A methodology to develop a 3D Finite Element (FE) model of a full metal-lined Composite Overwrapped Pressure Vessel (COPV) was developed and is presented in this paper. The model is intended for prediction of the metal-composite delamination and residual dent depth developed in the metal liner as a result of quasi-static indentation loading. Cohesive elements are used to model the composite and the metal-composite interfaces. Experimental and numerical comparisons of force–displacement curves, delamination area and residual dent depth are presented. Numerical results are in good agreement to the experimental data.

Abstract

A methodology to develop a 3D Finite Element (FE) model of a full metal-lined Composite Overwrapped Pressure Vessel (COPV) was developed and is presented in this paper. The model is intended for prediction of the metal-composite delamination and residual dent depth developed in the metal liner as a result of quasi-static indentation loading. Cohesive elements are used to model the composite and the metal-composite interfaces. Experimental and numerical comparisons of force–displacement curves, delamination area and residual dent depth are presented. Numerical results are in good agreement to the experimental data.
