The present work investigates the energy absorption performance of carbon fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates subjected to low-velocity normal and oblique impacts. Experimental tests are conducted on laminates exposed to varying impact energies at both normal and oblique angles. The numerical model is developed to simulate the dynamic response of the CFRP. The research employs a combination of experimental and numerical methods to reveal the underlying damage mechanisms. The changes observed in the oblique impact response are explained through an analysis of the damage mechanisms. Analytical models for each energy absorption mechanism are proposed based on the principles of energy conservation and the theory of large bending deformation of anisotropic materials. The energy absorption performance of the laminates under oblique impacts, considering rebound and penetration conditions, is discussed. It is found that the delamination is the primary energy absorption mechanism of CFRP laminate under rebound conditions, while elastic deformation of fibres is the primary energy absorption mechanism under penetration conditions. Furthermore, the energy absorption performance of the laminate is found to be affected by the peak force and effective thickness of the plate, which change with the oblique angle. This paper makes a significant contribution by utilising experimental, numerical, and theoretical approaches to gain insights into the damage mechanisms of laminates subjected to oblique impacts.
