Abstrakt: A numerical methodology based on Abaqus/Explicit has been applied in the assessment of ballistic protection of Al2024-T3 plates. The methodology has been validated using experimental results from the literature. Three types of impactor models have been employed. The first type is the spherical impactor, used in the validation of the methodology. The geometry of the remaining two impactor types has been defined based on the realistic high-velocity impactors.
