Scaling impacted structures

Abstract: The problem of non-scalability of structures under impact loads caused by strainrate effects is solved in this article by properly correcting the impact velocity. The technique relies on the use of an alternative dimensionless basis, together with a mathematical model which allows the calculation of a correction factor for the impact velocity. This new velocity, when applied to the model, makes it to assure the satisfaction of the scaling laws. The indirect similitude method detailed here is applied to two str… Show more

“…In 2004, the problem of non-scalability of structures under impact loads caused by strain rate effects was solved by Oshiro and Alves [10][11] . The results showed the very good agreement so that the model and the prototype made of strain rate sensitive materials behaved the same.…”
