Numerical Studies on Low-Velocity Impact Failure Response of Al 1100 under Blunt and Hemispherical Impactors

Article Preview

Abstract:

Numerical simulation is performed to study the deformation and failure modes of Al 1100 plate of 2.4 mm thickness, subjected to low-velocity impact. Blunt and hemispherical nose shaped impactors are used in this study. The quasi-static tensile test is performed at a strain rate of 0.01/s to obtain the Johnson-Cook material parameters which are used in numerical simulation software, ABAQUS/CAE to perform impact analysis. Mesh convergence study is carried out to decide the appropriate number of elements for numerical analysis. The impact behavior of Al 1100 plate for each impactor shapes are studied at 22 J impact energy. Result indicate that increased in the nose radius of impactor will increase the amount of deformation energy for aluminium plate.
