Bird strikes are an important phenomenon that must be taken into consideration when designing aircraft. A bird impact experiment provides a direct method to examine the bird strike resistance. However, the design of the aircraft structures usually involves many iterations of design-manufacturing-test and conducting bird impact experiments is not only time consuming but also costly. The aim of this work is to show the application of test verified numerical simulation for the design of composite cowlings of the high-speed helicopter.

Coupler’s energy absorption part is made up of elastic buffer and crushing tube. Elastic buffer is used to absorb impact energy produced from locomotive’s normal running process while the crushing tube is used to absorb the ones produced from accidental impact process. It is one of key problems to solve in locomotive’s impact simulation process that to establish and manage the coupler’s equivalent model. The article simulates coupler’s absorbing of energy in impact process at two operating conditions. According to the relative energy absorption design standards, the article evaluates the correctness of the established coupler’s equivalent model. The simulation result indicates that the established coupler’s equivalent model satisfies the design requests.
