Picture an explosion, while such, an aluminum pipe blasts away due to explosive pressure and hits a solid steel column, deforms, then broken into pieces due to excessive strain.
This is demonstrated using an explicit dynamic analysis system in Ansys Workbench 2021 R2.
The solid steel column and the aluminum pipe is both 50mm in diameter and have a length of 200mm. The steel column is modeled as a rigid body fixed in space. The thickness of the aluminum pipe is 1mm thick. The pipe travelled at a speed of 300 m/s before smashing into the column.
