| description | Nowadays, the numerical models for the impact load assessment are starting to become more accurate
and reliable. Combined with modern computer hardware, the computational time for such an assessment has been
reduced to a satisfactory level. In this study, an attempt has been made to present the simulation technique and
examine the accuracy of modern software with regards to assessing the response of reinforced concrete slabs
subjected to impact loading near the ultimate load ranges. The response such as time-impact force graph, damage
wave propagation, effectiveness of mesh density, effect of projectile size and final crack pattern are verified against
existing experimental results. It is shown that the present general purpose Finite Element Analysis (FEA) is able to
simulate and predict the impact behavior of structural systems satisfactorily. |
