    High Velocity Impact

    I found good parameters for the material. My last problem are the constraints. I uploaded a picture of the simulation. The bullet is divided in three parts. The core, the jacket and an lead filler (grey). I got no damage data for the lead. But the main Problem is, that the lead and the jacket...

    High Velocity Impact

    Thank you all for your answers! The main problem was the contact definition. It was only defined for the surface elements and not the internal elements. I solved that problem for a rigid projectile. Now I am trying to validate the material properties. I got them from an article and I think...

    High Velocity Impact

    i defined damage criterion for the material. The initial velocity is defined as field input. I put the input file in the attachement. https://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=6932bbf9-8d5f-4b79-b239-6e0d2c193c20&file=Impact.inp

    High Velocity Impact

    I am trying to simulate an Impact with 860 m/s with an armour piercing bullet and a steel plate. After the impact, it seems like there is no contact between the bullet and the plate. I defined the Contact as General Contact with All* with self as contact domain. Furthermore the friction is 0.05...
