Gun Bullet Deformation Analysis for Protection Board Development

Abstract:

In this paper, the effects of collision velocity on bullet deformation were discussed and performance of protection board made of PC (polycarbonate) plate was estimated. The deformation of the bullet and the PC board after collision were measured by 3-dimensional digitizing machine.Furthermore, the bullet collision analysis was performed by FEM analysis code "LS-DYNA", and the impact load carrying capacity of PC plate was discussed by comparing the experimental results with the analytical ones
