The Impact

The progressive collapse of a concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) frame structure is studied subjected to impact loading of vehicle by the finite-element software ABAQUS, in the direct simulation method (DS) and alternate path method (AP), respectively. Firstly, a total of 14 reference specimens including 8 hollow steel tubes and 6 CFST specimens were numerically simulated under transverse impact loading for verification of finite-element models, which were compared with the existing test results, confirming the overall similarity between them. Secondly, a finite-element analysis (FEA) model is established to predict the impact behaviour of a five-storey and three-span composite frame which was composed of CFST columns and steel beams under impact vehicle loading. The failure mode, internal force-time curve, displacement-time curve, and mechanical performance of the CFST frame were obtained through analyzing. Finally, it is concluded that the result by the DS method is closer to the actual condition and the collapse process of the structure under impact load can be relatively accurately described; however, the AP method is not.

In view of the vibration problem of impact ripper working under the excitation force of hydraulic ripper, finite element method is adopted for transition analysis of the structure. The impact ripper operating process is divided into two stages. Analyze the producing process of main vibration source for the structure. Establish the model of impact ripper by the finite element software SolidWorks, and its modal analysis is based on Simulation. The modal analysis gives the former eight natural frequencies and their corresponding vibration modes. Then use modal superposition method for transient analysis, calculate the dynamic response of impact ripper under the excitation force. Results show that the excitation force of hydraulic hummer significantly influences on the displacement response of structure (increasing about 145%). Continuous impact load leads to fatigue failure of structure easily, so the vibration design should be done to reduce the negative influence caused by impact vibration.

By applying finite element software ANSYS/LS-DYNA, finite element models of front bulkhead and main cabin are established, which aims to assess the dynamic response of fuselage structures impacted by tire fragment under bursting mode. Besides, dynamic characteristics of the two fuselage structures impacted by tire fragment are simulated and critical damage velocities of each working condition are obtained. The results show that composite front bulkhead cannot bear the impact load of front tire fragment at the velocity of 100 m/s, but aluminum alloy front bulkhead can. Main cabin with two properties both can bear the impact loads of front and main tire fragments. When impacted by front tire fragment, critical damage velocity of front bulkhead is approximately half of that of main cabin, while critical damage velocity of aluminum alloy fuselage is larger than that of composite fuselage. However, when impacted by main tire fragment, critical damage velocity of aluminum alloy main cabin is less than that of composite main cabin. Furthermore, maximum contact pressure of composite fuselage is 3–3.3 times than that of aluminum alloy fuselage. The difference in concave deformation is not significant when impacted by front tire fragment, but the difference is great when impacted by main tire fragment.

Based on the nonlinear finite element theory, the disturbance conditions of deep water reservoir sediment in the process of sampling with sampler are researched by using the finite element software ADINA. Nonlinear face-face contact model between sampler and sediment is established by adopting the Mohr-Coulomb constitutive model as sediments material properties, and the friction and contact in the interface of sampler wall and sediment are well simulated. The impact load is applied, and the impact sampling finite element simulation model is obtained by nonlinear transient dynamic analysis. The condition of deformation, stress and strain in sampling sampler is well discussed, the results show that the axial compression of sediment samples is largest on the bit lip surface and is smallest in the center part of the sediment samples, the impact disturbance on the soil samples is within a small scope nearby the bits.

Abstract Explosion is the act of generating huge energy in an instant and spreading rapidly around it. Due to the suddenness, fast propagation speed and high peak load of explosions, compared with other natural disasters, the damage it brings to humans is more significant and difficult to prevent. Among them, the explosion of acetylene-air mixture is the most typical explosion problem. This paper uses SAP2000 finite element software to perform a fine simulation of actual explosion events, studies the effect of the explosion of acetylene-air mixture on the frame structure column, and discusses the displacement and acceleration changes of various components. Research shows that the use of the principle of linear assumption of explosive load can effectively simulate the actual explosion situation. The structural damage and deformation caused by the explosive load have locality and weak transmission. When the peak of the explosion load is larger, the structure deformation is greater, and the impact of the explosion load on the structure is isotropic.

