Computational Modeling Of Shock Wave Propagation In A Layered Composites, Nicholas Ryan Scott
Computational Modeling Of Shock Wave Propagation In A Layered Composites, Nicholas Ryan Scott
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Modeling and simulation of a metallic flyer plate impacting a woven glass-fiber reinforced plastic (GRP) plate at different velocities was performed using the ALE3D© finite element code. The one-dimensional strain-based shock wave propagation experimental data in terms of time history of GRP’s back surface material particle velocity, available in open literature [1], were utilized in the calibration of a continuum damage mechanics (CDM) model. The experimental data included D7 Tool Steel and 7075-T6 aluminum flyer plates and two different GRP thicknesses (6.8 mm or 13.6 mm) with varying impact velocities in the range of about 8.5 m/s to 418 m/s. …
