lating structural response to impact, but these are typically complicated, time-consuming, and usable only on a problem-by-problem basis.

Designers need

a quick, convenient, widely applicable method for this purpose. In a previous report [1],

a method was developed for constructing a de-

sign curve which predicts the response of a givev type of structure to impact loading.

This curve gives the maximum strain in the structure, which may have

various dimensions and material ptoperties, due to impacts involving a certain range of impact masses and velocities.

Design curves are

also developed for predicting the response of beams and plates to impact by small impactors.

In each instance, both analytical methods and impact

experiments are employed in generating the design curves.

In dealing with low-velocity impact problems, it is convenient to divide them into two domains, based on the ratio M of the mass of the structure to The motion of the impactor and the

response of the structure for a large impactor differ greatly from those for a small impactor.

The two domains will be treated separately; the assumptions

and final design curves are also different for the two domains. In impacts where the mass ratio M is

small (large impactor),

it

has

been observed that multiple collisions occur and that the general motion of the impactor follows the path of the structure at the impact point (Fig. la). The final rebound of the impactor takes place after the structure has reached its maximum deflection.

Further, the entire event is generally more pro-

longed than the fundamental period of structural vibration.

On the other hand, when M is large (small impactor), only a single,

S!-

.udden collision occurs, after which the impactor rebounds and the structure continues to vibrate freely, reaching its maximum deflection at a later time (Fig. lb).

The sudden rebound of the impactor

is due chiedly to the elastic resistance of the structure and the iqmator to local indentation,

In [1], six analytical models of impact were examined, including two classical one-degree-of-freedom models; a two-degrees-of-freedom model which accounts for contact effects; a solution by Clebsech [2], which assumes plastic impact and treats the beam with attached impactor as a free-vibration problem;

a mudified Clebsch solution due to McQuillen et al. [3]; and Timoshenko's solution 14], which couples the impactor displacement with the beam deflection using Hertz's law for contact deformations.

The dimensionless parameters

which determine the peak impact response according to each solution method were derived. It was shown in

[1] that, for those models which neglect contact effects,

the maximum strain due to impact, when properly normalized to i, is a function of the mass ratio K only and is

independent of any other parameters.

These

solution methods, however, are generally not suited for treating problems involving small impactors.

Conversely,

the two models that include contact

effects indicate a dependence of C on M and another parameter, and are useful over the entire range of M.

For large impactors, it was demonstrated that the

dependence on the other parameter is weak, so that a single c vs. M curve approximately represents all impact situations,

in addition, when data from

"assorted impact experiments were plotted in coordinates of c and M, a single curve could be drawn through all data points, with about + 303 verlation, for

NADC-78259 6O The most sophisticated solution method applicable to problems involving small impactors, the Timoshenko solution, involves a nonlinear integral

equation which can only be solved numerically on a problem-by-problem basis, and is thus not convenient for developing a design curve.

However, by making

the simplifying assumption that the structure does not appreciably deflect

during the short period of actual contact, the problem uncouples into two parts - the elastic Hertzian impact of a sphere on a semi-ihfinite body, and the vibration response of the structure to a dynamic load (i.e., the contact force).

This leads to an approximate relationship (for each type of structure)

between the parameters Z, M, and X, which may be further simplified to a simple equation in the mass ratio H and a new generalized strain for small impactors e* (Section III).

By comparison with experimental data and with

calculations involving the complete Timoshenko solution, the form of this relationship is shown to be useful as a design guide. In Section IV, procedures for using the design curves presented in this report are described,

and a few examples are giveta.

Also included are methods

for constructing new design curves for structures not treated in this report, based on either analytical tools or impact experiments.

DESIGN CURVE FOR IMPACTS BY LARGE IMPACTORS

For impact cases where the mass of the structure is small compared to the mass of the impactor,

the structure may be assumed to behave as a simple

spring, or as a one-degree-of-freedom mass-spring system.

Details of this

approach as applied to simply supported beams were presented in Ref.[l]; in this section, this impact model is briefly reviewed, because it will be useful

lis

in the development of parameters in plate impact problems.

These parameters

are employed in constructing a design curve for predicting the response of

plates to impacts by large masses.

Finally, by examining data from a large

number of experiments and by studying impact solutions using more sophisticated analytical techniques,

Tioshenko Solution of Treneverre Plate

gmet,

Tim. hanko's approach for solving transverse impast problem on simple

beamn by coupling Hertz's law of contact with the Suler beam equation has beas 17

NADC 76259 60 extended to the case of a simply supported rectangular plate by Bringen (5] and more recently to the case of a simply supported anisotropic laminated plate by Sun and Chattopadhyay (6].

In this section we review the salient

points of the latter solution and show how it may be used to develop an impact design curve for anisotropic plates.

In addition, a normalized form of the

equations corresponding to a special case of this solution is derived, so that the dimensionless parameters governing the peak strain response may be identified.

Finally, a series of numerical computations is performed, in

which each of the derived parameters is systematically varied in order to demonstrate the sianificance of each parameter in describing the response to a given impact. L.

