Abstract: When a handgun bullet strikes body armour, it is caught in a ‘web’ of very strong fibers. These fibers absorb and disperse impact energy that is transmitted to the vest from the bullet causing the bullet to deform. The project aims at studying various materials used in bullet proof jackets and to identify the best one based on directional deformation, total deformation, shear stresses and principal stresses when it is subjected to bullet impact. Ansys-14 is used for the analysis. Data obtained could be utilized for designing an optimized bullet proof jacket.
