A three-dimensional analysis is presented for high velocity impact problems. A Lagrangian finite-element technique is formulated for tetrahedron elements subjected to large strains and displacements. The effects of material strength and compressibility are included to account for elastic-plastic flow and wave propagation. The strains and strain rates in each element are determined from the displacements and velocities of the nodes. The strains, strain rates, and material properties are used to determine the elastic stresses, plastic deviator stresses, hydrostatic pressure, and artificial viscosity. The stresses are equated to concentrated forces acting on concentrated masses at the nodes, and the nodal equations of motion are numerically integrated. Illustrative examples are also included.

In this paper, experimental investigation and theoretical analysis are carried out in an attempt to study the response of SiC ceramic matrix composite reinforced with three dimensional braided fabric(3 D C/SiC ) under high velocity impact. The results show that 3 D C/SiC composite will be turned into comminution if the pressure of the impact point resulted from the projectile impacting 3 D C/SiC composite sample is larger than 780Mpa. Based on the analysis of the mechanism of composite comminution, a theoretical model has been developed.

The ballistic resistance of GFRP laminates subjected to high-velocity impact was studied. Based on the damage situation of GFRP laminate observed from the single-stage gas gun testing, the three-dimensional (3D) model combining strain rate effect and Hashin failure criterion was established, and the result presented good agreement between the simulation and experiment. Three factors, including layer angle, stacking sequence and proportion of different layer angles, were taken into consideration in the models. An orthogonal test method was used for the analysis, which can reduce the number of simulations effectively without sacrificing the accuracy of the result. The result indicated a correlation between the ballistic resistance and layouts of GFRP laminates, on which the stacking sequence contributed stronger influence. What was more, the laminate with layer angles 0°/90° and ±45° presented greater ballistic resistance than the other angle pairs, and adopting an equal proportion of different layer angles is helpful for GFRP laminates to resist impact as well.
