Taylor Impact Test and Penetration of Reinforced Concrete Targets by Cylindrical Composite Rods

We use the three-dimensional finite element code DYNA3D to analyze two problems: (a) the normal impact of a cylindrical monolithic or composite rod against a smooth flat rigid target, (commonly known as the Taylor impact test), and (b) the penetration of composite and monolithic steel cylindrical r...
