Abstract:
A numerical modeling of impact processes in a textile armor and in a human
body is considered. A human chest model is proposed using the SolidWorks
software package. Numerical experiments were conducted to study the scalability
of problems devoted to the dynamic interaction of an indenter with fabric
barriers of different size and different number of layers as well as to the
dynamic interaction of the indenter with a human chest by the finite element
analysis in the framework of the LS-DYNA software package.
Keywords:textile armor; impact; FEA model; human chest; supercomputer simulation.
