Abstract Background Transparent armor systems are traditionally designed following a trial-and-error approach, which involves high development costs associated with ballistic testing. This research article presents a novel methodology, termed quasi-static multi-punch shear testing, within the domain of transparent armor systems. Objective The primary aim is to establish a correlation between multi-hit ballistic tests at Level III-A according to the NIJ 0108.01 standard, achieved through an adaptation of the single…
