Abstract

The paper shows the directions to improve the assessment of the external load on a rigid structure during the crash of an aircraft. Our estimates describe the modeling of initial stage of impact (deformation of the nose compartment). The main goal is to evaluate the correctness and applicability of the Riera approach to mechanical equivalent of onboard equipment. Volume-perforated samples of the aluminum alloy D16T were used as mechanical equivalents in numerical and experimental studies. Both our model which uses constitutive equations of high-porous elastoplastic medium (Carroll-Holt model) and direct 3D modeling of the structure of volume-perforated samples by finite element method in the LS-DYNA allows us to obtain the history of load on a rigid wall. We demonstrate the features and differences between this approaches and the Riera approach.
