Abstract

Abstract

In order to gain insight into the mechanism of catastrophic damage due to the hydrodynamic ram effect caused by projectiles with high-velocity striking fluid-filled containers such as aircraft fuel tanks, an ballistic shock experiment was carried out by using projectiles to penetrate riveted fuel tanks. The dynamic responses of the rear wall were observed with a three-dimensional digital image correlation technique, and the experimental data were obtained, such as the deformations of the tanks and the diameters of the hole under projectile impact. Also, the fluid-solid coupling finite element model was established based on the experiment to simulate the impact process and the hydrodynamic ram effect under the projectile velocity from 780 to 1600 m/s by analyzing the variation of projectile velocities influencing the kinetic energy reductions, projectile accelerations, the distribution of liquid pressure in the box and the deformation and tearing of the tank wall and rivets. The results show that the finite element simulation results are consistent with the experimental ones. The kinetic energy loss of the projectile, the deformation of the tank, and the peak pressure of the fuel are proportional to the projectile velocity. When the projectile velocity reached 1400 m/s, cracks began to appear on the rear wall of the fuel tank, showing a petal-type hole damage. When the projectile velocity reached 1600 m/s, the rivet began to break.
