| Abstract: | The ballistic perforation test results of 4-step 3-dimensional (3D) braided Twaron®/epoxy composites, which were subjected to impact by conically cylindrical steel projectile, are presented. The residual velocities of projectile perforated composites target at various strike velocities were measured and also compared with that from finite element calculation. ‘Fiber inclination model’ for 3D textile composites was adopted to decompose the 3D braided composite at quasi-microstructure level for the geometrical modeling in preprocessor of FEM. The material modeling was also based on this simplified model. The finite element code of Ls-Dyna was used to simulate the impact interaction between projectile and inclined lamina. The residual velocity of projectile perforating the entire 3D braided composite can be calculated from the sum of kinetic energy loss of the projectile that obtained from FEM. From the simulation of ballistic penetration process and comparison between numerical results and experimental results, it proves that the analysis scheme of quasi-microstructure level in this paper is valid and reasonable. The simplified method in this paper could be extended to model other kinds of 3D textile composites under ballistic impact. |
