Compared with traditional jets, energetic jets have more efficient damage effects. To study the reaction characteristics of polytetrafluoroethylene- (PTFE-) based energetic jets under impact loading, the static mechanical properties of Al/PTFE/W composite energetic materials are studied by using a universal testing machine at a strain rate of 0.01 s−1, and the dynamic mechanical properties are tested on a slip Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) system at a strain rate of 1000∼5500 s−1. A dynamic energy acquisition system is established to quantify the energy generated by the response of the Al/PTFE/W energetic jets to impact targets. The effects of the material proportion and impact energy on the mechanical and energy release properties of the Al/PTFE/W energetic jets are analyzed. The results show that the Al/PTFE/W composite has an obvious strain rate effect. As the W content in the composite increases, the yield strength and compressive strength of the material increase gradually, but the strain at break decreases. When the W content is 45%, the peak pressure, total release energy, pressure platform duration, and total pressure duration of the Al/PTFE/W energetic jets are the highest. As the impact energy increases, the pressure peak and energy release values of the energetic jets increase. At an impact energy threshold of 106.1 MJ/m2, the chemical reaction of the Al/PTFE/W (45%) energetic jets is saturated. The results provide a theoretical and experimental basis for the application of energetic jets.

Strain rate sensitivity has been widely recognized as a significant feature of the dynamic mechanical properties of lithium-ion cells, which are important for their accurate representation in automotive crash simulations. This research sought to improve the precision with which dynamic mechanical properties can be determined from drop tower impact testing through the use of a diaphragm to minimize transient shock loads and to constrain off-axis motion of the indenter, specialized impact absorbers to reduce noise, and observation of displacement with a high speed camera. Inert pouch cells showed strain rate sensitivity in an increased stiffness during impact tests that was consistent with the poromechanical interaction of the porous structure of the jellyroll with the liquid electrolyte. The impact behaviour of the inert pouch cells was similar to that of an Expanded Polypropylene foam (EPP), with the exception that the inert pouch cells did not show hysteretic recovery under the weight of the indenter. This suggests that the dynamic mechanical behaviour of the inert pouch cells is analogous to a highly damped foam.

The energy released by the active metal phase in fine-grained Fe/Al energetic materials enables the replacement of conventional materials in new types of weapons. This paper describes an experiment designed to study the energy-release characteristics of fine-grained Fe/Al energetic jets under impact loading. By means of dynamic mechanical properties analysis, the physical and chemical properties of Fe/Al energetic materials with specific content are studied, and the preparation process is determined. The energy-release properties of fine-grained Fe/Al jets subject to different impact conditions are studied based on experimental data, and energy-release differences are discussed. The results show that for fine-grained Fe/Al energetic materials to remain active and exhibit high strength, the highest sintering temperature is 550 °C. With increasing impact energy, the energy release of fine-grained Fe/Al energetic jets increases. At an impact-energy threshold of 121.1 J/mm2, the chemical reaction of the fine-grained Fe/Al energetic jets is saturated. The experimental data and microscopic analysis show that when the impact energy reaches the threshold, the energy efficiency ratio of Fe/Al energetic jets can reach 95.3%.

The purpose of this study is to elucidate the effect of foam structure on the impact compressive properties of foamed polyethylene film. Three types of foamed PE film were prepared, which have different foam structure: base type, spheral type and dense type. A quasi-static test was performed using a universal testing machine at the strain rate of 10-3~10-1s-1. Impact tests were carried out using a drop-weight testing machine at the strain rate of 101~102s-1 and using a split Hopkinson pressure bar method at the strain rate of approximately 103s-1. It was confirmed that the foamed PE film shows an increase of the flow stress with increasing of the strain rate, regardless of the specimen type. In the spheral type specimen, the elastic response is observed immediately after compression because the cell shape of this specimen has high bending resistance in comparison with the other two specimens. In addition, it is confirmed that the relative density and cell size affects the flow stress in the foamed PE film.

Silica Nanocomposites

Filler-related characteristic such as particle size, shape and geometry are essential factors that need to be considered during the evaluation of the material’s performance especially in the area of particle filled composites. However, there is limited number of works are reported on this particular issue under high strain rate condition. Based on this concern, the paper presents an experimental results on the effect of particle sizes towards rate sensitivity and dynamic compressive properties of polypropylene/silica nanocomposites across strain rate from 10-2to 10-3s-1. The composite specimens were tested using universal testing machine for static loading and a compression split Hopkinson pressure bar apparatus for dynamic loading. Results show that, the stiffness and strength properties of polypropylene/silica nanocomposites were affected by the size of silica particles. However, the magnitudes of changed are somehow different between micro and nanosizes. On the other hand, particle size also plays a major contribution towards sensitivity of the polypropylene/silica nanocomposites where the smaller the reinforcement sizes, the less sensitive would be the composites. Overall, it is convenience to say that the particle size gives significant contribution towards rate sensitivity and dynamic mechanical properties of polypropylene/silica nanocomposites.

