A combined experimental and computational study was carried out to investigate ballistic performance of laterally preload compressed SiC tile against long rod impact. A 100 100 b y 20 mm thick SiC tile was pushed into a 5 mm thick steel frame at high temperature of 430 C so that after cool down to...
