金属蜂窝夹层结构抗水下爆炸特性

金属蜂窝夹层结构是一种新型的舰船防护结构,在舰船防护领域具有广阔的应用前景,但目前缺乏对其在实际水下爆炸载荷作用下动态响应的研究。为研究金属蜂窝夹层结构在水下爆炸载荷作用下的动态响应及防护性能,设计并制备了背板加筋蜂窝夹层结构样件以及相应的浮箱,在大型露天水池中进行了水下实爆 实验;通过声固耦合算法对结构响应进行模拟,实验结果与模拟结果吻合良好,随后分析了蜂窝夹层板的变形过程及能量吸收特性,量化了载荷参数（冲击因子）及结构参数（前后面板厚度比和芯体相对密度）对结构动态响应的影响;最后,以蜂窝夹层板的面密度和后面板中心点最大变形的无量纲量为目标函数,使用NSGA-Ⅱ遗传算法对结构进行了多目标优化,得到对应的Pareto前沿。结果表明,随着冲击因子的增大,蜂窝夹层板整体变形显著增大,蜂窝芯体始终是主要的吸能构件,但其吸能占比逐渐降低;随着前后面板厚度比或芯体相对密度的增加,蜂窝夹层结构的最大变形呈现先降低后升高的趋势,同时呈现不同的变形模式,芯体相对密度对结构变形的影响更为显著;对蜂窝夹层结构开展多目标优化可有效降低结构的面密度及最大变形,优化结果可为蜂窝夹层结构的设计选型提供参考。

The response of clamped sandwich plates with lattice cores subjected to shock loading

The dynamic response of clamped circular monolithic and sandwich plates of equal areal mass and thickness has been measured by loading the plates at mid-span with metal foam projectiles. The sandwich plates comprise AISI 304 stainless steel face sheets and either AL-6XN stainless steel pyramidal core or AISI 304 stainless steel square-honeycomb lattice core. The resistance to shock loading is quantified by the permanent transverse deflection at mid-span of the plates as a function of projectile momentum. It is found that the sandwich plates have a higher shock resistance than monolithic plates of equal mass, and the square-honeycomb sandwich plates outperform the pyramidal core plates. Three-dimensional finite element simulations of the experiments are in good agreement with the experimental measurements. The finite element calculations indicate that the ratio of loading time to structural response time is approximately 0.5. Consequently, the tests do not lie in the impulsive regime, and projectile momentum alone is insufficient to quantify the level of loading.     

The response of clamped sandwich plates with metallic foam cores to simulated blast loading

The dynamic responses of clamped circular monolithic and sandwich plates of equal areal mass have been measured by loading the plates at mid-span with metal foam projectiles. The sandwich plates comprise AISI 304 stainless steel face sheets and aluminium alloy metal foam cores. The resistance to shock loading is quantified by the permanent transverse deflection at mid-span of the plates as a function of projectile momentum. It is found that the sandwich plates have a higher shock resistance than monolithic plates of equal mass. Further, the shock resistance of the sandwich plates increases with increasing thickness of sandwich core. Finite element simulations of these experiments are in good agreement with the experimental measurements and demonstrate that the strain rate sensitivity of AISI 304 stainless steel plays a significant role in increasing the shock resistance of the monolithic and sandwich plates. Finally, the finite element simulations were employed to determine the pressure versus time history exerted by the foam projectiles on the plates. It was found that the pressure transient was reasonably independent of the dynamic impedance of the plate, suggesting that the metal foam projectile is a convenient experimental tool for ranking the shock resistance of competing structures.     

The dynamic response of composite sandwich beams to transverse impact

The dynamic response of glass fibre–vinylester composite beams is measured by impacting the beams at mid-span with metal foam projectiles. The beams exist in composite monolithic form, and in sandwich configuration with composite face-sheets and a core made from PVC foam or end-grain balsa wood. High-speed photography is used to measure the transient transverse deflection of the beams and to record the dynamic modes of deformation and failure. For both monolithic and sandwich configurations, a flexural wave travels from the impact site towards the supports. Ultimate failure of the monolithic and sandwich beams is by tensile tearing of the faces. The sandwich beams also exhibit cracking of the core, and face-sheet delamination. The dynamic strength of the beams is quantified by the maximum transient transverse deflection at mid-span of the beams as a function of projectile momentum. It is demonstrated that sandwich beams can outperform monolithic beams of equal mass. The trade-off between core strength and core thickness is such that a low density PVC foam core outperforms a higher density PVC foam core. End-grain balsa wood has a superior stiffness and strength to that of PVC foam in compression and in shear. Consequently, sandwich beams with a balsa core outperform beams with a PVC foam core for projectiles of low momentum. The order reverses at high values of projectile momentum: the sandwich beams with a balsa wood core fail prematurely in longitudinal shear by splitting along the grain.     

The dynamic response of clamped rectangular Y-frame and corrugated core sandwich plates

The dynamic response of fully clamped, monolithic and sandwich plates of equal areal mass has been measured by loading rectangular plates over a central patch with metal foam projectiles. All plates are made from AISI 304 stainless steel, and the sandwich topologies comprise two identical face-sheets and either Y-frame or corrugated cores. The resistance to shock loading is quantified by the permanent transverse deflection at mid-span of the plates as a function of projectile momentum. At low levels of projectile momentum both types of sandwich plate deflect less than monolithic plates of equal areal mass. However, at higher levels of projectile momentum, the sandwich plates tear while the monolithic plates remain intact. Three-dimensional finite element (FE) calculations adequately predict the measured responses, prior to the onset of tearing. These calculations also reveal that the accumulated plastic strains in the front face of the sandwich plates exceed those in the monolithic plates. These high plastic strains lead to failure of the front face sheets of the sandwich plates at lower values of projectile momentum than for the equivalent monolithic plates.     

A lattice deformation based model of metallic lattice sandwich plates subjected to impulsive loading

A lattice structure deformation mechanism based theoretical model is developed to predict the dynamic response of square lattice sandwich plates under impulsive loading. The analytical model is established on the basis of the three-stage framework proposed by Fleck and Deshpande (2004). In the first stage, the impulse transmitted from air shock loading to the sandwich plates by fluid-structure interaction is analytically calculated. The lattice core suffers non-uniform compression in the second stage due to the clamped boundary conditions. The structure deformation mechanism is introduced in the lattice core compression and the analytical nominal stress–strain curve of core compression accords well with previous experimental results. In the final stage, the sandwich plate is analyzed as a continuum plate with non-uniform thickness deduced by inconsistent deformation of the front and back sheets.The experiment results of square metallic sandwich plates with tetrahedral lattice core are presented and compared with analytical prediction to validate the theoretical model. Good agreements are found between the predicted and testing results for both the impulse transmitted to the sandwich plates and the maximum deflection of the back face sheet.
