In this research an armor material with constant thickness has been studied. The armor consists of two layers: one is a boron carbide ceramic and the other is Kevlar 49 fiber composite material. By using Ansys/Lsdyna software, the ballistic limit velocity of this armor has been obtained and the Heterington equation (optimum thickness of layers) has been verified for constant thickness of the armor...
