AbstractPhosphate-based chemically bonded ceramics were formed from magnesium potassium phosphate (MKP) binder and either industrial fly ash or steel slag. The resulting ceramics were subjected to solid-particle erosion by a stream of either angular Al2O3 particles or rounded SiO2 sand. Particle impact angles were 30 or 90° and the impact velocity was 50 m/s. Steady-state erosion rates, measured as mass lost from a specimen per mass of impacting particle, were dependent on impact angle and on erodent particle size and shape. Material was lost by a combination of fracture mechanisms. Evolution of H2O from the MKP phase appeared to contribute significantly to the material loss.

Abstract Usually, rail materials are exactly affected by the erosion of windblown sand in the desert environment. For this reason, the influence of impact angle, particle velocity, and particle size on the erosion wear behavior of the U75V heat-treated rail steel, a material frequently employed in Chinese railways, were studied in this work. The results showed that, with increasing impact angle, the erosion rate increased between 15 deg and 45 deg, decreased between 45 deg and 75 deg, and then increased again between 75 deg and 90 deg. The highest erosion rate occurred at about 45 deg. When the particle velocity increased, the erosion rate increased approximately in a quadratic way. As the sand particle size increased, the erosion rate presented a decreasing trend. During the initial stage of erosion, shear craters, indentation craters, and ploughing craters were the main surface damage features. The shear craters predominated at the impact angle of 45 deg whereas the indentation craters predominated at 90 deg. During the steady-state of erosion, the rail damage was mainly composed of craters, platelets, and cracks. Both the length and depth of craters increased almost linearly with increasing particle velocity, whereas the increased rate of length was significantly higher than that of depth. The length and depth of craters increased with increasing particle size at 90 deg, whereas only the length increased with increasing particle size at 45 deg. The microstructure evolution and the formation mechanism of platelet at low impact angles were different from those at high impact angles. Platelet formation was the main erosion wear mechanism.

The Impact

The erosion characteristics of gunmetal have been evaluated practically at different operating conditions. Asymmetrical silica sand (SiO2) is taken into account as erodent within range of 300–600 μm. The impact velocity within 30–50 m/sec, impact angle 15–900, and stand off distance 15–25 mm are inspected as other relevant operating test conditions. The maximum level of erosion is obtained at impact angle 15° which indicates the ductile manner of the tested gunmetal. The higher the impact velocity, the higher the erosion rate as almost linear fashion is observed. Mass loss of gunmetal reduces with the increase of stand-off distance. A dimensional analysis, erosion efficiency (η), and relationship between friction and erosion indicate the prominent correlation. The test results are designated using Taguchi’s and ANOVA concept.S/Nratio indicates that there are 1.72% deviations that are estimated between predicted and experimental results. To elaborately analyze the results, ANN and GMDH methods are mentioned. After erosion process of tested composite, the damage propagation on surfaces is examined using SEM for the confirmation of possible nature of wear behavior. The elemental composition of eroded test samples at varying percentage of gunmetal is analyzed by EDX analysis.

Effects of different impact angles such as 45°and 90°on the erosion-abrasion properties of eutectic Al-Mn alloy and its composites reinforced with Al2O3 particulates were studied by rotating erosion-abrasion test, and the microstructure and the worn surfaces were analyzed. The results show that the as-cast Al-Mn alloy is composed of aluminium-manganese solid solution, MnAl6 and Al11Mn4 phase, while the δ-Al2O3 particles are included in the composites besides the aforementioned microstructures. With elongating the erosion time, the wear rates of the Al-Mn alloy and its composites increase at the impact angle of 90°, whereas they firstly increase and then decrease , and there is a maximum at 45°. The distortion wear caused by the normal stress is dominant at 90°, which lead to the erosion pits on the worn surface. However, the cutting wear by the shear stress is predominant at 45°, which result in the ploughs.

In the present work, stepwise erosion technique was carried out to investigate in detail the influence of impact angle on the erosion process of AISI 5117 steel. The number of impact sites and their morphologies at different impact angles were investigated using scanning electron microscope (SEM) examination and image analysis. The tests were carried out with particle concentration of 1 wt. %, and the impact velocity of slurry stream was 15 m/s. Silica sand—which has a nominal size range of 250–355 μm—was used as an erodent, using whirling-arm test rig. The results have shown that the number of craters, as expected, increases with the increase in the mass of erodent for all impact angles and this number decreases with the increase of the impact angle. In addition, the counted number of craters is larger than the calculated number of particles at any stage for all impact angles. This may be explained by the effect of the rebound effect of particles, the irregular shape for these particles, and particle fragmentation. The effect of impact angle based on the impact crater shape can be divided into two regions; the first region for θ ≤ 60 deg and the second region for θ ≥ 75 deg. The shape of the craters is related to the dominant erosion mechanisms of plowing and microcutting in the first region and indentation and lip extrusion in the second region. In the first region, the length of the tracks decreases with the increase of impact angle. The calculated size ranges are from few micrometers to 100 μm for the first region and to 50 μm in the second region. Chipping of the former impact sites by subsequent impact particles plays an important role in developing erosion.

