| Summary: | The effect of low velocity impact response on the thin laminated composite cylindrical shell with different stacking sequences was investigated. Finite element simulation using ABAQUS software was the base of the study during the analysis. The framework was to study the stress and displacement in radial and circumferential directions through finite element simulation. For simplicity, an arbitrarily picked circumferential path at where the impactor impacts the shell surface was selected. The graphs plotted based on stress and displacement variables Vs radial and circumferential directions did not show the significant changes for laminations with different stacking sequences. In addition, The 90 degree along circumferential and radial directions was found to be the critical point. |
