The objective of this research is to develop a system of software tools based on a new design methodology for the efficient composite armor structural design under ballistic impact loading conditions with a special focus on the joints design. An innovative design methodology, Function-Oriented Material Design (FOMD), is extended for the joint design problem of composite armor. The FOMD process ...