In recent years, light sport aircraft, which not only serve the purpose of personal recreation but also act as a means of transportation for medium and short distance travel, have rapidly gained popularity in the general aviation industry worldwide. The FAA established regulations for this new category of airplanes in 2004. However, the crashworthiness requirements for this type of airplane have not been clearly specified. This study used the finite element method to investigate the effect of the impact angle and speed of the LSA fuselage structure on passenger safety during a crash event. We used sink speed defined by NASA AGATE, ASTM and FAR as parameters. The passenger compartment reducing rate defined by MIL-STD-1290A was used for a safety boundary condition. The results show that the maximum cockpit reducing rate of the airplane impact angle is 30o. When the impact angle increases, owing to the engine mount and fire wall’s reinforced structure, this type of airplane can sustain a greater vertical drop speed. When the impact angle is about 80°~90°, the maximum impact speed the fuselage that can be sustained is 33 m/s. This work also completed a simulation of safe and unsafe ranges for light sport aircraft at various impact angles and vertical drop speeds during impact.

A computational study of a projectile (either 2024 aluminum or TiAl6V4 titanium alloy) impacting a plate (either titanium alloy or aluminum) is presented in this paper. Projectile velocity (ranging from 250 m/s to 1500 m/s) with varying impact angles are considered. The presence of ricochet (if any) is identified over the ranges of the projectile velocity and impact angle considered. For the cases where ricochet is identified, the ricochet angle and velocity are predicted as functions of the incident angle and the incident velocity. The numerical results are compared with an analytical solution of the ricochet problem. The analytical solutions are from a model developed to predict the ballistic ricochet of a projectile (projectile) penetrator. The dynamics and the deformation of an aluminum (or a titanium alloy) projectile impacting on a finite thickness titanium alloy (or aluminum) plate are simulated. The current work is interesting in that it looks in the field of ballistics of different material combinations than are traditionally studied. The present simulations based on detailed material models for the aluminum and the titanium alloy and the impact physics modelling features in the LS-DYNA code provide interesting details regarding the projectile/plate deformations and post-impact projectile shape and geometry. The present results indicate that for no cases (for specified incoming velocities and impact angles considered) can an aluminum projectile penetrate a titanium alloy plate. The ricochet ‘mode predictions ‘obtained from the present simulations agree well with the ricochet ‘mode predictions’ given in an analytical model.

The effects of bullet vehicle crash impact angle, child restraint system design, and restraint harness slack at side impact speed of 32.2 km/h (20 mph) on moments sustained at the neck by a three-year-old child are investigated. Mathematical models are built using the response surface method based on simulation results whereby good fitness is achieved. The singular and cross interactive effect of each predictor on the neck moment are analyzed. The number of significant parameters affecting the neck moment is shown to be the largest for wide impact angles (ϕ≥60°) and the impact angle parameter is largely revealed to be the most sensitive. An ideal safe range for low neck moment has been established to be within ϕ angles 45° and 65°. It is further shown that the nature of all parameters effect on the neck moment is highly dependent on the impact angle range.

Erosion tests were run to obtain data for designing a water-cooled gas turbine collection shroud. All tests utilized a coherent stream of water ejected from a static nozzle against stationary small block specimens. Twenty-one tests were run with aluminum specimens and 16 more tests with other materials. The impact velocity was varied from 165 to 270 m/s (540 to 890 fps). The impact angle was varied from 10 to 90 deg. The mass loss rate results generally show four erosion regions, which are consistent with the literature. A correlation between regions two and four was found. Aluminum specimen erosion rate was found to be unexpectedly high with impact angles of 10 deg and moderate-to-high impact velocity. No report of previous liquid erosion work at impact angles less than 30 deg was found; since it is expected that water-cooled gas turbines will operate at impact angles of about 15 deg, erosion in this low impact angle region should be studied. If the correlation between erosion regions two and four can be quantized, then very short-time tests could be used to predict long-term erosion at minimal cost.

Spherical impact indentation tests with different impact angles (90°, 60°, 45°, and 30°) was carried out to understand the effect of impact angles on damage degree of cement clinker. A linear rail which can adjust angle to alter impact velocity was used to guide the slipping impact head to impact the sample. The different steel wedge was used to change the impact angle. It is found that the area of damage surface for cement clinker is most serious the peak impact force for surface damage decreases but the contact indentation becomes longer with decreasing impact angle when the impact angle is 45°. Under almost the same impact velocity, the smaller the impact angle, the higher the impulse, the longer contact time, and the peak impact force of 45° is maximum.

Bloodstain pattern analysis is of tremendous value for the investigation of the evidence at the crime scene. Analyzing the bloodstain patterns provides an appropriate method for retracing the origin of blood droplets and also reconstruction of the crime scene. The patterns of the bloodstains on the floors and walls are determined by the impact conditions of blood drops such as droplet sizes, impact angles and velocities. The objective of this work is to study the bloodstain patterns on an inclined surface, in order to categorize the bloodstain shapes. The experiments have been carried out using a 38% glycerol solution at room temperature between 16° C∼21° C. The experiments have been done for three different droplet diameters, five different velocities and four different surface inclinations. The blood-mimicking fluid viscosity and density have been measured at the same temperature range with the experiments. The results have been investigated in terms of bloodstain shape and patterns and three different categories have been determined. In addition, a new mathematical formula has been derived based on the equivalent diameter of the bloodstains, which relates the bloodstain dimensions to the droplet Reynolds and Weber numbers. It has been shown that the proposed formula fits more accurately with the experimental results for high impact angle cases as compared to the classical formula.
