Abstract

The wave propagation in a circular plate after impact by a cylindrical projectile is studied. In the vicinity of impact, the pressure is computed numerically. An intense pressure pulse is generated that peaks 0.2 μs after impact, then drops sharply to a plateau. The response of the plate is determined adopting a modal solution of Mindlin’s equations. Velocity and acceleration histories display both propagating and dispersive features.
