On the design of bi-layer armor materials

A modified Florence model to predict ballistic limit velocity (BLV) for bi-layer armor systems comprising ceramic front and metallic backing plate is proposed based on energy conservation. Maximization of the BLV for a given AD or TT is studied. Comparison between the maximum BLV obtained from new m...
