Abstract Paper presents numerical models based on detailed characterization of various uncoupled damage models in a finite element analysis (FEA) setup to assess large deformations and observed ductile fracture failure modes of fully clamped circular plates as well as transversely stiffened circular plates in cross stiffened configurations under uniform impulsive loads. The numerical schemes have been based on a detailed definition of the constitutive properties based on inverse FEA simulations of the uniaxial tension test for the calibration of material and failure parameters. Experiments have been conducted using two types of freshly prepared mild steel uniaxial tension test specimens covering the envisaged range of stress tri-axialities to establish the steel plate material and fracture characteristics necessary for the calibration of the presented phenomenological damage models. Published results based on extensive experimental works by various authors on response of thin walled clamped circular plates under transversely applied uniform air blast loads, manifesting in large plastic deformations, thinning and tearing under various ductile fracture modes, have been used in the performance assessment of presented numerical models and procedure, which incorporate different damage models including temperature effects due to plastic dissipation. Based on evaluated performance of the discussed failure models within the FEA setup, a hybrid damage model with a tri-axiality based two part ductile fracture locus has been proposed, which shows very good correlation with the published experimental results, presented in terms of non-dimensional parameters over a wide range of impulsive loading. The validated numerical setup using the proposed hybrid damage model has also been used to predict the effect of transverse cross stiffened configurations of flat bar stiffeners on large deformations and ductile fracture of clamped circular plates under transverse uniform impulsive blast loads, along with some key insights in the evolution of plastic zones and damage progression.
Highlights Response & failure of thin walled clamped circular steel plates to uniform air blast. Material characterization & damage models using UTT with varying triaxilaities. Response with different phenomenological failure models for damage mechanics. Proposed hybrid damage model in FEA setup & validation with experimental results. Effect of cross stiffened transverse stiffeners on response with validated FE model.
