Interface Defeat and Penetration: Two Modes of Interaction between Metallic Projectiles and Ceramic Targets

Ceramics constitute an important group of low-density armour materials. Their high intrinsic strength makes it possible to design ceramic armour systems capable of defeating projectiles directly on the ceramic surface. This capability, named interface defeat, signifies that the projectile material i...
