Hen’s eggshell strength under impact loading
2009
Abstract An experimental method for evaluation of an eggshell’s mechanical characteristics under impact loading is discussed. Proposed experimental set up enables recording of time history of the force at the contact area between the rod and eggshell, as well as the vibration response of the tested egg. By the gradual increasing of the rod impact velocity, a rupture force of the eggshell was determined. The value of this force depends on the position of the rod impact. This dependence is more significant than that of static loading of the eggs. The preliminary results also show the non-negligible dependence of rupture force on the loading rate. An introductory numerical simulation of the given test was also performed. The LS DYNA finite element code was used. Numerical results exhibit reasonable agreement with experimental results.
