Abstract

The article presents a study examining the behavior of aluminum plates under ballistic impact. It states that 1,100 one-millimeter (mm)-thick aluminum plate undergone experimental ballistic impact tests with different projectile nose shapes in the Product Safety Laboratory, and finite element method and regression analysis were applied in numerical investigation. Results showed a good correlation between residual velocity in computer simulation and failure modes in the experiment.
