Impact Events

When impacted by a projectile, ballistic protection undergoes very large strain rates over very short periods of time. During these impact events, materials will undergo a very short region of elastic deformation, before undergoing significant plastic deformation. Due to the high levels of plastic deformation the samples undergo, strain gauges and other embedded sensors are often ineffective or become damaged before useful data can be obtained. Three-dimensional digital image correlation (3D DIC) is a non-invasive measurement method that uses two high-speed cameras, offset from each other by 15–45° to observe a speckle pattern on the sample material. As the material, and by extension the speckle pattern, deforms, the images taken throughout the deformation can be compared in sequence, to determine the motion and deformation of the sample. Recent advances in camera technology have allowed for frame rates in the hundreds of thousands of frames per-second, allowing for the measurement of very high-strain rate impact events. This paper will describe the premise of 3D DIC and provide a review of the current applications and research into high-speed impact testing using 3D DIC.

The Impact

Response of brittle plate to impact loads has been the subject of many research studies [1–7]. Specifically, glass presents a wide variety of applications in daily life, and helps to protect the displays of smartphones, tablets, PCs, and TVs from everyday wear and tear. Therefore, the necessity of glass to resist scratches, drop impacts, and bumps from everyday use leads to the importance of investigation of the glass response under dynamic impact loading. The ball drop test has been applied in the past, specifying an energy threshold as a prediction metric. Use of energy as the key parameter in impact testing is limited, since it does not account for the time spent in contact during the impact event. This study attempts to establish a reliable metric for impact testing based on a momentum change threshold. The deformation and the strain of the glass will be obtained by the Digital Image Correlation (DIC) system, while the rebound velocity will be measured with the high speed cameras. The global and local measurements are conducted to verify the accuracy of the experimental results. Finally, the FEA model is developed using ANSYS/LS-DYNA to provide a comprehensive understanding of the dynamic response of the glass. Excellent correlation in deflection is obtained between the measurements and predictions.

Comprehensive understanding of thermomechanical response and microstructure evolution during surface severe plastic deformation (S 2 PD) is important towards establishing controllable processing frameworks. In this study, the evolution of crystallographic textures during directional surface mechanical attrition treatment on copper was studied and modelled using the visco-plastic self-consistent framework. In situ high-speed imaging and digital image correlation of surface deformation in circular indentation were employed to elucidate mechanics occurring in a unit process deformation and to calibrate texture model parameters. Material response during directional surface mechanical attrition was simulated using a finite-element model coupled with the calibrated texture model. The crystallographic textures developed during S 2 PD were observed to be similar to those resultant from uniaxial compression. The implications of these results towards facilitating a processing-based framework to predict deformation mechanics and resulting crystallographic texture in S 2 PD configurations are briefly discussed.

Digital Image Correlation, DIC method is developed a low-cost digital image correlation coefficient method based on advanced digital cameras and high-speed computers. Traditionally, two or more cameras are widely applied for conducting 3-D monitoring. There are numerous parameters need to be accurately calibrated. Therefore, the results of 3-D accuracy are worse than that of 2-D accuracy. The feasibility of a single camera to collect image to analyze the three-dimensional rugged surface of material is proposed in this study. A three-dimensional facial mask-like human makeup test and plaster cast are used to test. The test results reveal that the coordinate error between these two photos of the three-dimensional facial mask-like human makeup test is only 0.002mm and the absolute displacement, rotate on z-axis, strain on z-axis and von Mises strain of analysis results are extremely close to the real surface plaster cast.

The main factors controlling the formation of the stern of explosively formed projectiles are investigated using numerical calculations in a three-dimensional formulation of a problem. To form folds in the stern, it is proposed to use thin-walled spherical segments with a peripheral thickness deviation in terms of decreasing or increasing with respect to the thickness in the central part. The configurations of explosively formed projectiles with inclined folds in the stern are shown, and it is proposed to describe the fold inclination by two angles of its position. The effect of folds in the stern on the change in aerodynamic coefficients for a wide range of angle of attack is numerically studied. The angular velocity of the axial rotation of explosively formed projectiles with inclined folds in the stern is estimated based on the Newton method and considering the angles of its position. The results obtained are of interest to specialists working in the field of physics of explosion and high-speed impact, as well as those dealing with aerodynamics of aircrafts, mainly of axisymmetric shape

Valve Implantation

The transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) valve is a bioprosthetic valve within a metal stent frame. Like traditional surgical bioprosthetic valves, the TAVI valve leaflet tissue is expected to calcify and degrade over time. However, clinical studies of TAVI valve longevity are still limited. In order to indirectly assess the longevity of TAVI valves, an estimate of the mechanical wear and tear in terms of valvular deformation and strain of the leaflets under various conditions is warranted. The aim of this study was, therefore, to develop a platform for noncontact TAVI valve deformation analysis with both high temporal and spatial resolutions based on stereophotogrammetry and digital image correlation (DIC). A left-heart pulsatile in vitro flow loop system for mounting of TAVI valves was designed. The system enabled high-resolution imaging of all three TAVI valve leaflets simultaneously for up to 2000 frames per second through two high-speed cameras allowing three-dimensional analyses. A coating technique for applying a stochastic pattern on the leaflets of the TAVI valve was developed. The technique allowed a pattern recognition software to apply frame-by-frame cross correlation based deformation measurements from which the leaflet motions and the strain fields were derived. The spatiotemporal development of a very detailed strain field was obtained with a 0.5 ms time resolution and a spatial resolution of 72 μm/pixel. Hence, a platform offering a new and enhanced supplementary experimental evaluation of tissue valves during various conditions in vitro is presented.

The Impact

Nanocomposites attracted the attention of scientists due to their superior mechanical, thermal, chemical and electrical properties. This research studied the impact of adding carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to the woven Kevlar laminated composites on the high and low speed impact characteristics. Different percentages of CNTs were added to the woven Kevlar-Vinylester composite materials. An in-house developed drop weight testing apparatus was utilized for the low speed impact testing. Two different concentrations of the CNTs were added to a 15-layer woven Kevlar laminates, 0.32 wt% and 0.8 wt%. The results showed that: The 0.32 wt % CNT sample enhanced the interlaminar strength of the composite without enhancing the energy absorption capacity whereas, the 0.8 wt % CNT sample did not improve the impact resistance of the Kevlar composite.For the high speed impact tests, a bulletproof vest was prepared using woven Kevlar, resin, and CNTs at 1.5 w% percentage. The ballistic shooting was carried out by a professional shooter using a 30 caliber and 9 mm bullets for the tests. The CNT bulletproof sample bounced back the 30 caliber copper alloy bullet with no penetration.

Digital image correlation method (DICM) is described as a robust in-plane deformation measuring method due to its simple optical setup and the insensitivity against ambient noise. Based on DICM, digital speckle projection has been developed for shape measurement. This paper explores the possibilities for vibration analysis using digital speckle projection together with DICM. A digital speckle pattern, generated by computer, is projected on an object surface using an LCD projector. Then the dynamic deformation modulated speckle images are captured by a high-speed CCD camera and saved in the computer. By using the self-developed temporal sequence digital images correlation algorithm, the deformation and vibration mode can be analyzed quantitatively. The proposed method avoids using stroboscopic or laser illumination and simplifies the experimental setup for vibration measurement, while it is time-consuming thanks to calculating a large amount of correlation coefficients. The experimental performance on a harmonic-vibrating cantilever beam well demonstrates the validity of the new method.
