Center of Excellence for Materials Research

Abstract

This report contains final results of four distinct tasks that were funded under this grant. Each task starts on a different page, starting with an overview, followed by results. At the end of each task report, the name of the doctoral student who received Ph.D. degree with funding of the task, and a publication list are given. The four tasks are, 'Thermomechanics of Fiber - Reinforced Elastomeric Composites', Evaluations and Modification of Constitutive Models for Finite Viscoplastic Deformation Related to Armor Design, 'Nanocrystalline Material by Mechanical Alloying and Investigation of Suitability for Armor Applications', and 'High Strain Rate Behavior and Damage Measurements in Glass Reinforced Plastics'. It should be pointed out here that the final reports of the subcontracts to the University of Maryland College Park (Drs. W. Chappas & J. Silverman, and Drs. R. W. Armstrong & X. Zhang) were submitted separately.
