Optimization of Reinforced Concrete Panels with Rear Face Steel Liner under Impact Loading

摘要

We investigate the effect of steel plate lining at the rear face of the reinforced concrete panel on the ballistic properties using the semi-empirical model. We determine the structure of the two-layered shield that provides the maximum critical velocity for a given area density and depends on the mechanical properties of concrete and characteristics of the reinforcement. It is found that the optimal shield with lining has a considerable advantage over the shield without lining.
