ABSTRACTThe behavior of metal foams under rapid loading conditions is assessed. Dynamic loading experiments were conducted in our laboratory using a split Hopkinson pressure bar apparatus and a drop weight tester; strain rates ranged from 45 s−1 to 1200 s−1. The implications of these experiments on open-cell, porous metals, and closed- and open-cell polymer foams are described. It is shown that there are two possible strain-rate dependent contributors to the impact resistance of cellular metals: (i) elastic-plastic resistance of the cellular metal “skeleton,” and (ii) the gas pressure generated by gas flow within distorted open cells. A theoretical basis for these implications is presented.

AbstractThe failure characteristics of rock subjected to impact disturbance under one-dimensional static axial compression are helpful for studying the problems of pillar instability and rock burst in deep, high geostress surrounding rock under blasting disturbances. Improved split Hopkinson pressure bar equipment was used for one-dimensional dynamic–static combined impact tests of deep-seated dolomite specimens under axial compression levels of 0, 12, 24, and 36 MPa. The experimental results demonstrate that the dolomite specimens exhibit strong brittleness. The dynamic strength always maintains a strong positive correlation with the strain rate when the axial compression is fixed; when the strain rate is close, the dynamic elasticity modulus and peak strength of the specimens first increase and then decrease with the increase in axial compression, and the peak value appears at 24 MPa. The impact resistance of specimens can be enhanced when the axial compression is 12 or 24 MPa, but when it increases to 36 MPa, the damage inside the specimen begins to cause damage to the dynamic rock strength. Prior to the rock macroscopic failure, the axial static load changes the rock structure state, and it can store strain energy or cause irreversible damage.

The Impact

The strategic concrete structures are often required to resist impact loads arising from the projectile strike, falling weight, blast generated missile etc. The existing structures found deficient in resisting these loads are required to be retrofitted whereas the upcoming structures are required to be designed for expected impact loads. This paper explores the ways of strengthening existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures using externally bonded carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) sheets and improving the impact resistance of concrete by mixing hybrid fibers in its production. The impact response of concrete structures is assessed using experiments involving the impact of projectiles of different nose shapes on slab specimens. The material behavior at high strain rate is established using split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) testing at varying strain rates. Analytical models are developed for predicting penetration depth, scabbing thickness, ballistic limit velocity and ejected mass. The experimental results were also validated through numerical modeling using LS-DYNA.

Under impact load, the dynamic mechanical properties of rock are complex and changeable. The Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) system was used to change the impact load to carry out different strain rate loading tests on granite with different aspect ratios, and to analyze the influence of strain rate and aspect ratio on the dynamic energy consumption of granite crushing. The results show that at an impact velocity of 14 m/s, the granite with an aspect ratio of 1.4 appears to be strip-shaped fragments after being broken; the granite with an aspect ratio of 1.0 uniform square fragments after being broken; the granite with an aspect ratio of 0.6 appears to be a large number of flat fragments after being broken. When the load strain rate of the granite with an aspect ratio of 0.6 increases from 50 s-1 to 150 s-1, the energy-time density index increases significantly; when the load strain rate exceeds 150 s-1, the energy-time density index decreases. When the strain rate of granite with an aspect ratio of 1.0 exceeds 80 s-1, the energy-time density increases significantly. When the strain rate of the granite with an aspect ratio of 1.4 exceeds 60 s-1, the rate of increase of the energy-time density of the rock increases significantly.

Axial Splitting

The mechanical behavior of two composites, i.e., CF3031/QY8911 (CQ, hereafter in this paper) and EW100A/BA9916 (EB, hereafter in this paper), under dynamic loadings were carefully studied by using split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) system. The results show that compressive strength of CQ increases with increasing strain-rates, while for EB the compressive strength at strain-rate 1500/s is lower then that at 800/s or 400/s. More interestingly, most of the stress strain curves of both of the two composites are not monotonous but exhibit double-peak shape. To identify this unusual phenominon, a high speed photographic system is introduced. The deformation as well as fracture characteristics of the composites under dynamic loadings were captured. The photoes indicate that two different failure mechanisms work during dynamic fracture process. The first one is axial splitting between the fiber and the matrix and the second one is overall shear. The interficial strength between the fiber and matrix, which is also strain rate dependent, determines the fracture modes and the shape of the stress/strain curves.

