Abstract:

To investigate the ballistic impact response characteristics of aramid fabric and its containment ring, the mechanical properties of the aramid fabric were obtained by conducting the quasi-static and dynamic tensile tests, and the impact performance of the aramid fabric plate and its containment ring were determined by conducting the ballistic impact tests. The numerical multi-layer shell models were built and verified using the test results. The research results show that the strain rate has a significant effect on the mechanical properties of the aramid fabric.For the fabric ballistic impact tests, the energy absorption of the aramid fabric is related to the failure mode, and there are obvious boundary effects. For the ballistic impact tests on the containment ring, the energy is dissipated mainly through the yarn strain energy, the yarn breakage and the interaction between yarns. At the same incident velocities, the smaller is the number of layers, the less energy is absorbed. When the number of fabric layers increases, the more energy is absorbed, but the increment of energy absorption decreases. The multi-layer shell models can well reproduce the ballistic impact process, and the simulated failure morphology, the residual velocity of projectile, and the absorbed energy percent difference are close to the test results, which can effectively verify the multi-layer shell models.

Key words: aramid fabric, containment ring, ballistic impact, failure mode, response characteristic, numerical simulation
