Seven aluminas of varying grain size, glass content and porosity were tested in plate-impact experiments over a range of impact stresses. Longitudinal stresses were measured using manganin gauges bonded between 8 mm thick tiles and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) backing blocks. Wave profiles were recorded by a 1 GS s –1 storage oscilloscope. Measurements were made of the Hugoniot elastic limit (HEL), rise time of the ‘plastic’ wave and of spall strength for each material. The spall strength was measured at impact velocities corresponding to less than 0.4 HEL stress for each material. The HEL was observed to decrease with increasing grain size while the ‘plastic’ wave rise time increased with increasing grain size. The spall strength increases with a decrease in porosity and an increase in alumina content. Variation in the spall strength was observed to occur over a range of stresses below half the elastic limit of the material.

AbstractAluminum-oxide ceramic samples have been prepared by additive manufacturing with subsequent sintering. The Hugoniot elastic limit and spall strength of the ceramics are determined by analyzing the full wave profiles of the samples recorded using a laser interferometer upon their shock compression with amplitudes of 6.8 and 13.8 GPa.

In support of improved personal armour development, depth of penetration tests have been conducted on four different ceramic materials including alumina, modified alumina, silicon carbide and boron carbide. These experiments consisted of impacting ceramic tiles bonded to aluminum cylinders with 0.50 caliber armour piercing projectiles. The results are presented in terms of ballistic efficiency, and the validity of using ballistic efficiency as a measure of ceramic performance was examined. In addition, the correlation between ballistic performance and ceramic material properties, such as elastic modulus, hardness, spall strength and Hugoniot Elastic Limit, has been considered.

This paper presents the results of measurements of the spall strength and elastic-plastic proper-ties, under dynamic and static loads, of the high-strength heat-resistant nickel-chromium alloy Inconel 625, obtained by the direct laser deposition method. The structural parameters of the obtained samples and the mechanical properties during static tests were studied. According to our information, anisotropy in the structural parameters operates primarily at the level of plastic deformation of alloys. Shock compression of the additive alloy Inconel 625 samples in the range of 6–18 GPa was carried out using a light-gas gun, both along and perpendicular to the direction of the deposition. The strength characteristics were determined from the analysis of the shock wave profiles, which were recorded using the VISAR laser velocimeter during the loading of samples. It was found that the value of the spall strength of additive samples does not depend on the direction of deposition, and the Hugoniot elastic limit of samples loaded perpendicular to the deposition direction is about ~10% higher. With an increase in the maximum compression stress, the material’s spall strength increases slightly, but for both types of samples, a slight decrease in the Hugoniot elastic limit was observed as the compression stresses increase. On the basis of the measured wave profiles, shock Hugoniots of the samples of the alloy Inconel 625, loaded both along and perpendicular to the direction of deposition, are constructed in this pressure range.

The Hugoniot elastic limit and spall strength of reactor steel 09G2SA-A under shock compression were measured by recording and subsequent analysis of the wave profiles. The temperature-rate dependences of the resistance to high-strain rate and fracture of steel at normal and elevated temperatures are determined. The results of measurements of the strength characteristics of steel under spall are supplemented by a metallographic analysis of the fracture zone and compared with data for 15Kh2NMFA reactor steel and Armco iron.

The use of additive manufacturing (AM) by Electron Beam Melting (EBM) or Selective Laser Melting (SLM) has extensively grown in the past few years. A major goal in AM is to manufacture materials with mechanical properties at least as good as traditionally manufactured materials. In this work we present the results of planar impact tests and Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar tests (SHPB) on Ti-6Al-4V manufactured by EBM and LSM techniques. Stress strain curves based on SHPB measurements at strain rate of about 1500 s-1 display similar plastic flow stresses for SLM and EBM processed Ti-6Al-4V alloys, and about 15% higher than reported for commercial Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Results of planar impact tests on SLM samples display slightly higher spall strength than EBM while the stress at Hugoniot elastic limit (HEL) is practically the same. Hugoniot elastic limit and spall strength estimates for EBM-and SLM-processed Ti-6Al-4V alloys are at least as high as values obtained for conventionally-processed alloys. The results of post mortem SEM analysis of the spall fracture have demonstrated significant differences in the spall fracture characteristics between the AM-processed and commercial Ti-6Al-4V alloys.

Results are presented on the shock response of a zirconium-based bulk metallic glass (BMG), Zr41.25Ti13.75Ni10Cu12.5Be22.5, subjected to planar impact loading. An 82.5-mm bore single-stage gas-gun facility at Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH, was used to conduct the shock experiments. The particle velocity profiles, measured at the back (free) surface of the target plate by using the velocity interferometer system for any reflector (VISAR), were analyzed to (i) better understand the structure of shock waves in BMG subjected to planar shock compression, (ii) estimate residual spall strength of the BMG after different levels of shock compression, and (iii) obtain the Hugoniot elastic limit (HEL) of the material. The spall strength was found to decrease moderately with increasing levels of the applied normal impact stress. The spall strength at a shock-induced stress of 4.4 GPa was 3.5 GPa while the spall strengths at shock-induced stresses of 5.1, 6.0, and 7.0 GPa were 2.72, 2.35, and 2.33 GPa, respectively. The HEL was estimated to be 6.15 GPa.

AbstractTwo series of shock-wave experiments have been conducted in order to measure the Hugoniot elastic limit and determine the strain rate dependence of critical fracture stress for tantalum experiencing spall fracture. Tantalum specimens have been preannealed in vacuum at 1000°C. The evolution of elastoplastic compression shock waves at room and elevated up to 500°C temperatures has been presented from complete wave profiles recorded by a VISAR laser Doppler velocimeter. The spall strength dependence on the strain rate during the expansion of the material in a rarefaction wave has been determined.
