The material behavior selection is an important factor governing the structural response analysis of transverse impact problems, such as impact force, indentation and local elastic plastic deformation. In the present paper, the effects of strain hardening exponent (n) and strain rate sensitivity (m) on the transient response were investigated for low impact velocity by the aid of finite element simulation using the Abaqus Software. Investigated parameters are impact force histories, indentation and plastic strain (PEEQ). Results showed that the effect of n values on required parameters is more pronounced, unlike strain rate sensitivity which has not a significant influence. As well, material behavior selection is essential for an accurate local plastic strain analysis.
