    • Finite Element Analysis of Sandwich T-Joints Subjected to Water Slamming Loads 

      Rivera Santos, Luis J. (Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2018)
      This article evaluates the structural response of a sandwich ship hull with T-joint longitudinal stiffeners subjected to water slamming. Finite element analysis was conducted using the commercial code LS-DYNA. The ...
    • Finite Element Modeling of Water Slamming on Sandwich Hull Structures 

      Rivera Yusif, Juan (Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico, 2017)
      This article evaluates the structural response of ship hull sandwich panels subjected to water slamming. Structural responses were obtained from several finite element (FE) model simulations developed by using the ...
