The present study deals with the finite element analysis (FEA) of hybrid 3D orthogonal woven composite (3DOWC) subjected to ballistic impact by a conical‐cylindrical projectile. The present simulation incorporates the micro‐meso‐macro transition approach is used for developing the intricate design of the target plate. The glass fibers are used for Warp and Weft direction, and Kevlar fibers are considered for the z‐direction binder yarns. The model is approved by utilizing 2D weave design, which has been examined by impacting the conical‐cylindrical projectile and compared with the available literature. Furthermore, the ballistic analysis is extended for the Hybrid 3DOWC, where the effect of residual velocity and energy absorptions are studied. The study highlights that z‐direction fibers have not much influence on energy absorption for both the hybrid and unhybridized 3DOWC. Furthermore, the influence of hybridization will subside with the increased velocities.

弹道冲击混合3D正交编织复合材料的多尺度建模有限元分析

本研究涉及受圆锥-圆柱弹丸弹道冲击的混合3D正交编织复合材料（3DOWC）的有限元分析（FEA）。本模拟结合了微观-宏观-宏观过渡方法，用于开发目标板的复杂设计。玻璃纤维用于经向和纬向，而凯夫拉尔纤维则用于z方向粘合纱。该模型是通过利用2D编织设计批准的，该设计已经通过对圆锥形圆柱弹丸的撞击进行了检查，并与现有文献进行了比较。此外，弹道分析扩展到混合3DOWC，其中研究了残余速度和能量吸收的影响。研究强调，z方向纤维对于杂化3DOWC和未杂化3DOWC的能量吸收影响不大。此外，杂交的影响将随着速度的增加而减弱。
