Development of Multi-Functional Add-On Hybrid Armor Models and Designs used for Vehicle Protection
DownloadFall 2022
In the first part of this thesis, a validated polyurethane adhesive model is implemented into a system-scale ceramic/armor model for ballistic impact simulations. Here, the trilinear cohesive zone (TCZM) technique is used to simulate the dynamic failure of SikaForceTM6 7752-L60 polyurethane...

Disordered biopolymer gels, such as those synthesized from polysaccharide and gelatin, play a crucial role in biomedical applications, particularly in tissue engineering. During the gelation process of these gels, polymer chains associate in the presence of gelling agents, forming physical...
