Effect of low velocity impact on deformation behavior of metallic pressure vessel
The present study deals with the numerical investigations of aluminium pressure vessel behavior when impacted by spherical and blunt steel projectiles. One of the main causes of vessel rupture is the reduction of the vessel strength caused by external impact or material defect. The safety of the pre...