The impact compressive failure behaviour of a unidirectional T700/2521 carbon/epoxy composite in three principal material directions is investigated in the conventional split Hopkinson pressure bar. Two different types of specimens with square cross sections are machined from the composite in the plane of the laminate. The uniaxial compressive stress-strain curves up to failure at quasi-static and intermediate strain rates are measured on an Instron testing machine. It is demonstrated that the ultimate compressive strength (or maximum stress) increases slightly, while the ultimate compressive strain (or failure strain) decreases marginally with strain rate in the range of 10-3 to 103/s in all three directions. Dominant failure mechanisms are found to significantly vary with strain rate and loading directions along three principal material axes.

Effect of strain rate on mechanical properties of pure iron was studied by compression experiments using Gleebe-1500D thermal simulation testing machine and Split-Hopkinson Pressure Bar, indicating that pure iron only has strain rate hardening effect. Adiabatic temperature rise tends to increase with increasing the strain rate. Work hardening effect is also analyzed. It found that there are only two work hardening regions in static stage (10-3 to 1 s-1) while there are three work hardening regions in dynamic stage (650 to 8500 s-1). It is on account of onset of twining at high strain rates.

Reactive metals (RMs) are a new class of material that can withstand mechanical loads and chemically react to release large amounts of heat under strong impact loading. They are gradually becoming widely used in defense and military fields, including for high-efficiency warheads and reactive armor. For the numerical simulation method considering the combined mechanical-thermo-chemical process for the impact energy release behavior of the RMs, the Al/Ni-based RMs were investigated in this work by combining experiments, theoretical calculations and a numerical simulation. Three kinds of Al/Ni-based RMs (Al-Ni, Al-Ni-CuO and Al-Ni-MoO3), were prepared using the hot-pressing forming process. Firstly, the compressive behavior and the parameters of the Johnson-Cook constitutive model were obtained using a mechanical testing machine and split Hopkinson pressure bars (SHPB). Secondly, the parameters of the equation of state (EOS) under the medium and low pressure conditions of the Al/Ni-based RMs, which were was seen as porous mixtures with high theoretical material density percentages (TMD%), were calculated based on the cold-energy superposition theory and the Wu-Jing method. Third, the impact energy release behaviors of the three RMs were studied with direct ballistic tests. The shock temperatures at different impact velocities were calculated based on the existing shock-induced chemical reaction thermo-chemical model while considering the chemical reaction efficiency, the relationship between the shock temperature and the extent of the chemical reaction was established, and the parameters of the relevant chemical kinetic equations were fitted. Finally, the user’s subroutines defining the material model were implemented to update the stresses in the solids elements in LS-DYNA. The model was based on the Johnson-Cook constitutive model with consideration of the mechanical-thermo-chemical coupling effect, which was verified by the experimental results. The results show that the constitutive model developed in this work can describe the impact energy release behavior of the Al/Ni-based RMs.

The dynamic mechanical properties of oxygen free copper has been tested under the different strain rate (4700s-1~21000s-1) at the room temperature by split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB), the true stress-true strain curves has been obtained. Power-Law constitutive model and Johnson-Cook constitutive model have been built to fit the experimental result from SHPB test of oxygen free copper, meanwhile, the constitutive model can be applied to the simulation analysis of cutting process. The results show that the oxygen free copper is sensitive to the strain rate. In addition, the Johnson-Cook constitutive model predicts the plastic flow stress of the oxygen free copper more accurately than the Power-Law constitutive model at the high strain rate.

The purpose of this paper was to determine the mechanical properties of a Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy produced by traditional CIP (Cold Isostatic Pressing) and by LENS (Laser Engineered Net Shaping), an additive manufacturing process. A reference material, being a commercial Ti-6Al-4V alloy, was also tested. The strength test specimens were produced from a high-quality, Grade 5 titanium powder. Each specimen had its density, porosity, and hardness determined. Compression curves were plotted for the tested materials from the strength test results with static and dynamic loads. These tests were performed on an UTS (Universal Testing Machine) and an SHPB (Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar) stand. The test results obtained led to the conclusion that the titanium alloy produced by CIP had lower strength performance parameters than its commercially-sourced counterpart. The LENS-produced specimens outperformed the commercially-sourced alloy both in static and dynamic load conditions.
