The main objective of the present study is to examine the level of enhancement in performance of three-dimensional fiber metal laminates (3DFML) under low velocity impact, when reinforced by different types of reinforcing face-sheets (i.e. fiberglass or carbon). Three layup configurations of the fabrics are considered in this investigation. The impact response of each of these configurations is assessed numerically using ABAQUS/Explicit, a commercially available finite element software. Specifically, each configuration’s impact capacity, deformation, contact time, and energy absorption capacity are evaluated. The numerical results are validated by comparison against experimental results. Moreover, a semi-empirical equation is developed for evaluating the impact capacity of such panels, as a function of impact energy, capable of accounting the influence of any type of reinforcement. Finally, the most efficient reinforced three-dimensional fiber metal laminates are identified based on their impact strength with respect to their overall weight and cost.
