Numerical Simulation and Optimization of an Off- Road Vehicle Floorboard for Mine Blast Damage Reduction
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
This paper studies numerically the response of V-shaped hull subjected to mine blast load using finite element analysis package ABAQUS. The V-shaped plates are made from Domex700 steel folded along the centre to provide different angles and a constant area of 300× 300 mm for each plate. Different masses of explosive are used to provide results ranging from large inelastic deformation of the plate to tearing. A general trend of increasing permanent mid-point deflection is observed for an increase in charge mass at a constant stand-off distance. The results showed that smaller angles deflect more blast energy resulting in lower mid-point plate deflection.
