This work presents both experimental and computational ballistic results of layered Aluminum Nitride (A1N) targets. An L/D = 6 tungsten penetrator is used to impact AlN targets at a nominal impact velocity of 2100m/s. The primary objective of this work is to determine the ballistic performance of la

During the 30-year lifetime of the Space Station, NASA is concerned that a large piece of orbital debris could strike one of the inhabited or laboratory modules. The modules are basically cylindrical pressure vessels, 4.3 meters in diameter and 9.1 meters long, made of AI 2219-T87. There is a potent
Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) films have been utilized as interplanetary dust detectors for many years in a variety of space environments. PVDF serves as a dust detector by producing a 'depolarization' charge upon hypervelocity impact. Previous instruments have relied on empirical calibrations to e
