Split Hopkinson

Mechanical characterisation of metallic materials at intermediate strain rates is essential to calibrate and validate computational models for industrial applications such as high-speed forming processes i.e. hammer forging, blanking, forming, etc. The most common devices that perform medium to high loading rate experiments are the servo-hydraulic universal testing machines and Split Hopkinson bar systems. Here we analyse the possibility of employing an in-house designed and constructed DirectImpact Drop Hammer (DIDH) for material mechanical characterisation at medium strain rates, ranging from 100 to 300 s-1. To show the suitability of the DIDH for mechanical characterisation, uniaxial compression experiments on S235JR structural steel are conducted and compared with finite element (FE) simulations performed with an elasticthermoviscoplastic material model previously calibrated with Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) tests.

Additive manufacturing by Selective Laser Melting of metals is attracting substantial attention, due to its advantages, such as short-time production of customized structures. This technique is useful for building complex components using a metallic pre-alloyed powder. One of the most used materials in AMSLM is AlSi10Mg powder. Additively manufactured AlSi10Mg may be used as a structural material and it static mechanical properties were widely investigated. Properties in the strain rates of 5×102–1.6×103 s-1 and at higher strain rates of 5×103 –105 s-1 have been also reported. The aim of this study is investigation of dynamic properties in the 7×102–8×103 s-1 strain rate range, using the split Hopkinson pressure bar technique. It was found that the dynamic properties at strain-rates of 1×103–3×103 s-1 depend on a build direction and affected by heat treatment. At higher and lower strain-rates the effect of build direction is limited. The anisotropic nature of the material was determined by the ellipticity of samples after the SHPB test. No strain rate sensitivity was observed.

Versus Strain

The Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) is used to investigate the dynamic compressive mechanical behavior of a new foamed ceramic composite under impact loading. The stress versus strain curves are obtained under high strain rates. The test results are considered to be able to assure conformability of the tests, validate the stress equilibrium assumption, and show that the stress versus strain curves of foamed ceramic composite display strain hardening effect and damage softening effect as brittle materials. Meanwhile the curve includes short plateau region while no densification region.

This paper describes a modification of the split Hopkinson pressure bar, to allow compression testing of high strength metals at a strain rate of up to about 10 5 s –1 . All dimensions are minimized to reduce effects of dispersion and inertia, with specimens of the order of 1 mm diameter. Strain is calculated from the stress record and calibrated with high-speed photography. Particular attention has been paid to the accuracy of the technique, and errors arising from nonlinearity in the instrumentation, dispersion, frictional restraint and inertia have all been quantitatively assessed. Stress–strain results are presented of Ti 6A14V alloy, a high strength tungsten alloy, and pure copper.

Dynamic compressive stress-strain curves at various strain rates of an Ethylene-Propylene-Diene Monomer Copolymer (EPDM) rubber have been determined with a modified split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB). The use of a pulse-shaping technique ensures that the specimen deforms at a nearly constant strain rate under dynamically equilibrated stress. The validity of the experiments was monitored by a high-speed digital camera for specimen edge deformation, and by piezoelectric force transducers for dynamic stress equilibrium. The resulting dynamic stress-strain curves for the EPDM indicate that the material is sensitive to strain rates and that the strain-rate sensitivity depends on the value of strain. Based on a strain energy function theory, a one-dimensional dynamic constitutive equation for this rubber was modified to describe the high strain-rate experimental results within the ranges of strain and strain rates presented in this paper.

The strain rate sensitivity of neoprene is characterized using a modified split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) system at intermediate (50 s-1, 100 s-1) and high (500 s-1, 1000 s-1) strain rates. We used two quartz piezoelectric force transducers that were sandwiched between the specimen and experimental bars respectively to directly measure the weak wave signals. A laser gap gage was employed to monitor the deformation of the sample directly. Three kinds of neoprene rubbers (Shore hardness: SHA60, SHA65, and SHA70) were tested using the modified split Hopkinson pressure bar. Experimental results show that the modified apparatus is effective and reliable for determining the compressive stress-strain responses of neoprene at intermediate and high strain rates.

Dynamic Loading Conditions

The compressive deformation behavior of open-cell aluminum foams with different densities and morphologies was assessed under quasi-static and dynamic loading conditions. High strain rate experiments were conducted using a split Hopkinson pressure bar technique at strain rates ranging from 500 to 1 2000 − s . The experimental results shown that the compressive stress-strain curves of aluminum foams also have the “ three regions” character appeared in general foam materials, namely elastic region, collapse region and densification regions. It is found that density is the primary variable characterizing the modulus and yield strength of foams and the cell appears to have a negligible effect on the strength of foams. It also is found that yield strength and energy absorption is almost insensitive to strain rate and deformation is spatially uniform for the open-celled aluminum foams, over a wide range of strain rates.

Compressive stress-strain characteristics of carbon/epoxy laminated composites in the through-thickness direction at strain rates of over 1000/s were evaluated using the standard split Hopkinson pressure bar. Three carbon/epoxy laminated composites (i.e., unidirectional, cross-ply and woven) with almost the same thickness were tested at room temperature. Small solid cylindrical specimens were machined such that the direction of the compression loading was perpendicular to the fiber direction of the laminates. The effects of strain rate and reinforcement geometry on the secant modulus at 1% strain, ultimate compressive strength and strain, and total strain energy to failure were examined in detail.

In this paper, dynamic properties of EMC were studied at different temperatures and different strain rates. Firstly EMC was investigated by quasi-static tests. Secondly a series of dynamic compressive experiments of EMC were conducted using the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) at sectional height of strain rates. Thirdly EMC constants in ZWT model were determined from experiments. Corresponding measurements were conducted at temperatures ranging from 20°C to 160°C. The results indicate that the yield strength and flow stress of EMC increase remarkably with the increase of strain rate and it is shows that the assembled curve is fit good accordance with actual the experimental curve. However, the yield strength of EMC is a little change with the increase of temperature which is ranging from 20°C to 160°C.
