Dynamic Test of Bird Strike on a Flat Plate Made from LY-12 Aluminium

Article Preview

Abstract:

Tests of bird strike have been carried out on plate made from LY-12 Aluminium. The test was down with the projectile impacting the target perpendicularly at velocity of 40m/s, 80m/s, 120m/s respectively. The displacement-time history curves and strain-time history curves of on LY-12 Aluminium plate were measured. The good agreement of the results between two specimens in one group indicated that the results tested in the presnet paper are reliable. The dynamic response of the plate and damage modes of the bird influenced by striking velocity were analyzed. The peak value of the displacement linear enlarged with the increasing of the striking velocity. The test results in the present paper provided valuable data for aircraft design impacted by bird, and also provided abundant test datas for the numerical simulation model applied in bird striking.
