Abstract

This paper focused on numerical modelling of metal rings subjected to fixed-end constant loading impacts. The mechanical parameters of loading reaction force and strain were analysed and visual data recorded. Different rate of loadings and ring thicknesses were studied to examine their impact on these factors. Hollow spheres were also similarly analysed. The deformation processes of both rings and spheres were analysed and discussed, particularly the mechanism of deformation and load and strain histories, and those of rings and spheres compared to one another.
