The paper presents comparison of microstructure and hardness of Cu-Al-Ni shape memory alloy before and after heat treatment (quenching at 900°C/60 min/water and tempering at 300°C/60 min/water). Microstructural analysis was obtained by optical microscopy (OM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive spectrometr...

In this work we studied the response of newly developed armored steel plates PROTAC 500 to the ballistic testing with armored piercing bullets with a core of tungsten carbide, charge 7.62 mm. Interactions between the bullets and the steel plate was investigated by standard metallographic and mechanical testing methods. We were interested in the geo...
