DYNAMICS OF BODY-ARMOR MATERIALS UNDER HIGH-SPEED IMPACT PART II. SINGLE AND TRIPLE MICROFLASH INSTRUMENTATION FOR SINGLE YARN STUDIES (U)

摘要

The objective of this series of investigations is the study of the dynamics of energy absorption in body armor materials. One of the first steps necessary in this investigation was, therefore, to develop techniques for direct observation of the events resulting from the impact of a cal. 22 fragment simulator projectile at various velocities against a single yarnnThis work was accomplished by an agreement between the Bio¬physics Division, Directorate of Medical Research, and the Canadian De¬fense Research Board.
