Tensile Fractures

<p>Tensile fractures are ubiquitous in impact structures formed because of high strain rate deformations of the earth’s crust. At regions far from the point of meteorite impact, intense rupturing, fragmentation, and pulverisation are an implication of pressure waves limiting at the tensile strength of the host rock with little influence of shock deformation or shear failure. The branching and anastomosing of the fractures are controlled by the local stress state and anisotropy. Thus, a network of infilled fractures or impact breccia dikes is a common feature in the subsurface of impact sites.</p><p>We have investigated the failure processes under high strain rates responsible for the formation of Mode-I breccia dikes, at the laboratory scale. The control of planar fabric structures in the development of anastomosing tensile fracture networks was studied through high-strain-rate Brazilian disc tests on gneiss (foliated) and granite (isotropic) samples. A Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar, equipped with high-speed photography (~10<sup>5</sup> fps), was employed in the study. The gneissic foliation in the gneiss samples were oriented at θ = 0, 45 and 90° to the compression direction. The strength of granite lies between 24 and 26 MPa, and the gneisses failed in the range of 29-37MPa at about 70-90 μs. The fracture network formation was seen in the time series images. There is a stark disparity in the nature of failure of granite from gneiss and the geometry of clasts formed in each rock type. While granite samples fail with pulverised clasts localised along a single fracture spanning the diameter of the sample along the compression direction, the gneisses further developed a network of secondary fractures forming large elongate clasts. Preferential orientation of secondary crack growth in relation to the foliation is strongly influenced by <em>θ</em> in gneiss samples. The aspect ratio of the pulverised clasts (size < 10mm) formed in granite was about 1:2, whereas the gneisses produced larger clasts. The clasts in gneisses had an aspect ratio of 1:4 for <em>θ</em> = 45 and 90º, and 1:5 for <em>θ</em> = 0º.</p><p>The branching and anastomosing nature of fractures is similar in fracture networks observed from the field and in the experiments, thus providing an insight into the formation of high-speed impact breccia dikes in isotropic and foliated rocks. Our experiments demonstrate that monomict breccia dikes may by formed <em>in situ</em> inclusive of clasts, rather than by infilling in previously formed tensile fractures.</p>

Taylor Impact Test

The understanding of the deformation behavior of rubber materials under high strain-rate or high loading-rate conditions will be important in their impact applications adopting significant viscoelastic behavior. Taylor impact test has originally used to determine the average dynamic yield strength of metallic materials at high strain rates, but it also can be used to examine the overall deformation behavior of rubbers representing large elastic deformation by using a high-speed photography technique. Taylor impact tests of rubber materials were carried out in the velocity range between 100~250 m/s using a 20 mm air gun. In order to investigate the overall dynamic deformation behavior of rubber projectiles during Taylor impact test, a 8-Ch high-speed photography system which provides a series of images at each elapsed time was incorporated. Three kinds of rubber materials with different Tg (glass transition temperature) were supplied. The bulging behavior of rubber projectile could be evaluated quantitatively by digitizing images taken. Taylor impact tests at various temperature levels were conducted to predict the bulging behavior of rubbers at high strain rate.

Stress Wave Propagation

The dynamic response of the turbine blade materials is indispensable for analysis of erosions of turbine blades as a result of impulsive loading associated with gas flow. This paper is concerned with the dynamic material properties of the Inconel 718 alloy which is widely used in the high speed turbine blade. The dynamic response at the corresponding level of the strain rate should be acquired with an adequate experimental technique and apparatus due to the inertia effect and the stress wave propagation. In this paper, the dynamic response of the Inconel 718 at the intermediate strain rate ranged from 1/s to 400/s is obtained from the high speed tensile test and that at the high strain rate above 1000/s is obtained from the split Hopkinson pressure bar test. The effects of the strain rate on the dynamic flow stress, the strain rate sensitivity and the failure elongation are evaluated with the experimental results. Experimental results from both the quasi-static and the high strain rate up to 3000/s are interpolated in order to construct the constitutive relation that should be applied to simulate the dynamic behavior of the turbine blade made of the Inconel 718.

The Finite Element Method

The influence of the strain rate on the plastic deformation of the metals was significant during the high strain rate of loading. However, it was very difficult to obtain high strain rate data (≥ 104 s-1) by experimental techniques. Therefore, the finite element method and iterative method were employed in this study. Numerical simulation was used to characterise the deformation behavior of Hadfield steel during explosion treatment. Base on experimental data, a modified Johnson-Cook equation for Hadfield steel under various strain rate was fitted. The development of two field variables was quantified during explosion hardening: equivalent stress and strain rates.
