“…The range of the fringe is 0% (blue) to 36% (red) effective plastic strain. As shown in the figures, no part of the steel plate has exceeded 36% effective plastic strain -which is the strain at rupture for this alloy (Ramajeyathilagam, 2004). The experimental data showed no evidence of rupture in the plates, and this computation is consistent with that data.…”

“…However in some cases large bending angle petals are created which can enhance the floodwater and this could be dangerous to stability and structural strength. It is therefore vital that work such as Ramajeyathilagam and Vendhan (2004), Ozguc et al (2006), Webster (2007) and Niklas (2008) continues to model the manner in which damage occurs during different scenarios to give an effective estimation of the coefficient of discharge value and flow rate.…”

Ships or risers, among many other marine structures, incur damage even with the best precautions. Whilst these damages can be catastrophic they often lead to scenarios whereby the damaged structure is ailing but not failed. In these scenarios the structure will flood and it is vital that the rate of flooding can be estimated, from a limited knowledge of the damage, so that safety and the environment can be best considered and an economical and effective recovery or repair of the vessel occurs.In an effort to improve the modelling and hence improve the advice available, research has been performed into how petalling, folding of the structure at the edge of the damage, effects the flooding of the structure. Experiments have been conducted on petalled structures and the results are compared to the coefficient of discharge for flat edged damages. The results show that petalling makes a substantial difference to the coefficient of discharge of the orifice flow which is largely dependent on the petalling angle which can both reduce or increase the flow rate dependent on the orientation. However, this difference can be predicted if the type of petalling is known.

“…Several studies focused on dynamic deformation and failure modes of real-size naval structures consequent to blast loading in explosive test facilities [15][16][17]. In order to minimise the time and cost required for large-scale tests, experimental methods at laboratory scale have been developed.…”

Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) experiments and finite element (FE) calculations are performed in order to examine the one-dimensional response of water-backed and air-backed sandwich plates subject to blast loading in either deep or shallow water. The sandwich plates comprise rigid face sheets and low-density foam cores. Experiments are conducted in a transparent shock tube, allowing measurements of both structural response and cavitation processes in the fluid. Measurements are found in good agreement with predictions and allow concluding that the advantages of using the sandwich construction over the monolithic are maximised for the case of water-backed sandwich plates in deep water.
