Abstract
Nonlinear finite element analysis techniques were applied in the optimization of energy absorbers in weapon systems. Powerful analytical tools for establishing trends due to various designs were developed without involving extensive and time consuming testings. A case study was performed to evaluate the benefits and efficiencies gained through the use of Computer Aided Engineering and Finite Element Applications to Ordnance Systems.
