The low velocity impact response of a range of foam-based sandwich structures has been investigated using an instrumented falling-weight impact tower. Initially, the rate-sensitivity of the skin and core materials was investigated through a series of ยฏexure and indentation tests. Here, it was shown
The ballistic impact of a massive, effectively 1-D plate on an initially stationary foam layer is considered. It is shown that four discrete velocity regimes must be considered. Two of these regimes are of major interest for ballistic impact studies. Regime 2 considers the case when the initial velo
A new model to predict the penetration and perforation of concrete slabs impacted by low velocity missiles, is presented. The two-stage model incorporates a first stage penetration algorithm into an infinite medium and a second stage of punching shear. The transition between stages is determined and
A simple and computationally ecient adaptive ยฎnite element analysis strategy has been adopted for accurate and reliable evaluation of contact force under low velocity impact. Contact of a spherical and cylindrical impactor on isotopic plates is considered. Adaptive mesh reยฎnement enables the ยฎnite e
