EFFECT OF FLEXIBILITY ON LOW VELOCITY IMPACT RESPONSE

摘要: The nature of the response compact and flexible bodies subject to low velocity impact is studied. key parameters which govern for such impacts are identified their effects on examined through numerical simulations. It shown that three non-dimensional sufficient completely structures. By knowing conditions as well maximum force can be predicted without running a simulation or conducting an experiment. also different structures with arbitrary boundary scaled in similar way. anticipated results will useful designing loading, providing guidelines choosing appropriate simple models scaling experimental between
