A realistic and technical illustration summarizing the process of creating advanced ceramic armor, designed for a thesis presentation. On the left, two piles of powders: one white (alumina) and one black (silicon carbide). In the middle, a schematic Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) press with an electric bolt symbol, and next to it a microwave oven with wave lines, representing innovative sintering processes. Below them, two dense ceramic discs: one black, and one white with small black spots inside (showing the composite). On the right, a composite ceramic tile is struck by a bullet, which shatters dramatically on impact. In the background, a modern military armored vehicle symbolizes the final application with the ceramic plate integrated. Below, two clear icons: a euro symbol with an equal sign (indicating stable cost), and a shield with an upward arrow (indicating higher performance). Minimalist background, clean, realistic, visually appealing, suitable for scientific presentation. See more
