Abstract

To date, oblique impact has not been studied and few experimental data on the local damage of reinforced concrete (RC) panels exist for oblique impact of deformable projectiles. The final purpose of this study is to propose a new formula for evaluating the local damage to reinforced concrete structures caused by oblique impact based on past experimental results and simulation results. As the first step of this final purpose, we validate the analytical method by comparison with the experimental results and simulate the damage caused by oblique impact using the validated method. First, we analyze and simulate the local damage of RC panel caused by a deformable projectile owing to an impact test normal to the target structure to verify the validity of the simulation analysis. Next, we perform simulation analyses for evaluating the perforation of RC panel due to oblique impact by the deformable projectile and present the results. Various response characteristics and perforation mechanisms to be the basis of examination of oblique impact evaluation were clarified in this paper.
