1. A composite material structure, comprising:
an aggregate comprising a plurality of particles that are graded over a range of average particle sizes, wherein said range of average particle sizes of said aggregate has a maximum size of about 30 mm in diameter and a minimum size of about 0.1 mm in diameter, wherein said aggregate is configured to a density within a range of 1,400 kg/m3 and 1,700 kg/m3; and
an encapsulant comprising an elastomer;
wherein said aggregate is distributed throughout said encapsulant such that said structure stops or significantly impedes a projectile that is incident upon said composite material structure.
