Numerical simulation of 9 meter drop of a transport and storage cask with aluminium impact limiter
(2010)
For the purpose of numerical simulation of 9 meter drop of a transport and storage cask with aluminium impact limiter, an elastic-incremental plastic material model with strain rate hardening acc. to Cowper-Symonds is used for the development of isothermal as well as adiabatic stress-strain relations of aluminium from the compression test at constant ambient temperature. After that, two different simulation strategies are compared. At first, the drop test is calculated fully coupled, i.e. with isothermal stress-strain relations and possible heat generation in the material. Then the drop test is recalculated in a very simplified manner with adiabatic stress-strain relations from the compression test in an isothermal simulation. Both calculation strategies show similar results in the investigated load scenario.
For validation of structural integrity under normal and hypothetical accident conditions during transport and storage of dangerous goods the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) focuses its safety related scientific research on advanced mechanical safety assessment methods including simulation of high rate impact of model components and structures.
An impact and crash test facility was recently developed for performing dynamic impact tests with component size specimen, or to crash specimens of impact limiter materials and structural components.
The paper presents experimental techniques of BAM drop test machine and options of several measurement methods and advancements in order to characterize typical shock-absorbing materials under impact loading conditions. Instrumented drop weight tests are performed to complete materials data base and energy absorption of shock-absorbing materials as well as to implement materials and structural parameters into FEA of reference structures.
The performance of shock absorbers has been tested in specific regulatory drop tests onto an unyielding target at the BAM drop test facility. Optical surface digitisation methods have been used to measure, analyse and evaluate permanent deformations of shock absorbers more systematically. The measurement principle of the used fringe projection technique and its technical application to shock absorber investigations is explained in detail. Furthermore, examples of shock absorber testing results as well as final data visualisation are given in the present paper.
