• Recent advances in modeling and experiments of Kevlar ballistic fibrils, fibers, yarns and flexible woven textile fabrics – a review (2017, background): “Frictional mechanisms, including fiber breakage at the yarn cross-overs, flattening and rupture of fibers and yarn pull out, are also physically observed.(40) Severe flattening of fibers is observed for a hemispherical and flat headed projectile impact.”
• An analysis of deformation and energy absorption modes of shear thickening fluid treated Kevlar fabrics as soft body armour materials (2013, background): “It has been noted that when the projectile velocity is so high that it can pierce the target, the energy absorption goes down [3,4].”
