A numerical and experimental investigation of the impact behaviour of hybrid and multi-ply fabric structures

The focus of this work is to develop an understanding of the impact behaviour of singleand multi-ply fabric materials used in protective (armour) structures. Hybrid structures are also investigated to explore the effect of mixing different materials on armour system performance. Emphasis is placed o...
