Experimental study of bullet-proofing capabilities of Kevlar, of different weights and number of layers, with 9 mm projectiles

Kevlar is the most commonly used material as armour for protection against bullets used in hand guns because of its impact resistance, high strength and low weight.These properties make Kevlar an ideal material to be used in bullet-proof vests as compared to other materials.In the present study, different numbers of layers of Kevlar with different

Thermomechanical assessment of the effects of a jaw-beam angle during beam impact on Large Hadron Collider collimators

The correct functioning of a Tennis Strings collimation system is crucial to safely and successfully operate high-energy particle accelerators, such as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).However, the requirements to handle high-intensity beams can be demanding, and accident scenarios must be well studied in order to assess if the collimator design is
