Abstract

High velocity impact analysis is important study for various industries like defense making equipments, space industries, safety helmet industries. These types of problems are very difficult to analysis but computer simulation provides vast power to researchers to conduct these type of researches. The failure of an AL6061-T6 (Metal Alloy), E- Glass and Kevlar-29 composite plate under high-velocity impact from an structural Steel projectile tool was investigated using the nonlinear explicit finite element software, Ansys Autodyn. Two velocities of 350 m/s and 700 m/s were used for FEM simulation. Since AL6061-T6 is more resistant than composite material at various velocity ranges but composite material are light in weight than AL6061-T6 and have more application in various industries. Dimension and mass of tool play important role in failure conditions. Optimization of plate thickness was also done in this study using Ansys optimization tool.
