Abstract


To study the dynamic response characteristics and failure process of single-layer spherical reticulated shells under impact loads at different loading points, impact dynamic analysis and experimental study are conducted on the K6 single-layer reticulated shell structure. First, the basic theory of numerical calculation and the model parameters are described. Then, dynamic response analysis under impact load is done by choosing different impact points. Finally, the impact test is performed on a large-scale shell model, dynamic response data of key members and nodes of shell structure are obtained, and the shell deformation and destruction process is recorded by a high-speed camera. The results show that the structural dynamic response gradually increases farther from the base point under the same impact force. The nearer the impact point is, the earlier the response occurs, and the larger the corresponding amplitude will be. The apex is the most unfavorable impact loading point, and the member at the apex should be strengthened for impact resistant design of the reticulated shell. The transmission time of the impact dynamic response from the impact site to the entire reticulated shell is short.
