The response of impulsively loaded sandwich plates
… results in large plastic deformations known as Mode I Failure. Mode II and III failure of the plates, where failure by tearing occurs, is omitted. The results of the single plate analysis are compared to experimental and analytical work. Criteria for comparison include mid-plate deflections, …

A Mesh Objective Algorithm for Modeling Mode-I Cracks Using a Standard Finite Element Formulation
… efficient mesh objective algorithm for modeling mode-I cracks is developed and implemented within a standard finite element formulation. The algorithm applies the crack opening displacements across the standard nodal degrees of freedom that is consistent with formalism of the …

Response of plates subjected to air-blast and buried explosions
… pendulum. The experimental plates exhibited only Mode I failure, which is plastic deformation, enabling the effect of different loading configurations on the transient and final plate deformation profiles to be identified. Numerical simulations of the experiments were developed to further the …
