Impact resistance is one of the basic properties of thin-walled coating structures that is of vast importance in the aerospace industry. Being able to absorb the energy of impact force, having resistance to puncture and being able to limit internal damage to the structure affect the continued load capacity of the component. Current aerospace designs utilize composite and hybrid materials. The work compares the low-velocity impact resistance of carbon fibres-reinforced polymer, aluminium carbon reinforced aluminium and hybrid titanium carbon laminates. In the assessment measurable, experimental and analytic evaluation criteria for the phenomenon of impact and the reaction of the material to this type of load, based on diverse physical foundations were utilized. It was demonstrated that a laminate based on titanium layers has at least two times higher impact resistance than an aluminium based laminate, and at least six times greater impact resistance than its conventional carbon-epoxy equivalent.

耐冲击性是薄壁涂层结构的基本特性之一，在航空航天工业中极为重要。能够吸收冲击力的能量，具有抗穿刺性并且能够限制结构的内部损坏会影响组件的持续负载能力。当前的航空航天设计使用复合材料和混合材料。这项工作比较了碳纤维增强聚合物，铝碳增强铝和混合钛碳层压板的低速抗冲击性。在评估中，采用了基于各种物理基础的冲击现象以及材料对此类载荷的反应的可衡量的实验和分析评估标准。
