Abstract
The known fiber and polymeric-matrix material properties, unit-cell microstructural characteristics and unit-cell level finite-element analyses are used to construct a new ballistic material model for 0°/90° cross-plied oriented polyethylene fiber-based armor-grade composite laminates. The model is constructed in such a way that it can be readily integrated into commercial finite-element programs like ANSYS/Autodyn [ANSYS/Autodyn version 11.0,...
