• Deformation and Fracture of Impulsively Loaded Sandwich Panels 

      Wadley, Haydn N.G.; Børvik, Tore; Olovsson, Lars; Wetzel, J.J.; Dharmasena, Kumar P.; Hopperstad, Odd Sture; Deshpande, Vikram; Hutchinson, J.W. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Light metal sandwich panel structures with cellular cores have attracted interest for multifunctional applications which exploit their high bend strength and impact energy absorption. This concept has been explored here ...
    • Discrete modeling of low-velocity penetration in sand 

      Holmen, Jens Kristian; Olovsson, Lars; Børvik, Tore (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      In this paper, a discrete particle method was evaluated and used in numerical simulations of low-velocity penetration in sand. Hemispherical, blunt, and ogival-nosed impactors were tested at striking velocities below 5 ...
    • Pipeline Fracture due to Compression-Tension Loading Caused by Foreign Object Impact 

      Kristoffersen, Martin; Børvik, Tore; Olovsson, Lars (Chapter, 2018)
      In areas frequented by fishing vessels, trawl equipment or anchors may interfere with pipelines and cause damage through impact, potential hooking, and ensuing release of the pipeline. This load sequence of denting followed ...
