The development of lightweight, impact-resistant, and high energy-consuming materials is of great significance for improving the defense capabilities of military equipment. As a new type of damping material, metal rubber has demonstrated great potential for application in the field of impact protection. In this paper, the dynamic mechanical response of metal rubber under a high strain rate is studied, which provides a new idea for developing high-performance protective materials. The stress-strain curves, energy absorption performance, and wave transmission performance of metal rubber at various strain rates were investigated based on a split-Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) device. The dynamic stress-strain curve of metal rubber is divided into three stages: elastic stage, plastic stage, and failure stage. The optimal energy absorption efficiency is greater than 0.5, and the maximum value can reach 0.9. The wave transmittance is less than 0.01. The dynamic mechanical tests have proved that metal rubber has excellent energy absorption capacity and impact resistance property. A constitutive model based on Sherwood–Frost was established to predict the dynamic mechanical behavior of metal rubber. The results of comparison between the calculation and the experiment show that the constitutive model can accurately predict the dynamic mechanical performance of metal rubber.

The Impact

Dynamic impact experiments of man-made rock were carried out with the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) apparatus in this paper. The impact process was analyzed and the influence of rock porosity on dynamic mechanical behavior was investigated. The stress-strain curves in rock were obtained by the one-dimensional stress wave theory. The curve lays foundation for numeric simulation of rock fracture under impact loading. The damage profiles of rock specimen under the impact loading show that the man-made rock exhibits obvious shear damage under the impact loading because it is a typical porous medium containing large quantities of defects such as pores, cracks and grain boundaries at the microscale. The experimental results also indicated that rock porosity plays an important role in dynamic mechanical behavior.

Dynamic Mechanical Behavior

Flax fiber-reinforced composites (FFRCs) exhibit excellent environmentally friendly qualities, such as light weight, low cost, recyclability, and excellent mechanical properties. Understanding the dynamic mechanical behavior of FFRCs could broaden their potential applications in lightweight, crashworthy, and impact-critical structures. This study presents a study on the fabrication of FFRCs by vacuum-assisted resin infusion. The dynamic stress–strain responses of the fabricated specimens at strain rates ranging from 0.006 s-1 to 2200 s-1 were evaluated using quasi-static tests and the Split–Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB). The results indicated that the FFRC exhibited superior strain rate sensitivity. Final deformation photographs and scanning electron micrographs clearly revealed the damage evolution of the FFRC specimens, as well as various failure mechanisms, including fiber–matrix debonding, fiber pull-out, and fiber fracture at different strain rates. On the basis of the experimental results, a simplified Johnson–Cook model was established to describe the strain-rate dependent constitutive model of FFRC. The validation of the suggested constitutive model was embedded in the finite element simulations and could well repeat the strain wave observed from the experiment results. Finally, the quasi-static compression and drop-hammer impact of pyramidal lattice structures with FFRC cores were investigated both numerically and experimentally, proving the effectiveness of the simplified Johnson–Cook model. This study could potentially contribute to a deeper understanding of the dynamic mechanical behavior of FFRCs and provide fundamental experimental data for future engineering applications.

Dynamic Mechanical Behavior

Static and dynamic testing performed on steel beer and soda cans has indicated that the cans, when loaded along the longitudinal axis, possess mechanical properties ideal for shock absorption. The static and dynamic mechanical behavior of the 12 oz steel cans is presented. It was shown that the energy absorption capability of the cans is not strongly dependent upon impact velocity. Moreover it was shown that pneumatic forces caused by air entrapped in the cans contribute significantly to the total force in the can during impact.

The Ideal

A split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) experiment was done to examine the feasibility and explosion resistance of high-damping rubber materials developed for use in the area of antiexplosion applications. Through the experiment, the dynamic mechanical properties of the high-damping rubber were determined. The existence of dynamic compressive stress-strain curves at various strain rates of the high-damping rubber have been confirmed from the SHPB experiment. The variation law of the dynamic compression performance with the strain rate is studied, and the energy absorption characteristics of high-damping rubber materials are analyzed. To study the microstructural changes of the high-damping rubber before and after impact, a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) test was done. The results indicated that the stress-strain curve and dynamic modulus of high-damping rubber has an obvious strain rate effect, and the strength and energy absorption ability of high-damping rubber material increases with an increase in the strain rate; the ideal energy absorption efficiency of high-damping rubber can reach 0.8 at a high strain rate and the ideal energy absorption efficiency is more than 0.5 in a wide deformation range; when compared with aluminum foam, the energy absorption effect for high-damping rubber is more apparent. In the event of a compressed deformation or the creation of holes, there may be a change in the main internal mechanism of the high buffering and energy absorption capacity of the high-damping rubber.
