Computational analysis of impact of a bullet against the multilayer fabrics in LS-DYNA
Rimantas Barauskas, Aušra Abraitienė.

A finite element model of the ballistic test against the multi-layer paraaramid textiles package structure has been developed in LS-DYNA. The bullet has been considered as a deformable body in contact with the fabric package represented by an interwoven yarn structure. The simplification of the model has been achieved by means of the ?mezzo-mechanical? approach by avoiding the direct modeling of filaments comprising the yarns. Instead, yarns have been modeled by using thin shell elements the thickness of which represents the real thickness of yarns as it can be measured in the weave. The zones of the fabric remote from the point of impact have been presented as a roughly meshed uniform orthotropic thin shell model. The junction between the two types of zones of the fabric has been performed by means of the tie constraint and by proper adjustment of material parameters ensuring the same speeds of wave propagation in the interwoven yarn structure and in the uniform shell. Physical and numerical experiments have been performed in order to identify the material model parameters and to validate the model.
