Abstract: | A finite element analysis of fibre reinforced plastic tubes subjected to a dynamic internal pressure pulse is performed using the ABAQUS finite element program. The effects of strain rate on the ply properties, the nonlinearity of the stress-strain curves, failure and post-failure theories are incorporated in the analysis. The results of the analysis show good agreement with the experimental stress-strain and strain-time results for 45° and 65° Kevlar fibre reinforced epoxy (KRP) tubes. |
