Abstract: Ballistic impact testing was carried out on panels of both S-2 glass/epoxy system and graphite/epoxy laminates with and without polycarbonate facing. Both the striking velocity and exit velocity were measured using magnetic ...

Abstract: In this paper, the dynamics of the spatial impact of a slender beam is analyzed. The equations of motion are calculated using Kane’s impact method. The generalized momentum and generalized ...

Abstract: The research focused on the effects of low velocity impact loading on high-strength concrete confined by a prefabricated polypropylene jacket and comparing the results with similar specimens confined by carbon fiber-reinforced ...

Abstract: Monotonic tensile and fatigue response of continuous silicon carbide fiber reinforced silicon nitride (SiCf /Si3 N4 ) composites has been investigated. The monotonic tensile tests have been ...
