Dynamic characterization of fibre reinforced composite (S-Glass) in rigid armoured vehicle / Abd Halim Haji Idris

The advent of high strength and light weight composite materials and newly developed resin materials have radically changed the concepts of advanced space structure and Armoured vehicles [I]. This high strength - to-weight or modulus-to-weight ratios of composites could also result in lighter struct...
