| Sumario: | Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) are kinds of composite materials which exhibit continuous variation of material properties from one surface to another. With regard to the continuity of mixture of constituent materials, FGMs have more effective mechanical properties compared to laminated composite materials, which leads to eliminate the interlayer stress concentration. The most common usage of such materials is in thin-wall structures, such as plates and shells. Plates due to their extensive surface and low thickness, not only have low resistance against the blast loads, but also experience large displacements. Hence, utilizing FGM plates because of their constituents materials which have a power distribution in the direction of thickness, will lead to resistance improvement and displacement reduction. In this research, ABAQUS finite element software has been used to study geometric nonlinear dynamic response of Stainless steel-Silicon nitride FGM plates against the blast loads. The effect of volume fraction index, plate aspect ratio, plate thickness, the amount of explosive material and its distance and also the effect of Replica scale with Hopkinson scale are investigated in this study. The results show that with rising in the volume fraction index (from zero to infinity), increasing in the distance of explosion center to the plate (from 500mm to 900mm) and plate thickness (from 6mm to 18mm), the maximum amount of displacement of the plate have decreased by %29/1, %43/64 and %87/74 respectively. On the other hand, by expansion of the plate dimensions ratio (from 1 to 2) and increasement in the amount of explosive material (from 5 to 25gr), the maximum displacement of the plate have increased by 1/06 and 3/09 respectively. Also, it has been observed that changes in materials properties along with plate thickness don’t have any effect on scaling. |
