Abstract:
The work is focused on mechanical and ballistic properties of textile materials most used in personal protection (ballistic vests, helmets), i.e. aramid fabrics. Physical and mechanical properties such as Young’s modulus, maximum strength before rupture, tensile strength, elongation at rupture and combustion velocity were measured. Ballistic resistance of sets of selected fabrics was tested. Ballistic tests were focused on protection level TBO-2/CZ according to ČSN 395360.

Abstract:
Multiple layers of ballistic fabrics are extensively used in the production of soft body armour. The importance of comfort and hence its evaluation for these fabrics is gaining significance among present day researchers. This research compares 100% Kevlar ballistic fabric and Kevlar/wool ballistic fabric focussing on two aspects of comfort, namely the evaluation of surface roughness and the ability to transport moisture. A water repellent treatment was applied to the ballistic Kevlar/wool fabric. The effects of the treatment on the Kevlar/wool fabric were examined as well.

In addition to fiber properties, the fabric structure plays an important role in determining ballistic performance of composite body armor textile. Textile structures used in ballistic protection are woven fabrics, unidirectional (UD) fabric structures, and nonwoven fabrics. In this article, an analytical model based on wave propagation and energy balance between the projectile and the target is developed to analyze hybrid fabric panels for ballistic protection. The hybrid panel consists of two types of structure: woven fabrics as the front layers and UD material as the rear layers. The model

Abstract:
Thick-section composites made from plain weave (5×5) S-2 glass fabrics and toughened API epoxy SC15 resin are impacted with right circular cylinder projectiles at different impact velocities, and at support span of diameter 101.6-mm. The impact and residual velocity of the projectiles are measured using flash X-Ray. Ballistic energy dissipated in the composite plates is determined following an energy balance approach. The damage mechanisms under ballistic impact are evaluated by sectioning each composite plate through the impact axis. Composite damage mechanisms are presented as a function of
