Item Ballistic impact analysis of multilayered armour system using finite element analysis(Elsevier, 2024) Doddamani, S.; Kulkarni, S.M.; Joladarashi, S.; Mohan Kumar, T.S.; Gurjar, A.K.The application of finite element analysis (FEA) to the ballistic impact analysis of polymer composites used in armor is covered in this chapter. This study aims to assess polymer composite armor materials' performance and establish their resistance to high-velocity projectile impacts. The use of FEA enables accurate simulations of the impact process that take into consideration the properties of the materials, the geometry of the projectile and the armor panel, and the impact conditions. The investigation' findings shed important light on how the polymer composite armor responds to impacts and its capacity to absorb and dissipate impact energy. For the development of cutting-edge armor materials and the multiscale modeling method of armor design, this information is essential. The chapter ends with recommendations for further research as well as a discussion of the difficulties and restrictions of employing FEA for ballistic impact analysis. © 2024 Elsevier Ltd.

Compared to metallic alloys, composite materials offer superior material properties while being lightweight. The main objective of this study is to develop active control techniques on Carbon/Glass Epoxy-reinforced composite sandwich beams with viscoelastic core using Proportional Integral Derivative (PID), Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR), and Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) Controllers. The approach involves conducting an experiment to obtain the Transient Response of the beams subjected to free vibration, which is then utilized to obtain the Transfer Function and State Space variables. MATLAB-Simulink obtained transfer function is used for implementing controllers to actively attenuate vibrational amplitudes and settling time. The outcomes reveal a significant reduction in settling time and vibrational peak amplitudes. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2024.Item Dynamic characterization of hybrid composite material of rotor-bearing support system(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2022) Gonsalves, T.H.; Garje Channabasappa, M.K.; Motagondanahalli Rangarasaiah, R.; Joladarashi, S.In this paper, the dynamic characterization of hybrid composite material of carbon-epoxy sandwiched by steel is presented from the rotor-bearing system perspective. The tensile and flexural strengths of the hybrid material are investigated followed by the detailed damping estimation using modal testing in cantilever mode and dynamic mechanical analysis in double cantilever mode. The experimental characterization results obtained in this work have fundamentally ascertained the mechanical and dynamic behavior of hybrid composite material for the intended application. © 2020 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
