AB - The finite element method is used to analyze the failure deformation and  determine the V50 value of aramid UD cloth (Uni-Directional Fabric) under  1.1 g fragment ballistic impact, and the numerical results are basically  consistent with the actual experimental results. The paper concludes that  the numerical method can be used to optimize the aramid UD cloth, it can  more intuitively see the whole ballistic penetration process, provide  accurate design methods for better applications of aramid UD cloth in the  field of ballistic protection, and provide theoretical basis and data  support for practical structural design.
