FEM-SPH Numerical Simulation of Impact Loading on Floating Laminates

Ana Pavlovic and Giangiacomo Minak    

Resumen

The study of dynamic events such as impact and hydroelastic slamming is of great importance in determining the structural integrity of naval or maritime structures, particularly those made of composite materials. This topic has been investigated by numerous researchers using analytical, experimental, and numerical approaches. In this study, we propose using a hybrid numerical model combining smoothed-particle hydrodynamics (SPH) and the finite element method (FEM) to investigate the impact of external objects on floating laminates. The results show a good agreement with the available experimental data regarding the impact dynamic and some limitations in the damage determination.
