A series of calculations has been conducted to study the high-speed interaction of space debris (SD) particles with screens of finite thickness. For the first time, taking into account the fracture effects, a numerical solution has been obtained for the problem of high-velocity interaction between SD particles and a volumetrically reinforced penetrating composite screen. The calculations were performed using the REACTOR 3D software package in a three-dimensional setup. To calibrate the material properties of homogeneous screens made of aluminum alloy A356, stainless steel 316L, and multilayer screens, methodical load calculations were carried out. The properties of materials have been verified based on experimental data through systematic calculations of the load on homogeneous screens made of aluminum alloy A356, stainless steel 316L, and multilayer screens comprising a combination of aluminum and steel plates. Several options for the numerical design of heterogeneous screens based on A356 and 316L were considered, including interpenetrating reinforcement with steel inclusions and a gradient distribution of steel throughout the thickness of an aluminum matrix. The study has revealed that the screens constructed as a two-layer composite of A356/316L, volumetrically reinforced composite screens, and heterogeneous screens with a direct gradient distribution of steel in the aluminum matrix provide protection for devices from both a single SD particle and streams of SD particles moving at speeds of up to 6 km/s. SD particles were modeled as spherical particles with a diameter of 1.9 mm made of the aluminum alloy Al2017-T4 with a mass of 10 mg.

“…18 The authors Ranaweera et al 19 also confirmed fact that three-layered metal plates are poorly understood, and developing this topic, and investigated a targets composed of steel, titanium and aluminum layers impacted by non-rigid NATO FMJ M80 projectiles. Some penetration and perforation problems, including perforation metal targets with elongated rods were numerically solved in Kraus et al 20 The good correlation in terms the self-similar modeling Zlatin’s curve in dimensionless coordinates L/H (crater depth to the striker length) and E/Y (kinetic energy to the yield point) was obtained.…”

The results of numerical simulation of perforation of monolithic and multi-layered targets are presented. The objects of study were monolithic, two-layer, three-layer and air gap targets made of steel 3. The influence of the placement of an additional layer on impact resistance in high-velocity impact (initial velocity was more than the ballistic limit of all targets) was investigated. The behavior of materials was described using a phenomenological macroscopic model of continuum mechanics. A modified Lagrangian method was used for numerical simulation of the perforation process. Test calculations were performed before numerical research. Good agreement on penetration depth of an ogival striker into a semi-infinite metal target was obtained. Numerical simulation found that impact resistance of the triple-layered target was higher than that of the double-layered target and monolithic targets. Post-perforation analysis showed the targets were completely perforated and the striker’s tip was slightly eroded or blunted. Duration of perforation of all targets and damage to their materials were approximately the same, but permanent deformation of additional layers was greater with a triple-layered target. This finding can be explained by a pinching effect of additional layers acting on the striker and decelerating it.
