Abstract: Modern military operations, technology-driven war tactics and techniques, and availability of newly developed, current and surplus military ammunition necessitate the development of advanced ballistic protection for body armor, vehicle, vessel and aircraft systems that are damage-resistant, flexible, lightweight, capable of defeating multiple threats, while providing substantial energy absorbing capacity. A number of studies related to new technology concepts and designs of body armor materials (including those derived from or inspired by nature) have been conducted in the last decade to forge an attempt at meeting such demands. Ballistic textiles, ceramics, and laminated composites are among the leading materials used in modern body armor designs, and nano-particle and natural fiber filled composites are candidate materials for new-generation armor systems. Properties and ballistic resistance mechanisms of such materials have been extensively investigated, however, polymeric improvements have had limited scope and ceramic/polymer structured architectures have not been explored. The combination of these materials in an armor composite system with the high impact properties of ceramics and the extreme viscoelastic properties of polymers, would out-perform any of today's current lightweight rigidized polymeric systems, while maintaining superior lightweight ballistic and fragmentation performance capabilities as compared to the latest state-of-the-art lightweight ceramic glass and/or textile resin composite systems.

Abstract: An armor composite system comprises a plurality of ceramic elements having a strike face and a non-strike face connected by lateral sides, and a polymeric body wrap coupled to the non-strike face. Ballistic textiles, ceramics, and laminated composites are among the leading materials used in modem body armor designs, and nano-particle and natural fiber filled composites are candidate materials for new-generation armor systems. Properties and ballistic resistance mechanisms of such materials have been extensively investigated, however, polymeric improvements have had limited scope and ceramic/polymer structured architectures have not been explored. The combination of these materials in an armor composite system with the high impact properties of ceramics and the extreme viscoelastic properties of polymers, would out-perform any of today's current lightweight rigidized polymeric systems, while maintaining superior lightweight ballistic and fragmentation performance capabilities as compared to the latest state-of-the-art lightweight ceramic glass and/or textile resin composite systems.

Abstract: Attacks from improvised explosive devices (IEDs) are one of the major causes of soldiers being killed in action (KIA) and wounded in action (WIA). Such improvised explosive devices can cause considerable damage, disability and death from a device as small as a cellular telephone, to several thousand pounds of explosive material, and linked military artillery munitions, capable of cutting armored vehicles in half, to completely destroying the vehicle and killing all occupants within. A wide range of protective wear/gear or garments, have been designed to shield against a percentage of explosive blast effects of smaller less lethal improvised explosive devices and munitions, in an effort to reduce human casualties associated with explosive ordnance disposal. However, such protective wear/gear or garments have failed to keep pace with the evolution of improvised explosive devices, their destructive capabilities, and the technical sophistication of those responsible for their creation and fabrication. Improvised explosive devices (IED), and Vehicle borne improvised explosive devices (VBIED), are increasingly being used to the determent of the explosive ordinance personnel sent out to respond and either disarm or destroy the explosive devices. Additionally, with the rise in relay or remote control detonation, the EOD technicians face the threats of pre- detonation approaching the device(s), or subsequent detonation to the EOD technician departing the disarmed primary threat only to have a secondary IED threat detonated fatally injuring or killing him. Approach and departure from purposely designed, manufactured, disguised and concealed IED threats and the methods of their deployment are increasing in their complication of designs, performance capabilities and modes of utilization to the extreme detriment of soldiers, law enforcement and EOD technician personnel. These increasingly common events translate into a greater need for explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) technicians and a greater risk incurred by the EOD technicians employed by the military and law enforcement agencies. In the past, the use of bomb disposal protective equipment has meant an overwhelming weight burden, restrictive internal movement space, minimum fragmentation velocity resistance, absence of ballistic resistant capabilities, the loss of dexterity and eye- hand coordination to the detriment of the render-safe mission though reduced flexibility and overheating. The advent of newer materials with greater protective capabilities, flexibility, cooler to operate within, increased visibility through the helmet, and lighter weight, coupled with increased levels of protection, represents a significant improvement for EOD technician personnel, and explosive blast detonation defeat protection.
