge design enhance the anti-penetration efficiency, (2) the established dynamic constitutive model of penetration resistance effectively predicts the ballistic performance of the armor pad, and (3) inability to penetrate high-speed real bullets through the armor suggests that the ballistic performance fully meets the protection requirements of the MIL-A-46103EIII Class 2 A standard. …”
