The analysis on the basic mechanical properties of hot-rolled H-shaped steel beam under lateral impact load was done by use of ABAQUS. The reliability of the FEA model was verified through comparing with the existing experiment of H-shaped steel beam subjected to lateral impact. And then, this FEA model was used to research the dynamic response of the H-shaped steel beam subjected to lateral impact. The main parameters include the impact energy, mass and impact velocity of the impact hammer. The results indicate that the finite element analysis model built in this paper could accurately simulate the process of hot-rolled H-shaped steel beam under lateral impact load and the impact energy, mass and impact velocity have different influences on the dynamic response of H-shaped steel beam.

Concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) structures have been widel y used in civil engineering structures, due to its good behaviors under both static and dynamic loads. In this paper, numerical studies were carried out to investigate the anti-impact behavior of partially concrete-filled steel tubular (PCFST) columns under lateral impact loads. Finite element analysis (FEA) model was established using ABAQUS. To validate the FEA model, the numerical results were compared with experimental results. Moreover, parameter analysis was carried out to further study the anti-impact behaviors of the PCFST columns. The concrete filling height, the impact energy, the impact direction, and the yield strength of steel were the main parameters considered in this study. The dynamic responses under the impact load, including the impact force, the failure mode, and the displacement response, were all analyzed. The results of parameter analysis showed that the anti-impact behaviors of the PCFST columns significantly increased when the concrete filling height or the yield strength of steel increased greatly. The impact energy and direction also greatly affected the anti-impact behaviors of the PCFST columns.

Reinforcement Distribution

Dynamic impact load has an extensive application area in civil engineering, including highway, military, and marine structures. Many researchers have studied the performance of reinforced concrete (RC) columns under impact load. However, very limited work has been conducted on the effect of bundle reinforced concrete (BRC) columns subjected to lateral impact load. In this study, to examine the behavior of RC columns under impact load, numerical simulations of one with normal reinforcement distribution and three different bundles of reinforced concrete column specimens have been conducted using an explicit finite element (FE) analysis. In addition to the bundle reinforcement distribution, the parameters considered in the study are impact scenarios, impact velocity, pure axial load, and impact locations. From the numerical analysis, it has been found that bundling of longitudinal reinforcement does not only improve the impact capacity but also stabilizes the fluctuating response of impacted reinforced concrete columns. Both peak impact force and maximum lateral displacements of impacted BRC columns increase with increasing initial impact velocity. The numerical results also show that pure axial load slightly improved the impact capacity of the BRC columns. Finally, while the global failure of the RC column governs the response of repeatedly impacted BRC columns, failure characteristics of the single impacted columns are associated with local concrete damage at the impact zone.

The Impact

In recent years, the use of partially concrete-filled steel tubular (PCFST) columns has been considered due to their cost-effectiveness and reduction of structural weight in bridge piers and building columns. One of the critical discussions about these columns is their impact resistance. In this article, the dynamic response of hollow and PCFST columns with elliptical cross-section under simultaneous loading of static axial compressive load and lateral impact load is presented using finite element modeling in ABAQUS software (FEA). To ensure the accuracy of the numerical modeling, the analysis results are compared with the results of previous works. The effects of different parameters such as impact velocity, the height of the impact location, the impact direction, the impact block mass, the size and shape of the impact block are investigated in this paper. The results of the numerical analysis showed that the partially filled specimens had better performance than the hollow specimens. The changes in impact direction and impact block mass parameters have a significant effect on the failure of the columns, especially when they are under high impact velocity. Changing the impact velocity significantly affects the impact resistance of specimens. However, the size and shape of the impact block did not have a significant effect on the displacement of the column against the impact loading.

Dynamic response of ALPORAS aluminium foam has been investigated experimentally and numerically. The dynamic response is quantified by the force produced as the foam deforms as a function of time. Quasi-static tests are conducted to determine the quasi-static properties of the foam. In the impact test, the aluminium foams are fired towards a rigid load-cell and the force signals developed are recorded. Experimental dynamic stress is also compared with theoretical prediction using existing theory. Finite element model is constructed using LS-DYNA to simulate the impact test. Results from the experiment, finite element analysis and theoretical prediction are in acceptable agreement. Finally, parametric studies have been conducted using the verified model to investigate the effect of impact velocity and relative density towards the dynamic response of the foam projectile. It is found that the dynamic response of the foam is more sensitive towards impact velocity as compare with the foam relative density.

To investigate the effect of indenter shape, impact energy, and impact velocity on the rock breakage performance, a test device for rock fragmentation by indenter impact was developed to obtain the rock breakage volume, depth, and area under different impact conditions. By comparing the rock breakage volume, depth, area, and specific energy consumption, the results show that indenter shape has a greater influence on the rock breakage performance than that of the impact velocity with the same impact energy, and impact energy plays a decisive role in rock breakage performance with an identical indenter shape and impact velocity. For the lowest to highest specific energy consumption, the order of indenter shape is cusp-conical, warhead, hemispherical, spherical-arc, and flat-top under the same impact energy and velocity, but the cusp-conical indenter is damaged after several impacts. The rock breakage volume, depth, and area all increase with the increase in impact energy, but the effect of the impact velocity could be ignored under the same impact energy. In addition, the rock breakage features of the numerical simulation and experiments are similar, which show that the crushing zone close to the indenter impact point is mainly caused by the high compressive stress, and then radial cracks are caused by the accumulative energy release. The findings of this study will contribute to progress in the performance and efficiency for percussive rock drilling.

