...Y.J. Liu; Z.H. Wang; H.M. Wen Purpose The purpose of this paper is to predict the response and perforation of fibre metal laminates (FMLs) subjected to impact by projectiles at different velocities. Design/methodology/approach A finite element (FE) model is constructed in which recently...

... pressure fluctuations. Findings The results show that the response of the reacting flow field depends on both the frequency of fluctuations and the existence of the inlet shock wave. In addition, the inlet standing shock wave has some attenuating role, but the reacting flow shows an amplifying role...
