Abstract

Naval vessels and Submarines structures in their fighting role are susceptible to explosion of torpedoes, mines, TNT etc. The damage inflicted by Contact explosion consists of direct shock wave damage to hull, whipping damage to keel and mechanical damage to onboard equipment and associated systems. The order to design a shock resistant structure, it is important to simulate these structures and loads and then subsequently analyze the same to predict the response (as performing experiments would be expensive). The TNT (Trinitrotoluene) explosion analysis of large structures like ships could be considered as one of the most complicated numerical analysis. Loads can be calculated by using published empirical formulas, which are complicated if calculated the large structure. By using of the FE Software ANSYS, backed up with in the developed software, for Explosion analysis of structures.
