Abstract

Punch loading is a loading scenario to study the fracture mechanism of materials at low strain rates. In this paper, punch loading experiments of Polymer Bonded Explosives (PBXs) materials were simulated by manifold method. The flat and wedge shaped punch were used to investigate the difference of shear stress field and crack propagation mechanism. The predicted results are in good agreement with experimental results.
