Abstract
This investigation presents a quasi-static simulation method that adopts energy conservation and the results from the static crush to simulate the impact behavior of carbon-epoxy composite laminate plates. These plates consist of adhered visco-elastic material, and formed constrained layered damped (CLD) components. The damping force is considered in the quasi-static simulation. Comparison with experimental results indicates that the proposed method yields accurate results and produces significant saving in computing resources. © 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
