Abstract: The finite element method is used to analyze the failure deformation and determine the V50 value of aramid UD cloth (Uni-Directional Fabric) under 1.1 g fragment ballistic impact, and the numerical results are basically consistent with the actual experimental results. The paper concludes that the numerical method can be used to optimize the aramid UD cloth, it can more intuitively see the whole ballistic penetration process, provide accurate design methods for better applications of aramid UD cloth in the field of ballistic protection, and provide theoretical basis and data support for practical structural design.
