چکیده انگلیسی
Shear thickening fluids (STFs) are a special class of field responsive non-Newtonian fluids which exhibit transition from low viscosity to high viscosity state when these are subjected to shear deformation, particularly when the shear rate exceeds a critical value termed as the critical shear rate (CSR). Due to this unique characteristic of STFs, these are generally used for vibration mitigation or shock absorbance such as in vibration dampeners, hip protection pads, in protective gear for athletes etc. From the last two decades, STFs have found application in the field of ballistics, particularly in the development of special class of STF-intercalated armours called Liquid Body Armours (LBAs). These new age armours are lighter in weight and more flexible as compared to conventional heavy armours, which, infact seriously affect the mobility and agility of the soldier, especially in combat situations. Although, exhaustive studies are available which show the improvement in impact resistance of STF-treated high performance fabrics, but there are limited studies which explore the efficacy of STF treatment method. In this study, an attempt is made to understand this aspect. The low velocity impact studies were conducted on drop tower machine, while high velocity impact studies were accomplished on in-house designed and fabricated Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) experimental set-up. It was observed that when STF was kept in liquid form between layers of ballistic fabrics, the composite exhibited reduced performance, whereas, STF-treated ballisic composites exhibited enhanced impact toughness at high strain rates in SHPB testing.
