Sharp tools in a production environment can puncture fragile components. This project analyzes a slender probe as it penetrates a ductile material. Finite element models of probe penetration problems need material models that are accurate through the full range of strain. Elastic properties are frequently derived and are available for most metals with a strong statistical basis. Stress-strain curves including the plastic range are limited and usually stop at the ultimate strength, where void nucleation occurs. Criteria for damage accumulation and rupture are difficult to obtain for many materials. Tests have been performed on coupons of 7075-T651 plate with three probes. The geometry of the coupon and probes are provided, as well as appropriate initial and boundary conditions. The mean energy required for each of the probes to penetrate the coupon is also provided. The objective of this project is to demonstrate three advanced material models for 7075-T651 plate with failure criteria and derive the requisite parameters for each model.
