Abstract

This paper reports on efficient experimental and numerical techniques used in the design of critical infrastructure. A proper design of the critical infrastructure is a key factor to guarantee requiring special protection measures regarding security and safety. The development of computer methods, such as the popular finite element method, has significantly shifted the burden of analysis from laboratory activities to those in front of a computer screen. There is, of course, a profound scientific and economic reason for this: computer simulation allows for significant savings in research due to lower prices, easy repeatability of specimens and interpolation or extrapolation of the research scope. However, excessive reliance on numerical methods can lead to the generation of erroneous results, often far from reality. It is the experiment that provides reliable observation of the actual behaviour of the material, it is the experiment that allows us to obtain data to create constitutive equations. In this paper, a focus is made on experimental and numerical methodology related to the ballistic test of dynamic perforation using a pneumatic gas gun. A thermal chamber is presented which was developed to enrich perforation analysis and results with application to different materials and within a wide range of experimental temperatures from T0 = 293 K to 533 K, whereas the numerical analysis covered a wider range of temperatures reaching 923 K. Constitutive relations and failure criteria are proposed.