Description of Solution Method The anisotropic plate equations of Whitney and Pagano [7) are used

to predict the plate motiou.

Dimensionless Form of Timoshenko Solutions a.

Plate Impact

By expressing the Timoshenko solution in a particular normalized (dimensionless) form, the parameters governing the impact response of plates may be identified.

Specifically, it

is

shown that the generalized strain

depends on three dimensionless parameters: the mass ratio M, the aspectorthotropy ratio n, and also another paraumeter which involves the geometric and material properties governing the contact effects between the plate and the impactor. For a simply supported rectangular plate impacted at the center, let us consider the governing equation (39)

NADC-76259-0 Cotaparison with F:perimental Results

2.

In Fig. 23, the design curve for impact of plates by small masses is presented along with the results from experiments performed at Drexel.

Two

graphite-epoxy plates which were also used in the large Impactor experiments, F1 and F2, were impacted by aluminum projectiles.

These experiments were

performed using an air Sun with the projectile velocity recorded by a photodiode system.

Data from theae experiments are tabulated in Appendix B. As

can be seen in Fig. 23, the agre.ment between the theoretical design curve and the design curve based on experimental results is of the same order as in the large impactor case;

that is, the experimental curve is about 40% below the

theoretical curve and has approximately the same slope. Also tabulated in Appendix E are experimental data found in SchvioSer

Simply Suoported and Clamped Plates The procedures for using the design curves for rectangular plates is

similar to those outlined above for the beam.

For convenience, we have re-

peated here the design curves for simply supported and clamped plates impacted by large impactors (Figs. 26 and 27)s and for simply supported plates impacted by small impactors (Fig. 28).

The first step in using any of these curves is

to compute the mass ratio M according to Eq.

Construction of New Desgn Curves by .xperiment. For beans and plates with boundary condiltiona different from those con-

f

sidered in this report, desigu curves way also be constructed based on impact experiments.

For these structures, the parameters governing the impact re-

&sponehave the same form, but the relationships (and thus the design curves)

80

NADC-78259 -60 are different.

For still

other structures (e.g., shells, rods), new param-

eters may have to be defined. 1.

Impact St.ain Curves To construct new design curves for large impactors, one may perform a

series of impact experiments and measure the maximum bending strain which occurs in the structure during each impact.

Then, compute the value of the

generalized strain according to the appropriate formula: cb k Er for beams c .

i

m.a

-

k for plates

Plot one point for each impact in e vs. M coordinates, Logarithmic scales are most convenient.

Finally, estimate a curve to fit these points.

This

design curve may then be used to predict the response of similar structures having different dimewious subject to various impact conditious, as described in Szection A above. 2.

Critical Impact Velocity Curves In simple impact-to-failure experiments when the strain is not simul-

taneously measured, all that is determined Is the lowest impact velocity (or critical velocity) at which the structure failA.

However. this is sufficient

to construct a design curve useful in predicting failures due to other impact situations. t•

For each exporimat, the dimensionless critical velocity v, defiaed for plates in Eq.

(33) and for beamu

a4 Eq, (62),

is plotted vs. the *As&

ratio M. Then these points may be connected to form the design curve.

-

"81

NADC-78259 -60 Note that for different impact conditions, different mechanisms (bending, shear, torsion, etc.) may be responsible for failure; consequently,

several

design curves may be required, especially to completely describe a series of widely varying impact experiments. Finally, note that since the contact effects depend on the impact velocity, through a non-linear relation, this approach is not useful in the small impactor domain. C.

Construction of New Design Curves by Analytical Tools Using analytical methods, design curves for some structures which are

not treated in this report may be constructed.

We can cffer a few suggestions

on approaches to follow in order to construct such curves.

each of vhich exhibits different kinegmatic behavior.

Specifically, massive impactors have been observed to produce mult4plt impacts, tthe peak response of the structure depending on the initial kinetic energy of the impactor; in contrast, small impactors strike the structure only once, the maximum response being governed chiefly by the impactor's Initial moyaentum and by contact effects at the impact point.

These differences in impact-:

Design curves have been developed here for predicting the impact response of simply supported beams and simply supported and clamped-edge anisvopic Theae curves have been constructed using both results of analytical

To simplify the analysis of the bending and vibration of specially orthotropic plates, Timoshenko and Woinowsky-Krieger

j13] have suggested the approx-

imation

H - fDI1D22

(Fl)

where H is defined as

H E D12 + 2D66 An advantage of using this assumption is that the equation governing bending of an orthotropic plate may be transformed$ through a simple change in variables, into an equation similar to the equation governing bending of an isotropic plate. By reversing the transformation, a solution for the deflection of an Isotropic plate may be converted into the corresponding solution for an orthotropic plate. This is done in Appendix B for a centrally loaded rectangular plate with clamped boundary conditions; the approximation (F1)

is

instrumental in this instance

"because no general solution exists for the orthotropic case. Like all approximations, error into the solution.

however,
