SIMULATIONS OF HYPERVELOCITY IMPACTS WITH SMOOTHED PARTICLE HYDRODYNAMICS

This paper is devoted to the results of Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations of high velocity impacts on thin aluminium plates using LS-DYNA computer code. The numerical results of the damage produced on plates are compared with experimental data. Two simulations are presented : - An aluminium sphere impacting an aluminium plate at 6.64 km/s - A steel sphere impacting an aluminium plate at 5.53 km/s Experimental and numerical results are in good agreement.
