The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.The non-woven felt known commercially as Dyneema Fraglight has an outstanding performances stopping fragments. The objective of this project is to understand the reason for this performance by means of four different approaches: 1) Through mechanical characterization varying size, direction, temperature and strain rate of specimens; 2) Ballistic characterization to obtain residual velocity curves and high speed photography; 3) Numerical simulations of static and ballistic tests; 4) Analytical modeling.
