“physical substitute materials are often used instead of real birds. This study investigates the soft impact loading on aluminium and laminated glass targets from ballistic gelatine and rubber projectiles” by @charalambides_m at @ImperialMechEng

Experimental and numerical investigation of high velocity soft impact loading on aircraft materials - ScienceDirect . We developed SPH models for bird strike on fuselage and windshield. Shock properties of bird simulant are important for impact load. ht…
