Response of Fiber Reinforced Composite Structures to Ballistic Loads

Abstract:

Explosion and high velocity impact are typical ballistic loads of structures. This paper describes the problem of wave propagation in solid rocket booster part. Such waves originate by acting of explosion waves or by high velocity impact of solid parts on the structure. Computational simulations are applied to the problem of propagation of shock waves in a composite material reinforced by carbon fibres which are supposed to be much stiffer than the matrix. The shock wave in such material is influenced by reflexion and refraction on the interface between fibres and the matrix and by the interaction of then waves. The shock wave is strongly damped in such composites in this way. In the present study, the response of composite laminates under velocity impact loading will be investigated using MATLAB and ABAQUS software.
