The optimisation of stress transfer characteristics in adhesively bonded vehicular armour by modification of the adhesive phase and by engineering the adhesive-to-metal and adhesive-to-composite interphases

The aim of this study is to ultimately improve the multi-hit capability of armoured constructs. To gain an understanding of how different armoured layers respond to impact, and distribute the stress within the armour pack. In this study an investigation into possible adhesives and surface treatments...
