1. Oblique penetration of tungsten alloy rod to finite-thickness metal plate
Abstract In order to study the critical ricochet velocity and critical penetration velocity of tungsten alloy rod obliquely penetrating a finite-thickness metal plate, experiment and numerical calculation of tungsten alloy rod impacting on homogeneous armor steel plate with a thickness of 30mm at an angle of 60° were carried out. Compared the experimental a

2. Evaluation of the Projectile's loss of Energy in Polyester Composite Reinforced with Fique Fiber and Fabric
Firearms threat has always been a matter of personal concern, especially to soldiers in armed conflicts as well as police officers and civilians involved with public security. A multilayered armor system (MAS) is intended to personal protection against high kinetic energy ammunition, such as that used in rifles. MAS layers are normally composed of a front ce

3. Guaruman: a Natural Amazonian Fiber with Potential for Polymer Composite Reinforcement
The Amazonian region of South America is known for its diversified number of plants from which food, medicine, wood and fibers have, since long time, been produced by local natives. A typical example is the guarumã (“guaruman”as suggested English spelling) scientifically identified as Ischinosiphon koem, an abundant plant found in the low lands alongsid

4. Desempenho balístico de estruturas multicamadas à base de alumina/epóxi
Resumo Alumina é comumente utilizada em blindagens compostas. Apresenta baixa tenacidade à fratura e esta propriedade está relacionada à resistência a múltiplos disparos. Com o intuito de melhorar a durabilidade em campo uma alternativa seria utilizar cerâmicas multicamadas. Neste estudo foi avaliado o desempenho balístico de estruturas multicamadas

5. Tensile Armor Wires Submitted to Slow Strain Rate Tests in a Corrosive Environment and Cathodic Protection: a Comparison Between Two Different Microstructures
Tensile armor in flexible pipes consists of two or more layers of steel wires. Damage to the outer sheath may cause ingress of seawater in the annular space and thus corrosion of the armor wires. This work focused on the susceptibility of these wires to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and hydrogen embrittlement (HE) using a slow strain rate test (SSRT) under

6. Natural ageing of polyaramide fiber from ballistic armor
Abstract Ballistic armor has been manufactured primarily based on polyaramide (Kevlar and Twaron) or Dyneema but the lifespan warranty in Brazil is only 5 years and after this time period they are incinerated or comminuted and ground up. This study aims to evaluate the changes on the physical, mechanical and morphological properties of polyaramide fibers of

7. Numerical Studies of Penetration in Light Armor, Concrete and Brick-Wall Targets
ABSTRACT The accurate numerical simulation of projectile penetration process is a complex challenge. Experimental investigation of these time-dependent non-linear events is expensive and time-consuming. In this paper, 3-D numerical simulations are carried out to estimate the penetration performance of designed penetrators against the double and triple brick-

8. Influencia de la temperatura en ensayos de arrancamiento sobre diferentes sistemas epoxi-acero de uso en conectores de ductos flexibles
ABSTRACT In the offshore oil fields located in deep and ultra-deep waters they are used flexible pipes. In many cases inside these pipes, the hydrocarbons are transported at elevated temperatures. At the ends of the flexible pipes are installed end fittings, these are the connection with sea platforms and different subsea systems. In the assembly of end fitt

9. Caracterización de resinas epoxi para uso en conectores de ductos flexibles
ABSTRACT In the offshore productions of gas and oil are frequently used flexible pipes. The end fitting is the connection between the flexible pipe body and the production unit, at the assembly of this component is used epoxy resin to fill the free space inside it. This polymeric material holds the tensile armor wires to form the anchoring system. A critical

10. The dispersion curve applied in guided wave propagation in prismatic rods.
Abstract The early detection of failures in structures is a subject of great interest in engineering; several of these techniques are linked with the elastic wave propagation, using guided waves is one of these alternatives. Several structures of interest in engineering are laminar arrangements; the wave propagation in this type of structures depends not on

11. Ballistic Efficiency of Multilayered Armor Systems with Sisal Fiber Polyester Composites
The urban violence and the different types of global armed conflicts demand efficient protective systems against high energy ammunition. Multilayered Armor Systems (MAS) provide efficient protection by making use of lighter and more efficient materials. A typical MAS may be composed of three layers: a front ceramic followed by a composite, backed by a ductil

12. The Effect of Thickness on Aramid Fabric Laminates Subjected to 7.62 MM Ammunition Ballistic Impact
Due to increasing improvement of weaponry and ammunition, attention is being given to the development of new materials that could more effectively resist to ballistic impact. In order to stop high energy bullets, with speed above 800 m/s, a high strength material is necessary. However, if just one material is used, then a relatively thick piece is required,
