Abstract
In this work simulations of high velocity impacts of ice spheres on carbon/epoxy laminates are accomplished. The Drucker-Prager model has been chosen to describe the mechanical behavior of the ice under high velocity impact conditions. Results have been validated by means of experimental tests performed in a wide range of impact velocities. The delaminated area was chosen as comparison variable, and reflects that the model predicts adequately the impact process.
