Thin circular metal plates subjected to localised impulsive loads

This thesis presents a theoretical model to predict the response of thin circular metal plates subjected to localised impulsive loads. These predictions are compared to experimental data and a finite element model. The theoretical model is described by two models where the first model predicts the p...
