Metal/fluoropolymer materials are typical reactive materials. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)/Al/CuO reactive materials were studied in this research. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), quasi-static compression, the Split Hopkinson pressure bar test, and the drop hammer test were used to study the mechanical properties and induced reaction characteristics of the reactive materials with different Al/CuO thermite contents and different particle sizes. SEM images of the samples demonstrate that the reactive materials were mixed evenly. The compression test results show that, if the particle size of PTFE was too small, the strength of reactive materials after sintering was reduced. After sintering, with the increase in the content of Al/CuO thermite, the strength of the micro-sized PTFE/Al/CuO firstly increased and then decreased. The Johnson–Cook constitutive model can be used to characterize the reactive materials, and the parameters of the Johnson–Cook constitutive model of No. 3 reactive materials (PTFE/Al:Al/CuO = 3:1) were obtained. The reliability of the parameters was verified by numerical simulation. Drop hammer tests show that the addition of Al/CuO aluminothermic materials or the use of nano-sized PTFE/Al reactive materials can significantly improve the sensitivity of the material. The research in this paper can provide a reference for the preparation, transportation, storage, and application of reactive materials.

The temperature and strain rate significantly affect the ballistic performance of UHMWPE, but the deformation of UHMWPE under thermo-mechanical coupling has been rarely studied. To investigate the influences of the temperature and the strain rate on the mechanical properties of UHMWPE, a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) apparatus was used to conduct uniaxial compression experiments on UHMWPE. The stress–strain curves of UHMWPE were obtained at temperatures of 20–100 °C and strain rates of 1300–4300 s−1. Based on the experimental results, the UHMWPE belongs to viscoelastic–plastic material, and a hardening effect occurs once UHMWPE enters the plastic zone. By comparing the stress–strain curves at different temperatures and strain rates, it was found that UHMWPE exhibits strain rate strengthening and temperature softening effects. By modifying the Sherwood–Frost model, a constitutive model was established to describe the dynamic mechanical properties of UHMWPE at different temperatures. The results calculated using the constitutive model were in good agreement with the experimental data. This study provides a reference for the design of UHMWPE as a ballistic-resistant material.

There is a significant challenge in simulating the behaviour of PBXs under high strain rate impact loading. A Porter-Gould physically based constitutive model has been developed for the DPX2 explosive. A series of quasi-static compression and tensile tests over a range of temperatures were performed together with DMA tests to calibrate the model. In particular tests were performed for different L/D ratios to understand the complex localisation and damage behaviour of the material. High rate tests on the compression Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) for a range of temperatures were then used for validation of the model under idealised stress states. Some model development is still required, particularly at lower temperatures near the glass transition temperature. In addition a series of classical Taylor Tests were used to validate the model under impact loading conditions at room temperature. The DYNA3D simulations gave very good results compared to the experiments for these impact conditions.

In this study, the effects of strain rate and temperature on the flow stress of Inconel718 were analyzed by Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) experiment and quasi-static compression experiment. The classical JC constitutive model was established by combining the quasi-static compression experiment with the SHPB experiment. According to the effects of different grain sizes and [Formula: see text] phase on dislocation pile-up, the dislocation pile-up theory was introduced to modify the JC constitutive model. The modified constitutive model was compiled in FORTRAN language, and VUMAT user material subroutine was called and secondary development was carried out to establish the polycrystalline simulation model with different grain sizes. The uniaxial tensile and compression simulation process of polycrystal with different grain sizes was performed. Through comparing the simulation results with the experimental data. The correlation coefficient R, between the simulation and experimental values, is 0.97,981, and the average relative error is only 3.72%. The accuracy of the modified constitutive model was verified.

The dynamic mechanical properties of concrete materials are important parameters for evaluating the safety performance of concrete structures under dynamic loads. Fiber cement-based materials have been widely used in the construction projects due to their strength, toughening, and cracking resistance. In this study, we conducted experimental and theoretical studies on dynamic compression and tensile mechanical properties of different proportions of new-type fiber concrete. A Split-Hopkinson pressure bar equipment was used to determine the concrete behavior at different strain rates. The effects of strain rate and fiber content on the strength of the specimen, dynamic increase factor, and ultimate strain were analyzed. Based on the macrodamage factor, the traditional nonlinear viscoelastic constitutive model was simplified and improved. The four-parameter constitutive model was obtained, and the influence of these parameters on the performance of fiber concrete was analyzed. The experimental results were compared with those predicted from the available equations, and results were in accordance. Finally, an analytical equation for predicting the dynamic compression and tensile properties of these new-type fibers was proposed.

Quasi Static Compression

Al-PTFE (aluminum-polytetrafluoroethene) is regarded as one of the most promising reactive materials (RMs). In this work, Ni (Nickel) was added to Al-PTFE composites for the purpose of improving the energy density and damage effect. To investigate the thermal behavior, mechanical properties and reaction characteristics of the Al-Ni-PTFE composites, an Al-PTFE mixture and an Al-Ni mixture were prepared by ultrasonic mixing. Six types of Al-Ni-PTFE specimens with different component mass ratios were prepared by molding sintering. Simultaneous thermal analysis experiments were carried out to characterize the thermal behavior of the Al-PTFE mixture and the Al-Ni mixture. Quasi-static compression tests were performed to analyze the mechanical properties and reaction characteristics of the Al-Ni-PTFE specimens. The results indicate that the reaction onset temperature of Al-Ni (582.7 °C) was similar to that of Al-PTFE (587.6 °C) and that the reaction heat of Al-Ni (991.9 J/g) was 12.5 times higher than that of Al-PTFE (79.6 J/g). With the increase of Ni content, the material changed from ductile to brittle and the strain hardening modulus and compressive strength rose first and then subsequently decreased, reaching a maximum of 51.35 MPa and 111.41 MPa respectively when the volume fraction of Ni was 10%. An exothermic reaction occurred for the specimens with a Ni volume fraction no more than 10% under quasi-static compression, accompanied by the formation of Ni-Al intermetallic compounds. In the Al-Ni-PTFE system, the reaction between Al and PTFE preceded the reaction between Al and Ni and the feasibility of increasing the energy density and damage effect of the Al-Ni-PTFE reactive material by means of Ni-Al reaction was proved.

Indentation Response

In this study, a dynamic indentation test method based on the split Hopkinson pressure bar is proposed to obtain the dynamic parameters of Ludwik power law constitutive, namely, Young’s modulus E, strength coefficient K, and strain hardening index n by analyzing dynamic indentation load-indentation depth curve obtained from the theories relating to the Hopkinson pressure bar. The important parameters, namely, loading curvature C and transformation factor [Formula: see text], are invoked to examine the dynamic indentation response results in a wide range of target material parameters. Finite element calculation results are processed through simulation of dynamic indentation response with broad material parameters. Furthermore, the analytical method is used to fit simulation results to obtain the analytical equations for elastic–plastic parameters and curvature parameters for the subsequent analysis. The analytical equation of forward model to predict dynamic indentation response parameter–loading curvature C of a known material is proposed. Then, the elastic–plastic parameters of unknown materials (according to Ludwik power law) are obtained by substituting the dynamic indentation response parameters into an inverse analytical equation under the two types of half-cone angle indenters. The method is verified by other typical materials, which shows that the dynamic indentation test based on the split Hopkinson pressure bar can obtain sufficient conditions to obtain dynamic mechanical properties of target materials.
