Abstract

For structures that carry dynamic loads, the requirements are imposed for safety reasons. The requirements apply to both materials and construction. This requires searching for optimal calculation methods, including geometric and physical nonlinearity, which are results from the construction of the structure. An example is various ballistic structures (ballistic shields), which are hit by bullets in which huge energy is accumulated. In this case, the hitting in the shield with a bullet can be considered as a load due to mass impact. Loads at high strain rates are described by various mathematical models. The mathematical model is complex because a large number of "coefficients" is required, moreover, the obtained test results are not always repeatable. The paper presents the results of shooting multilayer plates with composite materials with 7.62 mm caliber bullets. The shield consisted of three layers, the outer layers were steel or aluminum, the inner layer was natural or modified wood. The samples had the shape of a shield and were 50 mm in diameter and of different thickness. The results of the research allowed to assess the impact of wood modification on its puncture resistance.
