Relation between Actual Mass and Simulation Mass of Far-Field Underwater Explosion

Article Preview

Abstract:

The far-filed underwater explosive shock wave pressure and impulse is simulated by the FEM code LS-DYNA, and the simulation results are found having rapid decay characteristic through compared with the empirical results. Based on this phenomenon, the relations, whose validity is verified through a computation instance, between simulation mass and actual mass under given initial conditional is obtained by using curve fitting. Using those equations, the accuracy of LS-DYNA to simulate far-field underwater explosive can significantly be increased, thus the ability of this code to simulate far-field underwater explosion is enhanced.
