Study on Additional Kinetic Energy in Linear Shaped Charge Cutting of Titanium Alloy Plates
A study was conducted using explosive cutting cords to titanium alloy plates to quantitatively investigate the additional kinetic energy generated during blade fracture in aviation engine case inclusion experiments. The additional kinetic energy was analyzed through both computational and experimental approaches. Using AUTODYN software, two computational methods were employed: the center-of-mass motion method (yielding E1) and the particle-by-particle accumulation method (yielding E2). The accuracy of these methods was systematically compared. Experimental validation was achieved by measuring the additional kinetic energy (E3) in controlled explosion experiments. The computational results were verified against experimental data, confirming the reliability of both the simulation and testing methodologies. The study reveals that the maximum additional kinetic energy generated during the severance of titanium alloy plates constitutes a smaller proportion of the total kinetic energy proportion than the threshold proposed by the FAA company. These findings provide critical insights for designing and evaluating cartridge inclusion experiments in aviation safety applications.
