Additional information

The dependency of the behaviour of aluminium alloy, of interest to aerospace applications under dynamic loading, was experimentally investigated and a material model developed, validated and implemented into the commercial non-linear finite element program DYNA3D. The development allows for more accurate analyses of bird strike and aircraft crashworthiness. The work was initially sponsored by AIRBUS (£100,000) (Dr Richard.Rigbey@airbus.com) and the European Commission (£210,000) project MUSCA, contract No. 516155. The model has also been successfully applied to automotive crashworthiness with Jaguar Land Rover. (Dr. Tayeb Zeguer - tzeguer@jaguarlandrover.com)
