Abstract

The impact of transient response laminated shallow shells due to transverse foreign object was investigated analytically and experimentally. The analytical analysis is presented by using the new higher order shear deformation shell theory. The contact force ishassumedhtohbe a known inputhtohthehanalysis. Contact force and transverse deflection of laminated shell have been measured with a piezoelectric force transducer (load cell) and a piezoelectric bending transducer respectively. Laminates made from E-glass polyester and E-glass/carbon/polyester having different thickness and stacking sequences have been used. The analysis can be used to calculate the difference between the transient stresses, displacements, velocities, accelerations and energy observation at the center of laminated shell are plotted as function of time during impact between E-glass/polyester and E-glass/carbon/polyester by MATLAB code at different impact heights to determine whether they have a good resistant ability to impact. Finally, it was compared with the results of an experimental test to verify the accuracy and reliability of the theoretical analysis.
