Institutional and technical history of requirements‐based strategic armor ceramics basic research leading up to the multiscale material by design materials in extreme dynamic environments (MEDE) program. Part II: Dynamic effects on the physics and mechanisms of advanced ceramics such as boron carbide
Abstract:This paper follows a historical background on requirements-based strategic armor research, leading to the materials in extreme dynamic environments program presented in Part I, now focusing on the developed technical aspects and state-of-the-art. It starts with some background on dynamic testing techniques and a structural ceramics review. Then, selected armor ceramics research results and relevant single-grain anisotropic crystal physics, microstructure, and defect mechanics mechanisms: Including pivotal armo… Show more
