Impact damage of composite laminates with high-speed waterjet

Rain erosion may cause substantial damage to aircrafts during supersonic flight. Such event is investigated here via high-speed waterjet impact on composite laminates. An experimental setup is developed to produce waterjets with the speed up to 700m/s and a finite element model of the waterjet-composite impact event is established. The...

Experimental and numerical investigation of damage development in embedded rail system under longitudinal force

Embedded rail system (ERS) is a new type of track structure with many advantages due to its continuous rail support. The rapid development of urban rail transit all over the world renders its application prospect broad. However, the cracks and debonds in ERS present a threat to the traffic safety and a possibility for high maintenance costs....
