Using an analytical model of simulation in the design of lightweight armours
This paper presents a model of the simulation of the impact of projectiles of high kinetic energy on lightweight ceramic/metal armours. The work was financed jointly by the Defence Ministries of Spain, Italy, Holland and Denmark as part of a project among nations for the development of tools for the design of this type of armour. The model consists of a series of differential equations incorporating the most essential phenomena of the impact process, formulated after a close study of a series of real fire tests. It features a nucleus of calculation into which the equations may in time be integrated, and may also include a user interface. This practical, preliminary design tool's efficacy is amply confirmed by test results.
