Abstract

An elaborate numerical study with a validated LS-DYNA® immersed boundary method fluid-solid interaction code is used to characterize the influence of pre-detonation pressure and time duration on plastic deformation of thin steel triangular plates subjected to gaseous detonation. Other objectives of this numerical simulation such as estimation of deflection and stress contour of material at high strain rate are derived based on a strain-rate dependent Johnson-Cook material model. Simulation relies on the modeling of detonation by chemical reaction kinetic and its propagation by Conservative Element Solution Element (CESE) solver. Immersed boundary method is used to simulate the interface motion between the detonating gas and the deforming plate to facilitate the assessment of fluid pressure distribution on the plate surface. The numerical tool relates the pressure distribution and gaseous detonation parameters to the plate macroscopic deformation by employing multi-species reactive Euler’s equations for the gas and Lagrangian equation for plate. Numerical method as an appropriate tool in the evaluation of the deflection profile of the triangular plate shows that deflection decreases by the smaller size of the exposed area of the plate.

Highlights

  • Using Euleran method for fluid and Lagrangion formulation for solid
  • Coupled interaction between detonation waves and plate surface
  • Enhanced deformation with higher pre-detonation pressuer anda closed ignition location
