Abstract
In defence industry, ballistic impact is common scenario occurs often. The materials used for making vests, automobile covering parts, aerospace parts affected due to impact of projectile. These materials should posses’ good impact strength and energy absorption for its damage resistance and providing safety for the industry. Usually Aramid fiber Kevlar used for its well-known impact strength [8]. Fiber alone creates expensive and usage the same under every condition subjected to less velocity impact can be diminished by Weaving Kevlar with Basalt. Thus, it is important to calculate its impact strength and energy absorption factor of reinforced composites. In this thesis, Kevlar is weaved with Basalt for its good resistance to impact and the ballistic impact test is carried out with structural steel projectile for studying its behaviour, impact strength and energy absorption. From the results, it is sufficient to conclude that usage of 2D woven Kevlar Basalt composite behaviour on the basis of woven pattern with impact of projectile.
