Abstract
In this investigation, the methodology for predicting the dynamic response of a composite laminate shell subjected to low velocity impact is presented. A non-linear integro-differential equation is derived and solved by the numerical scheme of Runge-Kutta method to obtain the time history of the contact force at the impact point of the shell. The contact force is then taken as external force acting on the apex of the shell and solved by the finite element method. The results are validated with the numerical calculation published in the literature.