High strain-rate compressive responses of AA7075-T651 and its welds as produced by the friction stir welding (or FSW) process are investigated using the conventional split Hopkinson pressure bar. Cylindrical specimens machined along the thickness direction of the base material (AA7075-T651) and the friction stir (FS) welds are used in the static and impact compression tests. The micro-hardness tests are conducted across the centerline of a FS welded AA707-T651 joint in order to examine the microstructural change. It is shown that FSW reduces the compressive flow stress of the FS weld (weld nugget) to below that of the base material, and both the base material and the FS weld exhibit almost no strain rate effects up to nearly € ε˙ =103/s.

The purpose of this study is to elucidate the effect of foam structure on the impact compressive properties of foamed polyethylene film. Three types of foamed PE film were prepared, which have different foam structure: base type, spheral type and dense type. A quasi-static test was performed using a universal testing machine at the strain rate of 10-3~10-1s-1. Impact tests were carried out using a drop-weight testing machine at the strain rate of 101~102s-1 and using a split Hopkinson pressure bar method at the strain rate of approximately 103s-1. It was confirmed that the foamed PE film shows an increase of the flow stress with increasing of the strain rate, regardless of the specimen type. In the spheral type specimen, the elastic response is observed immediately after compression because the cell shape of this specimen has high bending resistance in comparison with the other two specimens. In addition, it is confirmed that the relative density and cell size affects the flow stress in the foamed PE film.

The compressive properties of foamed polyethylene (PE) film with a closed cell for electronic devices have been investigated. A commercial closed cell foamed PE film with a density of 330 kg/m3 was used. Quasi-static testing was carried out at strain rates of 10−3 to 10−1 s−1. The strain rate of the impact test was approximately 105 s−1 by means of split Hopkinson pressure bar method. Within the set of experiments, the compressive stress increased with the strain rate in both the quasi-static and impact test. In particular, the flow stress increased substantially with the increasing strain rate in the impact deformation. At strains of less than 0.4, the trapped air was locally compressed within the cells, which led to the strain rate dependency of strength in the quasi-static test and the impact test.

The impact compressive failure behaviour of a unidirectional T700/2521 carbon/epoxy composite in three principal material directions is investigated in the conventional split Hopkinson pressure bar. Two different types of specimens with square cross sections are machined from the composite in the plane of the laminate. The uniaxial compressive stress-strain curves up to failure at quasi-static and intermediate strain rates are measured on an Instron testing machine. It is demonstrated that the ultimate compressive strength (or maximum stress) increases slightly, while the ultimate compressive strain (or failure strain) decreases marginally with strain rate in the range of 10-3 to 103/s in all three directions. Dominant failure mechanisms are found to significantly vary with strain rate and loading directions along three principal material axes.

The dynamic stress-strain behavior of the AZ91 alloys in different treatment conditions (as-cast, T4 and T6) was investigated by means of split Hopkinson pressure bar. It was found that the flow stress increased at first, and then declined with the strain rate increasing at the range of 102~103s-1 for the alloys in these three conditions. And the alloys exhibited both positive and negative strain rate effects. The former was caused by strain rate strengthening and the latter was caused by strain rate weakening. However the flow stress for the alloy in aged condition at the same strain rate was higher than both of the alloys in as-cast and solution conditions. The study also showed that the maximum strains of the alloys in different conditions increased with the strain rate increasing, and the strain rate to fracture for the alloy in solution condition was higher than those of other two alloys. The work-hardening of α–Mg matrix and the reinforcement of β-Mg17Al12 phases led to the strengthening of the alloy, while thermal softening of matrix, the fracture of β phases and initiation and propagation of the cracks were responsible for the weakening of the alloy.
