Hello Everyone,
I am seeking some guidance in a topic related to my group dissertation subject. The exact title of the dissertation is 'Investigation on the effect of using nano-ceramics on the strength of composite plates subjected to dynamic (impact) load.'. I had initially been bestowed the job of investigating the characteristics of Impact -.-, so far I have identified that an Impact refers to a large force that occurs over a very small period of time (collision). I have also identified & explained some of the different principles that have important use in understanding the behaviour of colliding bodies, these are:
What other principles relate to Impact loading?
I have also been given the task to study the effect an Impact has on materials, & what properties materials require to be able to withstand impact loads. Know here is what I have wrote about so far:
What other effects should I be considering?
What other material properties increase impact resistance?
How can nano-ceramics be incorporated into composite plates?
What composite material can be considered?
Cheers everyone.

- Impulse
- Conservation of Linear Momentum
- Coefficient of Restitution
- Inelastic & Elastic Collisions
What other principles relate to Impact loading?
I have also been given the task to study the effect an Impact has on materials, & what properties materials require to be able to withstand impact loads. Know here is what I have wrote about so far:
- Materials are more brittle with impact loads
- Hertizian contact stress
- Impact resistance decreases with Young's modulus of elasticity
- Resilient materials have better impact resistance
- Ductile materials are more brittle at high velocity loading rates
What other effects should I be considering?

Cheers everyone.
