With the industrialized production and widespread application of high-performance fibers, lightweight textiles have gradually replaced metals as the primary material for personal protective products. This book first systematically introduces the development history of bulletproof vests, the performance characteristics of bulletproof materials, the main structures and processing technologies of bulletproof targets, as well as the testing methods for mechanical properties and bulletproof performance. Secondly, it elaborates on the ballistic impact response characteristics and damage modes of various soft and hard bulletproof materials, along with the finite element modeling methods and finite element analysis results for ballistic impact. Finally, it summarizes the development of bulletproof products and their technologies in recent years.

This book is intended for reference by bulletproof product manufacturers, designers, and engineering and technical personnel.
