Abstract:
A method is proposed to calculate a spherical shell under nonaxisymmetric impact of a massive body. The motion of the shell is described by momentless equations, which are solved using the Laplace transformation and an asymptotic expansion of the required quantities in a small parameter. The contact interaction force $P(t)$ was determined for the elastoplastic model of local bearing deformation for a parabolic impactor. Plots of the solution are given. The validity of the results is confirmed by good agreement between the solution and the limiting cases – an axisymmetric impact and an impact on a half-space.
