Research on Damage Mechanism of Aluminum Foam Sandwich Plate Subjected to Blast Loading

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper investigated the damage degree and damage mechanism of aluminum sandwich plate subjected to blast loading by using numerical simulation method. Finite elements models of aluminum foam sandwich plates were established. The distortion and damage pattern of the sandwich plate under different masses of detonator were got by using LS-DYNA to simulate the destructive effect of shock wave and detonation product against sandwich plate. The results showed that the maximal deflection and overloading of the sandwich plates were different because of the changing of mass of detonator. This paper could provide some reference for the designing of sandwich structures.
