In the present research, basalt fibre reinforced plastic laminates were obtained through infusion technology. From the plates, square specimens 90x150 mm in side, were cut by a diamond saw and tested in low velocity impact loads. A simplified numerical procedure in LS-Dyna able to predict maximum force, impact energy, strain velocity, delamination extension and its location along the thickness was studied. The results of the simulations were validated by the experimental investigations and the agreement found was quite good.

Abstract
In the present research, basalt fibre reinforced plastic laminates were obtained through infusion technology. From the plates, square specimens 90x150 mm in side, were cut by a diamond saw and tested in low velocity impact loads. A simplified numerical procedure in LS-Dyna able to predict maximum force, impact energy, strain velocity, delamination extension and its location along the thickness was studied. The results of the simulations were validated by the experimental investigations and the agreement found was quite good.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
