<p><p>Hello, I’m looking for help. I’ve been trying to simulate a low-caliber impact on a Kevlar plate for over a month.<\/p><p>I modeled the Kevlar with the MAT_ENHANCED_COMPOSITE_DAMAGE option from some parameters obtained from a paper which I will attach “Finite Element Analysis on ballistic impact performance of multi-layered bulletproof vest impacted by 9 mm bullet” from this same paper.
