“…Ballistic performance of fiber reinforced composite structures can be improved by several ways and the wellknown way is hybridization method. [22][23][24][25][26][27] Hybridization is a method in which at least two different types of fibers are used together in a composite panel to benefit from their synergy. Stacking sequence is an important parameter in hybridization method since deformation mechanisms are different for each fiber type.…”

“…In glass-carbon hybrid structures, it is more effective to use glass layers in the rear side of the composite panels. 24 Hybrid structures migmay be also fabricated with ceramic faced for composite armor structures. As the caliber of threat increases, the potential is low to absorb the whole kinetic energy of projectile with fiber reinforced composites.…”

The aim of this study is enhancing the ballistic performance of multi-layered fiber reinforced composite structures by hybridization approach against fragment simulating projectile (FSP). For manufacturing of homogeneous and hybrid composite structures, 170 g/m2 twill weave aramid and 280 g/m2 plain weave E-Glass fibers were used with epoxy resin systems and two different thickness values for each composite panel were fabricated and tested to obtain a relationship between areal density and V50 parameters. Tensile, 3-point bending, and short beam strength tests of composite panels were performed, and ballistic performance of composite structures were measured by V50 test method with 1.1 g FSP threat. Ballistic performance of hybrid composite structures was compared with high-performance composite ballistic panel test results reported in literature. As a result, it was found that E-Glass fabric layers together with aramid fabrics increased the energy absorbing capability of hybrid composite panels and ballistic performance was enhanced to be similar or higher than ballistic fiber reinforced composites. Hence, hybridization was found to be an effective way to enhance ballistic performance of fiber reinforced composite structures.

“…23 In this regard, glass fibres are the best option from the viewpoint of cost, accessibility and simplicity of treating, and hybrid carbon/glass fibre composites have shown to better tolerate the damage with respect to fibre matching part. 24–26 Also, basalt fibre laminates have gain attention of many researchers since the increasing interest in the environment that had promoted the use of natural fibres as reinforcement in polymer matrices. 27,28 The low cost, easy availability and the simple manufacturing process, very similar to that of glass fibres but without any precursor nor additives, lead to choosing basalt fibres, thus obtaining an economic gain and a reduction of the environmental impact.…”

A demand raised is how to improve the survivability of aircraft and naval structures concerning low- and high-velocity impacts. Since fundamental failure is due to mainly by fracture, a fundamental understanding of both mechanisms and mechanics of the material is crucial. It is important to understand the deformation and damage mechanisms involved in the impact to improve the design of composite structures. Several approaches have been exploited to improve the impact damage resistance of composite laminates in different conditions. Among these, the development of composite laminates stacking different fibres in the same matrix results very interestingly. This paper deals to investigate on the high and low speed impact performance of hybrid composite configurations made of glass/carbon and basalt fibres. Low-velocity impact at penetration and high speed tests at different impact velocity were carried out at the room and low temperatures to evaluate the goodness of hybridization proposed and the temperature effect on the composite performances. Among the three proposals, a hybrid basalt carbon configuration was identified as the best both at low speeds and at high impact speeds for both temperatures tested.

“…A couple of years ago, the authors developed a new analytical model to simulate high-speed normal impact onto composite material targets [14]. The model only needs input data determined from direct observation of target measures and mechanical properties, and it has been shown valid to predict both, the ballistic limit as well as the residual velocity after full perforation of the target for different fibres and temperatures [14][15][16].…”
