Hello Everyone,
I ran a ballistic simulation in abaqus (a bullet into polymer reinforced composite to be precise) and from the result, the bulllet was stopped with few layers of the composite destroyed of course withhout a complete penetration. How do I estimate the ballistic limit of the target from the numerical calculation? I understood he ballistic limit is the velocity at the which the bullet is able to cause some damage and the bullet couldn't go further to destroy the target. Can I take the velocity of the bullet up to the damage zone in the composite as the ballistic limit of the target? Please put me through on how to achieve this in abaqus.
Thank you so much!
