An Analytical Method for the Response of Coated Plates Subjected to One-Dimensional Underwater Weak Shock Wave

الملخص EN

An analytical method based on the wave theory is proposed to calculate the pressure at the interfaces of coated plate subjected to underwater weak shock wave.

The method is carried out to give analytical results by summing up the pressure increment, which can be calculated analytically, in time sequence.

The results are in very good agreement with the finite element (FE) predictions for the coating case and Taylor’s results for the noncoating case, which validate the method that is suitable for underwater weak shock problem.

On the other hand, Taylor’s results for the coating case are invalid, which indicates a potential application field for the method.

The extension of the analytical method to q-layer systems and dissipation case is also outlined.
