The aim of this work is to perceive if the outcome from a ballistic impact can be predicted beforehand with the help of material testing and finite element simulations. Use of refined numerical simulation are gaining more importance especially in extreme load cases. A numerical investigation of the ballistic performance of monolithic, double layered metallic plates made of either steel or aluminium or combinations ,were impacted by a 7.62-mm APM2 projectile at a velocity of 820m/s. The numerical models were developed using the explicit finite element code LSDYNA®.The effect of different metallic parts- thickness on the residual velocity of APM2 projectiles is examined. Three configurations of plate arrangements with different total thicknesses were used. Both aluminium target and projectile have been modelled as deformable bodies with Modified Johnson-Cook material model based on input parameters from literature[1].The predicted values of residual velocities were compared with the literature and a good correlation was found between the two.

Numerical simulation of solidification kinetics in A356/SiCp composites for assessment of as-cast particle distribution CETIN, Arda; Kalkanlı, Ali (Elsevier BV, 2009-06-01) The present work is aimed at studying the effect of solidification rate on reinforcement clustering in particle reinforced metal matrix composites (PMMCs) through numerical simulations and experimental studies. A macrotransport-solidification kinetics (MTSK) model was used to simulate the solidification kinetics of the PMMCs. The experimental validation of the numerical model was achieved through the Newtonian and Fourier thermal analysis methods. Results reveal that the MTSK model can be successfully used ...
Predicting the shear strength of reinforced concrete beams using artificial neural networks Mansour, MY; Dicleli, Murat; Lee, JY; Zhang, J (Elsevier BV, 2004-05-01) The application of artificial neural networks (ANNs) to predict the ultimate shear strengths of reinforced concrete (RC) beams with transverse reinforcements is investigated in this paper. An ANN model is built, trained and tested using the available test data of 176 RC beams collected from the technical literature. The data used in the ANN model are arranged in a format of nine input parameters that cover the cylinder concrete compressive strength, yield strength of the longitudinal and transverse reinforc...
Numerical investigation of characteristics of pitch and roll damping coefficients for missile models Kayabaşı, İskander; Kurtuluş, Dilek Funda; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2012) In this thesis the characteristics of pitch and roll damping coefficients of missile models are investigated by using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques. Experimental data of NACA0012 airfoil, Basic Finner (BF) and Modified Basic Finner (MBF) models are used for validation and verification studies. Numerical computations are performed from subsonic to supersonic flow regimes. Grid refinement and turbulence model selection studies are conducted before starting the dynamic motion simulations. Numer...
Numerical solution of one dimensional detonation tube with reactive euler equations using high resolution method Ungun, Yiğit; Akmandor, İbrahim Sinan; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2012) In this thesis, numerical simulation of one dimensional detonation tube problem is solved with finite rate chemistry. For the numerical simulation, Euler equations have been used. Since detonation tube phenomena occurs in high speed flows, viscosity e ects and gravity forces are negligible. In this thesis, Godunov type methods have been studied and afterwards high resolution method is used for the numerical solution of the detonation tube problem. To solve the chemistry aspect of the problem ZND theory have...
Assessment of Point-Source Stochastic Simulations Using Recently Derived Ground-Motion Prediction Equations Akkar, Dede Sinan; Yenier, Emrah (Seismological Society of America (SSA), 2009-12-01) The simplicity of the point-source stochastic simulation method makes it one of the most appealing tools for the quantification of ground motions for seismic hazard related studies. In this article, we scrutinize the limitations of this technique in terms of fundamental geophysical model parameters. To achieve this objective, we use the estimations of recent Next Generation Attenuation (NGA) and European empirical ground-motion models that are based on global strong-motion databases. The generated synthetic...
