An experimental and theoretical analysis of projectile and target geometry effects on ballistic limit velocity / M. Amiri

FRP (Fibre Reinforce Plastics) laminates are now widely used in different industries like aviation, marine and transportation as FRP has shown considerable strength and hardness. However, these materials are vulnerable to lateral intensive static loads and impacts but have proved a good stability an...
