Numerical Simulation of Microscale Oblique Droplet Impact on Liquid Film
The oblique impact of microscale water droplets on liquid film is numerically investigated. Two-phase flow problems are simulated using three-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, and the level-set method is employed for capturing the gas ...

Azimuthal impact directions from oblique impact crater morphology [PDF]
Planetary impact craters have a high degree of radial symmetry. This hampers efforts to identify the azimuthal impact direction for most craters - the radially symmetric component of an impact crater swamps any asymmetries that may be present. We demonstrate how the asymmetric component can be isolated and the direction of the asymmetries quantified ...

Projectile preservation during oblique hypervelocity impacts [PDF]
AbstractImpact angle plays a significant role in determining the fate of the projectile. In this study, we use a suite of hypervelocity impact experiments to reveal how impact angle affects the preservation, distribution, and physical state of projectile residues in impact craters.

Spacesuits and spacecraft must endure high velocity impacts from micrometeoroids. This work considers the impact of 100 μm diameter projectiles into composite targets at velocities from 0.5 km/s to 2 km/s.

Penetration of sandwich plates with hybrid-cores under oblique ballistic impact
The oblique penetration performance of lightweight hybrid-cored sandwich plates are investigated numerically. To compose the hybrid-core, ceramic prisms are inserted into pyramidal metal lattice trusses and fixed using epoxy resin.

Impact simulations on local damage of reinforced concrete panel influenced by projectile nose shape
Most impact research has been presented on the basis of impact tests and numerical analysis performed by rigid projectile impact perpendicular to the target structure. On the other hand, there are only few reports on impacts at an oblique angle.

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.

Oblique Impact on Crashworthiness: Review
This paper reviewed the crashworthiness of foam-filled thin-walled structure subjected to oblique loading conditions. Crashworthiness is the most important part in designing a safety vehicle, so, the types of collisions, crashworthiness parameter and the modes of collapse of structural components are included in this part. Secondly, the energy absorber

Finite element analysis was used to investigate the impact behavior of the foam-cored sandwich shells under the ballistic impact. The ballistic limit, failure mode of the face-sheet and energy absorption of the uniform/graded core were discussed in this ...