Several new types of materials have recently been used as retrofitting materials for structural elements such as ultra-high performance concrete with steel fiber reinforcement (UHPFRC). These materials are used as jacking to enhance the strength and ductility reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Considerable attention has been focused on the response of retrofitted RC beam under static loads but the behavior of such beam under impact loading is somewhat lacking. Therefore, in this study, a 3-D finite element model (FEM) of retrofitted RC beams under impact loading using non-linear finite element software (ABAQUS) was investigated. Since experimental work on this topic is scarce, the FEM is validated using the results of retrofitted RC beam under static loads. The impact load was applied in ABAQUS as equivalent to an initial velocity of 2500 mm/s. A parametric study was carried out to study the flexural response of RC beams retrofitted with different thicknesses and strengthening configurations of UHPFRC under impact loading.

This paper is focused on the development of a finite element model describing the behaviour of sandwich structure with composite skins and low density foam core in case of low-velocity transverse impact load. The material properties of foam core and composite skins were determined using tensile tests. The non-linear elastic behaviour of composite skins was implemented into the commercial finite elements software using material subroutine. The identification process combining finite element simulations and mathematical optimization method was used for the determination of material parameters of the composite skins. The foam core was modelled using Abaqus Low-density Foam material model considering the non-linear behaviour in case of tension.

Abstract Dynamic capacity is totally different from quasi-static capacity of ship structural components, although most ultimate strength analyses at present by researchers are performed under quasi-static conditions. To investigate the dynamic ultimate strength characteristics, the dynamic ultimate strength analyses of stiffened plates subjected to impact load were studied based on a 3-D nonlinear explicit finite element method (FEM) in this paper. The impact load in the present work is characterized as a half-sine function. A series of nonlinear finite element analyses are carried out using Budiansky-Roth (B-R) criterion. The influence of impact durations, model ranges, boundary conditions, initial imperfections and impact loads on the dynamic ultimate strength of stiffened plates are discussed. In addition, the ultimate strength of stiffened plates under the in-plane impact combined with lateral pressure was also calculated, which shows lateral pressure has a negligible effect on the dynamic ultimate strength of stiffened plates subjected to the impact load with short durations. Other important conclusions can be obtained from this paper, which are useful insights for the development of ultimate strength theory of ship structures and lay a good foundation for the study of dynamic ultimate strength in the future.

Ice shedding causes transmission lines to vibrate violently, which induces a sharp increase in the longitudinal unbalanced tension of the lines, even resulting in the progressive collapse of transmission towers in serious cases, which is a common ice-based disaster for transmission tower-line systems. Based on the actual engineering characteristics of a 500 kV transmission line taken as the research object, a finite element model of a two-tower, three-line system is established by commercial ANSYS finite element software. In the modeling process, the uniform mode method is used to introduce the initial defects, and the collapse caused by ice shedding and its influencing parameters are systematically studied. The results show that the higher the ice-shedding height is, the greater the threat of ice shedding to the system; furthermore, the greater the span is, the shorter the insulator length and the greater the dynamic response of the line; the impact of ice shedding should be considered in the design of transmission towers.

In recent years, as the portal frame’s height toward higher and the span toward wider, the influence of wind vibration becomes more and more prominent among the portal frame structure. In the design of the portal frame, there are many different opinions on whether considering the impact of the vertical wind vibration to the portal frame. This paper taking a true engineering as an example, using finite element software to establish the solid model of the portal frame structure, selecting the junction of purlin and roof as a node of imposing vertical fluctuating wind load, we made numerical simulation analysis of vertical wind vibration. The simulation results will be compared with data of the internal forces and deformation under the average wind pressure. The results showed that: vertical wind vibration has a prominent effect to the portal frame and should be considered in the design.
