Constitutive models investigation to simulate damage/failure of Aluminum (Al) 6061-T6 / Patrick Leclerc; Genevière Toussaint.: D68-2/198-2018E-PDF

"The design of a military vehicle is a complex science that requires the careful consideration of factors, such as armour protection that is essential for survivability, while considering the need to conceive a lightweight and economical vehicle. Therefore, predicting the material behavior and damage until failure is of primary importance when evaluating the vulnerability of military platforms and could influence the optimization of protection systems. In this report, the aim is to investigate the effect of modifying several constitutive and damage models that could be used to simulate the damage behavior of Aluminium (Al) 6061-T6 using the LS-DYNA hydrocode"--Abstract.
