SIMULATING AN IMPACT ON COMPOSITE DAMPING ELEMENTS

Abstract

A model of dynamic deformation and fracture of composite materials is developed. This model accounts for the significant nonlinearity of shock loading diagrams with hardening, which depends on strain rate. An approach is used in which the dependence of ultimate strength on damage parameters and their variation rate is introduced in the form of constitutive relations. The proposed relations are similar to those of the Johnson—Cook model, but stresses are expressed via damage parameters and their variation rate rather than in terms of plastic deformations and the variation rate of plastic deformations. On the basis of the developed model, the impact fracture of a tubular profile made of a composite material based on carbon fiber and a polymer binder are numerically simulated. The influence of the orientation of unidirectional layers of a composite on specific absorption energy is investigated.
