The Energy Absorption of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer under Different Impact Speed

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to investigate the energy absorption of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) under different impact velocity, ABAQUS finite element analysis software was used to simulate the impact experiments under the velocities of 1~100m/s. The kinetic energy reduction of the bullet was analyzed. The results shows that: the energy absorption of the composites panel improves with the initial impact velocity increasing, while as the velocity increasing to a certain value, such energy absorption approaches a constant value. And taking further analysis found that property of impact resistance of CFRP has a speed effect, with the strain rate increasing, the dynamic mechanical properties improve.
