High velocity impact test on glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP) using a single stage gas gun (SSGG) - an experimental based approach

The aim of this work is to study the effect of thickness and type of bullet in impact test on structures made from a composite material. The composite material used in this study was Glass Fibre Reinforced Polymer (GFRP). This material was fabricated to produce laminated plate specimens with dimensi...
