Damage modelling of carbon fibre composite crush tubes: numerical simulation and experimental validation of drop weight impact
Angle-ply carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) crush tubes were tested in drop weight impact experiments. High-fidelity computational modelling of the dynamic impact response was performed using explicit finite element analysis in LS-DYNA. Ply-by-ply and fibre-aligned meshing was used for the comp...
