Abstract

The distribution and dissipation energies in fracture mechanisms were a critical challenge to derive, especially for this ultra-thin sample. The membrane failure, which is the end of the fracture mechanisms, is a result of the cone wave reflections from the backend membrane boundaries. These reflections delay the failure processes due to the shock impacts. To compare these results with the experimental work, a numerical simulation was conducted for these processes. The cylinder-shaped rigid projectile was impacted using a frictionless Lagrange solver. The target was a cartridge brass circle plate clamped at its perimeter, and its zone was refined to a ten-times higher meshing density for better analysis. The erosion and cut-off controls involved a zero-gap interaction condition and an instantaneous geometric erosion strain of 200%. Due to the maximum projectile velocity of 382 m/s having the slowest perforation, the target thickness was found to be 5.5 mm. The fracture mechanism phenomena, such as tensile, compressive, through-thickness, and growth in-plane delamination, propagating delamination, and local punch shear waves were observed. After deducting tensile and flexural strengths from the last experiment, a total residual membrane stress of 650 MPa was found. This result indicated a relationship between the fracture mechanisms and residual membrane stresses of metallic material.

Highlights

  • The osteoarthritis patients suffered from decreased cell viability [1] during cartilage tissue cell regeneration therapy [2]

  • The cart brass target plate result was at a 5.5 mm thickness, wherein the phenomenon was obtained by the maximum projectile velocity of 382 m/s perforated at the slowest rate

  • The fracture mechanisms which consisted of waves of tensile, compressive, throughthickness, growth in-plane delamination, propagation delamination, and local punch shear were observed

Summary

Introduction

The osteoarthritis patients suffered from decreased cell viability [1] during cartilage tissue cell regeneration therapy [2]. This is due to the fact that most of the articular cartilage scaffolds used for this therapy [3] did not protect external forces or shock impacts from attacking osteoarthritis patients [4] during their daily activities [5]. Body armor and biomaterials should be failed first, prior to preventing any blunt-force trauma effect [9,10] or neo-cartilage tissue cell-rupture effect, respectively [11]. The ballistic impact test for body armor is a suitable measurement for biomaterial performance [12]
