Quasi Static Compression

Quasi-static compression and puncture methods of measuring eggshell strength were compared by testing consecutive eggs from each of 89 birds alternately until eight eggs per bird were tested by each method. Results indicated that the tensile and shear fracture properties of the shell material were linearly related to each other, and to shell thickness and specific gravity. Both puncture force and compression fracture force were significantly different on a between-hen basis even when adjusted for shell thickness. Puncture force was more closely related to shell thickness on a between-egg basis than was compression fracture force. Puncture force was not related to shell thickness on a within-egg basis. The increase in accuracy gained from repeated puncture measurements on a within-egg basis was discussed.

The beta backscatter technique can be used td predict eggshell thickness, but with less accuracy than obtained from the specific gravity of the egg. Beta backscatter measurements can account for 40% of the variation in shell thickness but only 20% of the variation in fracture force.

Quasi Static Compression

A fractional derivative model of dissipative effects is combined with a nonlinear elastic model to model the response of polyurethane foam in quasi-static compression tests. A system identification method is developed based on a separation of the elastic and viscoelastic parts of the response, which is possible because of symmetries in the imposed deformation timehistory. Simulations are used to evaluate the proposed identification method when noise is present in the response. The system identification technique is also applied with some success to experimental data taken from several compression experiments on two types of polyurethane foam blocks.

Quasi Static Compression

Dynamic and quasi-static compression tests were conducted on lotus-type porous iron with porosity of about 50% using the split Hopkinson pressure bar method and universal testing machine, respectively.　In the dynamic compression parallel to the pore direction, a plateau stress region appears where deformation proceeds at nearly constant stress, while the plateau stress region does not appear in the quasi-static compression. The plateau stress region is probably caused by the buckling deformation of matrix iron which occurs only in the dynamic compression. In contrast, the compression perpendicular to the orientation direction of pores exhibits no plateau-stress regions in the both dynamic and quasi-static compression.

Time Dependance

High damping rubber (HDR) is used in HDR bearings (HDRBs) which are dissipating devices in structural systems. These devices actually have to support permanent static load in compression and potential cyclic shear when earthquakes occur. Mastering the behavior of bearings implies an accurate understanding of HDR response in such configuration. The behavior of HDR is, however, complex due to the nonlinearity and time dependance of stress–strain response and especially Mullins effect. To the authors' knowledge, tests on HDR under combined quasi-static compression and cyclic shear (QC-CS) have not been performed with regard to Mullins effect yet. The purpose of this study is thus to assess experimentally Mullins effect in HDR, especially under QC-CS. In order to achieve this aim, cyclic tensile and compression tests were first carried out to confirm the occurrence of Mullins effect in the considered HDR. Then, an original biaxial setup allowing testing HDR specimen under QC-CS was developed. This setup enables us to identify Mullins effect of the considered HDR under this kind of loading. Tests carried out with this setup were thus widened to the study of the influence of compression stress on shear response under this loading, especially in terms of shear modulus and density of energy dissipation.

Abstract Metal foam is light in weight and exhibits an excellent impact absorbing capability. Laser forming has emerged as a promising process in shaping metal foam plates into desired geometry. While the feasibility and shaping mechanism has been studied, the effect of the laser forming process on the mechanical properties and the energy absorbing behavior in particular of the formed foam parts has not been well understood. This study comparatively investigated such effect on as-received and laser formed closed-cell aluminum alloy foam. In quasi-static compression tests, attention paid to the changes in the elastic region. Imperfections near the laser irradiated surface were closely examined and used to help elucidate the similarities and differences in as-received and laser formed specimens. Similarly, from the impact tests, differences in deformation and specific energy absorption were focused on, while relative density distribution and evolution of foam specimens were numerically investigated.

The oxidation of stainless steel hollow spheres stacking has been studied at 800, 900 and 1,000°C in laboratory air in the range of 200h. The experimental results based on the relative weight gain of oxidized samples revealed an effect of the sphere’s size over the kinetic of oxidation: the quicker oxidation of the material constitued by smallest spheres suggests that the ratio of exposed surface is preponderant in the oxidation mechanisms. A quasi total transformation of the metal into oxides has been observed after 100h at 1000°C. Some simple quasi-static compression tests highlighted a significant deterioration in mechanical resistance for samples oxidized for 100h at 900 and 1,000°C. The global collapse of the oxidized samples could be imputed to the presence of oxides into the shells porosities by implying a decrease of their ductility. In order to improve the mechanical resistance of oxidized hollow spheres stacking, the adding of a dense metallic undercoat is proposed. The concept is tested by producing small samples of nickel-based hollow spheres stacking. The observation of oxidized samples shows that the shell of hollow spheres are not totally oxidized, providing a continuous metallic squeletton beneficial for mechanical stiffness at high temperatures.

Quasi Static Compression

This article presents the results of a series of experimental testing and numerical modeling studies to optimize the parameters of a constitutive material model to accurately simulate the behavior of polystyrene crushable concrete during impact loading using LS-DYNA. Quasi-static compression tests and confined drop impact tests were conducted. To model the quasi-static compression tests, the response surface methodology was used to optimize Poisson’s ratio and friction angle in the pseudo-tensor model in LS-DYNA. Using the optimized model parameters, the simulated compression stress versus strain relationship showed an excellent agreement with those from the compression tests. To model the confined drop impact tests, the strain rate sensitivity parameter in LS-DYNA was optimized by comparing the drop impact simulations at different strain rate sensitivity values with the drop impact tests. This study suggests that the pseudo-tensor material model is potentially suitable for modeling crushable concrete. Although the optimized constitutive model parameters are specific for the polystyrene concrete mix used in this study, similar approach can be used to optimize model parameters for other polystyrene concrete mixes.
