NSF-funded project to study multiscale high-speed impacts on materials
High speed impacts occur often in the aerospace and defense industries – from a bird striking an airplane to a micrometeorite colliding with a satellite. Understanding how materials such as plastics, metals and ceramics that make up airplanes and satellites respond to high-speed impacts can help engineers to design strong, lightweight and impact-resistant structures.
