Abstract
The ballistic resistance of Al2O3-Al composites against 7.62 mm Armour Piercing projectiles was investigated. Edge-on Impact tests were conducted in order to characterise the fracture behaviour of the composites. Two material versions based on different Al2O3-preforms were tested. The ceramic preforms were infiltrated with a high-strength aluminium alloy by squeeze casting.
Résumé
L'objet de recherche est la résistance de composites de Al2O3 contre l'impact de projectiles perforants du calibre 7.62 mm. Des expériments du type 'Edge-on Impact' ont permis la charactérisation du comportement fragile de deux composites à base de Al2O3.
