Abstract
Carbon-fiber fabric(s) or alumina-fiber fabric(s) sandwiched between t wo 2-mm thick aluminum plates, are impacted by a high velocity project ile up to 2.7 km/s. The projectile penetrates into the specimen and re sults in a perforation hole. Based on the observations of the hole, th e following is suggested. The interface affects the shape of the holes , a punch-out hole is generated in 10 sheets of the alumina-fiber fabr ics, but no clear hole is made in 10 sheets of carbon-fiber fabrics.
