This paper presents a semi-analytical approach on the performance of ceramic/metal armor under ballistic impact. Numerical simulations for alumina/aluminum armor impacted by 20 mm APDS in AUTODYN were carried out and verified against the experimental data. Comprehensive numerical simulations were pe...
