An instrumented experimental study of the ballistic response of textile materials

This work describes an instrumented experimental investigation of the energy absorption of Kevlar® fabric under ballistic impact. A continuous measurement technique, the UBC Enhanced Laser Velocity System (ELVS), has been successfully used in ballistic impact experiments. The results of this meas...