The Impact

In high-speed gear drive and power transmission, system impact failure mode always occurs due to the sudden impact and shock loading during the system in running. Therefore, study on the amount of impact energy that can be absorbed by a gear is vital. Impact test equipment has been designed and modelled for the purpose to study the impact energy on gear tooth. This paper mainly focused on Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of impact energy that occurred during simulation involving the impact test equipment modelling. The simulation was conducted using Abaqus software on critical parts of the test equipment to simulate the impact event and generate impact data for analysis. The load cell in the model was assumed to be free fall at a certain height which gives impact load to the test gear. Three different type of material for the test gear were set up in this simulation. Results from the simulation show that each material possesses different impact energy characteristic. Impact energy values increased along with the height of load drop. AISI 1040 were found to be the toughest material at 3.0m drop that could withstand up to 44.87N.m of impact energy. These data will be used to validate data in physical experiments in further study.

Finite element model of both the single-layer Schwedler reticulated dome with the span of 50m and a Cuboid impactor were developed, incorporating ANSYS/LS-DYNA. PLASTIC_KINEMATIC (MAT_003) material model which takes stain rate into account was used to simulate steel under impact load. The automatic point to surface contact (NODES TO SURFACE) was applied between the dome and impact block. Three stages of time history curve of the impact force on the apex of the single-layer Scheduler reticulated dome including the impact stage, stable stalemate stage, the decaying stage were generalized according to its dynamic response. It must be pointed out that the peak of the impact force of the single-layer reticulated dome increase with the increase of the weight and the velocity of the impact block, but the change of the velocity of the impact block is more sensitive than the change of weight of the impact block for the effect of the peak of the impact force, and a platform value of the impact force of the single-layer reticulated dome change near a certain value, and the duration time of the impact gradually increase. Then four stages of time history curve of the impact displacement were proposed according to the dynamic response of impact on the apex of the single-layer reticulated dome based on numerical analysis. Four stages include in elastic deformation stage, plastic deformation stage, elastic rebound stage, free vibration stage in the position of the residual deformation.

The dynamic response of fluid-filled hemispherical shell in mass impact is studied by experiment using DHR9401. Combining the time history of impact force with experimental observation of the deformation process, it can be seen that the dynamic response can be divided into four stages: the flattening around the impact point, the forming and expanding outward of shell plastic hinge, the plastic edge region flatten by the punch, and elastic recovery. The experimental results show that: Because the shell filled with liquid, the local impact load that the shell suffered is translated into area load and loads on the inner shell uniformly, so that it has a high carrying capacity. Numerical simulation is used to study the time history of energy absorption of different shell structures. The result shows that the crashworthiness of sandwich fluid-filled shell is improved greatly. Under the certain impact energy, deformation of its inner shell is very small, which can provide effective security space.

This paper studies the impact performance of concrete filled FRP-steel tube which is a composed structure made by filling concrete into steel tube and wrapping outside with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) sheet. Numerical simulations have been conducted to study the dynamic response of fixed-pined supported beams of concrete filled FRP-steel tubes. The finite element models of concrete filled FRP-steel tubes are established to analyse its lateral impact dynamic characteristics under different loading situations, with respective kinds of FRP and thicknesses of steel tubes. The impact force and displacement histories were recorded. Comparing to the traditional concrete filled steel tube structure, the concrete filled FRP-steel tube indicates a promising structure with more advantages in the mechanical and constructional performance. Especially with its higher loading-carrying capacity and better toughness, it is more adaptable for the structures subjected to accidental impact load. Analytical solution is compared with experimental result to show the correctness and the effectiveness of present study.

The Impact

The Indonesian railway transportation has adventages in term of capacity, efficiency, trafic, and safety compared to the other types of land transportations. At present, the Indonesian Railway Company has 519 locomotives, and 1643 passenger cars, that transport about 184 million man-trip each year[1,2]. Unfortunately, the rate of train collisions in Indonesian railway system was very high. In the last ten years, 2352 train accidents have happened which claimed 997 lives and left 2638 people injured. The record shows that 110 of those accidents were train to train collisions[1]. This paper consider the structural impact behavior of Indonesian passenger railway car subject to collision forces. This characteristic is very important parameter for passenger protection during the course of collision[3-5]. The vehicle structure should be able to absorb the huge impact energy or impact force to ensure the passenger safety[6-9]. The impact energy of cars-train is evaluated using the principle of multibody dynamics[10,11]. The vehicle structure under impact load is analyzed using the finite element method. The principal of symmetry is adopted, so the collision scene could be simulated as collision between the vehicle with a rigid wall. The analysis result shows that the structure is collapse at the passenger area (saloon) which is in agreement with the real collision. Modification is proposed to protect the passenger area by introducing crush zone area and impact energy absorber.
