Abstract
The RHT concrete strength model and failure model are employed for the numerical simulations of composite projectile penetrating concrete targets. The simulations show that RHT parameters, specially the failure parameters, greatly influence the penetration depth, exit velocity. The failure mode of concrete should be paid great attentions in numerical analysis. If the crushing failure is the primary mechanism, RHT model seems effective. For the cracking process of concrete, the model should be tensile failure description. Reasonable material parameters are important in penetration simulations. Comparison between numerical analysis and experimental date is made for discussion about the parameter effects.
