Abstract: A composite panel includes woven fabrics and a polymer composite. The polymer composite includes Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). The woven fabrics includes basalt fibers. The basalt fibers are mineral-additive modified. Mineral-additive modified basalt fiber based PMMA composites are used for ballistic applications. Alternatives layer of aramid fabric and mineral additive modified basalt fabric based PMMA composites are also used for UV resistant ballistic applications. Lightweight sustainable sandwich ballistic panel are achieved by a reactive thermoplastic route.

Abstract: A system is disclosed herein.

Abstract: A system of manufacturing a ballistic material is disclosed herein. The system includes a preform including a three-dimensional woven fabric, a mold including a cavity, the cavity configured to receive the preform, and a port formed through the mold and into the cavity, wherein the port is configured to introduce a resin into the cavity, the resin filling the cavity and penetrating into the preform.

Abstract: A base assembly for an aircraft seat is disclosed. The base assembly may include one or more leg sub-assemblies. Each leg sub-assembly may include a front leg, a rear leg, and a link beam configured to couple the front leg to a portion of the rear leg. At least one of the front leg or the rear leg being at least partially formed of a hybrid composite structure. The link beam being at least partially formed of the hybrid composite structure. The hybrid composite structure formed of at least a first material and a second material, where the first material is different from the second material, the first material including a thermoplastic material configured to provide ductility for the base assembly, the second material being a composite material configured to provide strength for the base assembly.
