Taylor Impact Test and Penetration of Reinforced Concrete Targets by Cylindrical Composite Rods
… DYNA3D to analyze two problems: (a) the normal impact of a cylindrical monolithic or composite rod against a smooth flat rigid target, (commonly known as the Taylor impact test), and (b) the penetration of composite and monolithic steel cylindrical rods into reinforced concrete targets. The …

Investigation of Taylor impact test of isotropic and anisotropic material through geometrical characteristics of specimens
… aluminum-lithium alloy) are investigated using Taylor impact tests. Coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) are used to measure the shape of specimens after the deformation. The geometrical data enables us to determine the plastic distributions and the dynamic yield stresses of specimens. A raise …

Lagrangian methods for ballistic impact simulations/
… Lagrangian methods for simulating ballistic impact with the ultimate goal of finding a universal, robust and scalable computational framework to assist in the design of armor systems. An overview is provided of existing Lagrangian strategies including particle methods, meshless methods, and …

Finite Element Analysis of Adiabatic Shear Bands in Impact and Penetration Problems
… uranium (DU) and tungsten heavy alloy (WHA) rods impacting at normal incidence both a rigid, planar target and a thick, deformable steel target. Each deformable material is modeled as elastic thermoviscoplastic; the flow stress increases with an increase in the effective plastic strain and …
