This article investigates the influence of finite element model features on Fiber Reinforced Polymer (FRP) crushing simulation results. The study focuses on two composite material tube models using single shell modeling approach. The chosen material model is MAT58 (*MAT_LAMINATED_COMPOSITE_FABRIC) from the commercial finite element analysis software LS-Dyna. The baseline models geometry and material parameters come from a model calibration conducted for lightweight vehicle investigation. Five parameters are investigated. The mesh size and the number of integration point (NIP) are generic and ERODS, TSIZE and SOFT are the non-physical parameters of MAT58. This analysis aims at discuss the influence of these parameters on the simulation results focusing on the initial force peak and the average crush load, regarding results realism and instabilities such as large elements deformation and abnormal peak values. Also, the impact of the number of CPUs involved in the simulation calculation is presented. Recommendations are given to set the mesh size and the NIP. TSIZE value should be selected regarding the simulation time step. On the other hand, ERODS has to be adjusted manually. Both are determinant for simulation robustness. Further studies are proposed to find out the reasons of large element deformation.

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 Finite Element Model

Although a large number of crash tests have been performed between passenger cars and rigid fixed traffic signs, the number of real tests focusing on crashworthiness of portable roll-up signs is still limited. Because a standard, portable roll-up sign contains at least three kinds of dissimilar materials, such as steel for the base, fiberglass for the batten, vinyl for the sign, and because the sign’s configuration is more complicated than a rigid fixed sign, it is important to simulate the behavior of portable roll-up signs in collision. In this paper, a fine-mesh finite element model precisely representing the portable roll-up sign was created and used together with a car model to simulate the process of impact with 0 and 90 degree orientation. The simulation was performed using LS-DYNA software. Techniques for creating the finite element model were discussed. Afterwards this finite element model, being validated and verified through real tests, can be used for parametric and/or robust design.

Oblique impacts between a ball and surface are a key part of many sports. Previous work has shown that a ball can slide, over-spin or roll at the end of an impact, depending on impact conditions. Inbound spin ratio was analysed to determine if it could be used to identify what is likely to happen at the end of impact for all sports regardless of surface, ball type, impact velocity, angle and spin. A predictive model, in the form of a finite element model, of a tennis ball was validated against experimental data for oblique impacts with inbound spin ratios in the range of –1 to 1. Spin ratio is defined as the product of the ball’s angular velocity and radius divided by the centre of mass velocity tangential to the surface. The finite element model was then used to determine the effect of impact conditions and ball parameters on outbound spin ratio. The study showed that for constant inbound spin ratio, outbound spin ratio was dependent on inbound velocity and angle. For constant inbound velocity and angle, decreasing the mass and increasing the stiffness of the ball through a change in material properties resulted in an increase in the maximum outbound spin ratio. Inbound spin ratio can be used to predict how a ball will rebound from a surface; however, inbound velocity and angle must be constant. Spin ratio can therefore be used to compare the impact characteristics for different ball and surface scenarios.
