Large-scale fluid-structure interaction simulation of viscoplastic and fracturing thin shells subjected to shocks and detonations

The fluid-structure interaction simulation of shock- and detonation-loaded thin-walled structures requires numerical methods that can cope with large deformations as well as local topology changes. We present a robust level-set-based approach that integrates a Lagrangian thin-shell finite element so...
