Capabilities
Advanced materials, engineered at the nano-scale level are providing breakthrough capabilities for projectiles, penetrators, and armors. Key to their development is the ability to model nano-mechanical behavior so as to formulate constitutive laws for higher scale simulations. ES3 provides analytical simulation support and application of coatings to developers of projectiles, penetrators, and armor.
