Notes:
A model for predicting the contact duration, force, indentation, and displacement under impact has been developed for impact of a composite laminated plate with a hemispherical indenter. The governing equations were first proposed and then solved with the initial conditions along with the peak force condition. An expression forr each parameter has been obtained in a simple expression through straightforward derivation. Both static and dynamic tests have been conducted. Ten impact tests were conducted using a weight drop tower tester. Comparison between the, model predictions and the experimental data on the impact duration and impulse are provided, and were found to be within 14% for all tests involved. Comparison of the impact force-history also shows good accord.
