Impact analysis of the CFRP/PEEK/ceramic/gelatin composite for finding behind the armor trauma
Impact analysis of the CFRP/PEEK/Ceramic composite for finding behind the armor trauma In this tutorial, the impact analysis of a CFRP/PEEK/ceramic/gelatin composite panel for evaluating behind-armor trauma (BAT) has been carried out in Abaqus. The carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) is modeled as a three-dimensional shell part with elastic layers and Hashin’s damage criterion to […]
Composite Analysis and Simulation Package
Introduction to Composite Material Analysis and Simulation Composite materials are engineered by combining two or more constituent materials with different physical and chemical properties to achieve superior performance compared to their individual components. Typically, composites consist of a matrix material (such as a polymer, metal, or ceramic) reinforced with fibers or particles (such as carbon, […]
Numerical analysis of the CFRP blanket effect on reducing the deformation of pipelines in soil exposed to the Coupled Eulerian-Lagrangian subsurface explosion
Introduction Pipelines are critical infrastructures for the transportation of oil, gas, and other essential resources. Among these, API 5L X65 grade steel pipelines are commonly used due to their strength and cost-efficiency. However, pipelines buried in soil are vulnerable to extreme events such as subsurface explosions, which may result from accidental or intentional detonations. These […]
Analysis of high-low velocity impact response of GLAREs
Introduction In modern aerospace engineering and defense industries, impact resistance of materials is a critical factor in ensuring structural safety and durability. One class of materials that has gained significant attention for its superior impact performance is GLARE (Glass Laminate Aluminum Reinforced Epoxy). GLARE is a type of Fiber Metal Laminate (FML) that combines aluminum […]
Analysis of the blast protection wall system( wood cover-soil)
Terrorism has become a major challenge for the world. Terrorist organizations have raised their activities and their attacks in recent years using explosives. These attacks have left numerous numbers of victims, wreaked massive havoc on basic infrastructure, and increased global concern about the nature of these attacks. Blast wall protection systems can provide a required […]
Analysis of the laced reinforced concrete with wood cover under air blast load
Introduction The structural performance of buildings and protective systems under extreme loading conditions, such as air blast loads, has become an area of critical interest, particularly for infrastructure security, military applications, and high-risk industrial facilities. One innovative solution to enhance the blast resistance of concrete structures is the use of laced reinforced concrete (LRC) combined […]
Analysis of Shearing Capacity of the UHPC Beam Reinforced with Carbon Fiber Truss
Carbon Fiber Truss Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) is a next-generation concrete known for its exceptional compressive strength, low porosity, and high durability. Despite these advantages, UHPC beams can still experience shear failure, particularly because UHPC, like traditional concrete, has relatively low tensile strength and can be brittle in shear-dominant regions. To address this, the study […]

Analysis of a composite panel(CFRP-Ceramic-GFPP) under air blast load
Introduction: In modern engineering, multi-layer composite panels are widely used in defense, aerospace, and infrastructure due to their high strength-to-weight ratio, damage tolerance, and energy absorption capabilities. With increasing threats from blast and impact loading, it’s crucial to assess the performance of these panels under extreme dynamic conditions, such as an air blast explosion. This […]
Analysis and simulation of high-velocity impact on a Composite panel(CFRP-Aluminum foam-Aluminum honeycomb-CFRP)
This study presents a comprehensive finite element simulation of a high-velocity impact on a hybrid composite sandwich panel consisting of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) face sheets, an aluminum foam core, and an aluminum honeycomb mid-layer. The structural configuration aims to maximize energy absorption and minimize damage propagation under extreme dynamic loads. A spherical projectile […]
