Multi-material Arbitrary-Lagrangian-Eulerian formulation for blast-induced fluid-structure interaction in fibre metal laminates

Modelling the dynamic interaction of blast loading with primary aircraft structures is of great interest to both the military and civil sector as the threat of sabotage and terrorism increases. This paper examines and models the dynamic behavior of a fiber-metal laminate known as glass-fiber reinforced laminate (Glare) to dynamic loading based on experimental data using the arbitrary-LagrangianEulerian multimaterial formulation in the...
