Multi-scale Materials Modeling for Force Protection

Abstract

This effort develops computational tools for the design of terminal ballistic concepts and material-specific properties to enable novel penetrator-target interactions. Multi-scale materials models developed in previous 6.1 (Basic Research) programs are transitioned to simulation framework suitable for impact and penetration modeling. This approach includes fusing materials and mechanisms to maximize survivability and minimize weight for combat and tactical vehicles.
