The main objective is to calculate the frequency response functions of different types of materials subjected to impact conditions, to characterize their dynamic behavior. Also, perform the set up of the instrumentation to carry out the experiments. It is intended to use the finite element method (FEM) in ANSYS and compare the results with experiments.

Freefall drop test

Recently results from mathematical model

Expected approximations using FEM.

Implementation of a test bench to obtain the experimental signals.
