Dynamic behavior of composite ship structures (DYCOSS): test and analysis efforts
conference paper
An extensive test and analysis effort has been conducted including sunken box and shock table tests. The experiments form an integral part of a methodology which aims at predicting the dynamic response of composite ship structures by numerical simulations using failure parameters derived from tests at realistic loading rates. Numerical simulations of dynamic panel tests, which employ the recently developed Failure Prediction Tool, are presented. Numerical results are compared with experimental data and observed damage patterns. The performance of the failure models in the Failure Prediction Tool is compared with results obtained using conventional stress based criteria.
