The ballistic limit of Carbon/Epoxy composite laminates with the finite effective area are predicted by using the quasi-static perforation test and semi-empirical formula. The perforation energy were calculated from force-displacement curve in quasi-static perforation test. Also, the actual ballistic limit and penetration energy were obtained through the high-velocity impact test. The quasi-static perforation test and high-velocity impact test were conducted for the specimens with 3 different effective areas. In the high-velocity impact test, the air gun impact tester were used, and the ballistic and residual velocity was measured. The required inputs for the semi-empirical formula were determined by the quasi-static perforation tests and high-velocity impact tests. The comparison between semi-empirical formula and high-velocity impact test results were conducted and examined. The ballistic limits predicted by semi-empirical formula were agreed well with high-velocity impact test results.

본 논문에서는 유효 면적의 제한이 있는 복합재 적층판의 탄도한계속도를 예측하였다. 탄도한계속도를 예측하기 위해 정적 압입 관통실험과 고속충격 실험 그리고 준실험식을 이용하였다. 정적압입 관통실험을 통해 하중-변위 데이터를 취득하고 이를 이용해서 관통에너지를 측정하였다. 고속충격 실험을 통해 실제 관통 속도 및 관통 에너지를 측정하였다. 정적압입 관통실험과 고속충격 실험을 통해 구한 에너지를 이용해 준실험식을 만들고, 준실험식과 고속충돌 실험결과와 비교해 보았다. 위 방법을 이용해 탄도한계속도를 예측하였고 정적압입 관통 실험과 준실험식에 의한 탄도한계속도 예측의 타당성을 확인하였다.
