Nanohardness of alumina ceramics determines its performance in all contact-related applications because the issue of structural integrity gets determined at the nanoscale of contact. In spite of the wealth of the literature, however, it is not yet known in significant details how the high-strain rate flyer-plate impact at different pressure affects the nanohardness of dense, coarse grain alumina ceramics. Thus, the load controlled nanoindentation experiments were performed with a Berkovich indenter on an as-received coarse grain (~10 μm), high density (~3.98 gm·cc−1) alumina, and shock recovered tiny fragments of the same alumina obtained from gas gun experiments conducted at 6.5 GPa and 12 GPa shock pressures with stainless steel flyer plates. The nanohardness of the as-received alumina was much higher than that of the 6.5 GPa and 12 GPa shock-recovered alumina. The indentation size effect (ISE) was the strongest in alumina shocked at 12 GPa and strong in alumina shocked at 6.5 GPa, but it was mild in the as-received alumina sample. These results were rationalized by analysis of the experimental load depth data and evidences obtained from field emission scanning electron microscopy. In addition, a rational picture of the nanoindentation responses of the as-received and shocked alumina ceramics was provided by a qualitative model.

Abstract This work investigates the importance of the microstructure of boron carbide for initiating inelastic deformation under impact conditions. Simple loading resulting from a flyer plate impact geometry is used to illustrate the importance of microstructure for the well-controlled and easily instrumented experimental geometry. A second set of simulations is performed on a miniaturized impact geometry to investigate the importance of the microstructure for the early stages of semi-infinite penetration for impact velocities between 0.9 km/s and 1.9 km/s. The effect of the microstructure is more pronounced for the flyer plate impact geometry.

Different Thickness

Plate impact test on medium carbon steel were carried out to the target plate by impacting the flyer plate with one-third and two-thirds thickness of the target plate. The spall damage within the target plate was evaluated non-destructively with a low frequency scanning acoustic microscope as well as ultrasonic velocity and backscattering intensity. We observed the spall damage distribution by the B-and Cscan images. The distribution of spall damage through the plate thickness depends on the tensile stress area within the target plate. The difference of spall damage distribution was investigated by the plate impact test by flyer plate with different thickness. In the plate impact test by the flyer plate with 1/3 target plate thickness, the spall damage was generated by tensile stress area which superposed in the back surface side. On the other hand, in the case of 2/3 target plate thickness, the spall damage was detected at the impact surface side. By generating the spall damage in the different position through the target thickness, it will be possible to evaluate the accumulation of spall damage by reflection and transmission of the stress wave at the internal damage subjected to repeated impact.
