Ti-6Al-4V plates in thickness of 8 mm were directly hot rolled and then heat treated in various routes by a single electron beam cold hearth melted (EBCHM) ingot, in which the weight percentage of recycled titanium scraps was at least about 50 wt%. The dynamic stress-strain behaviors of the plates with typical microstructures were investigated by Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar system at the strain rates of 2000 s-1~ 3000 s-1. The results show that the dynamic compression properties of EBCHM-ingot Ti-6Al-4V plates are relative to that of commercial VAR-ingot plates. The dynamic properties in normal direction of the plates are not sensitive to variations in the fraction of primary alpha phase.

This paper aimed to study the dynamic compression properties of Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy sections. The Ti-6Al-4V sections were extruded above the β-transus temperature with extruding ratio of 85, and then heat treated by conventional annealing at 750°C, or annealing at 1200°C by two routes. Dynamic compression properties were investigated by Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar system at strain rate of 3000±200 s-1. The results show that the dynamic compression properties of as-extruded specimens are comparable to the specimens after conventional annealing at 750°C. Compared to Widmannstatten microstructure with original beta grains in size of 200 μm ~ 300 μm obtained by conventional annealing, the microstructure obtained by annealing at 1200°C with coarse grains consisted of fine α-lamellae exhibits comparable dynamic strength but the capability of plastic deformation reduced about 20%. For the microstructure obtained by annealing at 1200°C with coarse grains consisted of coarse α-lamellae, the dynamic strength slightly decreased, while the capability of plastic deformation reduced about 60%.

Ti-6Al-4V ingot with rectangle cross-section was directly manufactured by a single electron beam cold hearth melting (EBCHM) process, in which 65 wt.% recycled titanium scraps was used. The dynamic stress-strain behavior of the low-cost Ti-6Al-4V plates after heat treatment was investigated by Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar system at the strain rates of 2000 s-1~ 3000 s-1. The results showed that the plates with homogeneous microstructure could be obtained after two-heats hot rolled. The dynamic compression properties of low-cost Ti-6Al-4V plates in three different thicknesses were in the same level, which is comparable with that of commercial Ti-6Al-4V plates.

This paper aimed to study the quasi-static and dynamic properties of a titanium alloy plate with nominal composition Ti-3.5Al-2.5V-1.5Fe-0.25O (ATI 425TM titanium alloy with lower limit of Al element) in thickness of 8 mm. The quasi-static tensile properties were investigated by MTSTM testing system at strain rate of 10-3 s-1, while dynamic compression properties by Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar system at strain rate of 3000±200 s-1. The results show that the quasi-static prperties of the Ti-3.5Al-2.5V-1.5Fe-0.25O plate are comparable to the commercial Ti-6Al-4V plate in 8mm-thick. The Ti-3.5Al-2.5V-1.5Fe-0.25O plate exhibats good dynamic strength. The average dynamic flow stress is 100MPa higher than that of Ti-6Al-4V plate. However, the maximum strain during homogeneous plastic deformation of Ti-3.5Al-2.5V-1.5Fe-0.25O plate is only 50~60% of that of Ti-6Al-4V plate.

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.

This study derived the five parameters in Johnson-Cook equation of CP titanium Gr2. Quasi-static and dynamic compression tests were designed to measure mechanical properties at strain rates of 10-3s-1 and 6000s-1. In order to secure the validity of tested data, a novel fixture was proposed to reduce the displacement measurement error in MTS testing system and the signal processing procedure of compressive split Hopkinson pressure bar for the present study was demonstrated. With the tested data and calculated adiabatic heating temperature rise, parameters A, B, n, m, C have been derived based on mathematical deduction and solve. It was found that the constructed constitutive model fit the tested data well and was able to restore the yield strength value at high strain rate.

Recently, engineering blasting is widely applied in projects such as rock mineral mining, construction of underground cavities and field-leveling excavation. Dynamic mechanical performance of rocks has been gradually attached importance both in China and abroad. Concrete and rock are two kinds of the most frequently used engineering materials and also frequently used as experimental objects currently. To compare dynamic mechanical performance of these two materials, this study performed dynamic compression test with five different strain rates on concrete and rock using Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) to obtain basic dynamic mechanical parameters of them and then summarized the relationship of dynamic compressive strength, peak strain and strain rate of two materials. Moreover, specific energy absorption is introduced to confirm dynamic damage mechanisms of concrete and rock materials. This work can not only help to improve working efficiency to the largest extent but also ensure the smooth development of engineering, providing rich theoretical guidance for development of related engineering in the future.

This work evaluates the mechanical and dynamic behavior of recycled polycarbonate (rPC) from industrial waste. This study aims to verify whether the recycled process adopted for polycarbonate promotes both mechanical and dynamic properties values under compressive stress, similar to those found for virgin polycarbonate. The mechanical recycling of the rPC was carried out using the thermoforming technique in a thermal press. Two tests were carried out to evaluate the dynamic response of rPC. The quasi-static compression test was performed on a universal machine. The dynamic in a split Hopkinson pressure bar was performed with three different strain rates. The results showed that the mechanical and primary recycling adopted in this work promoted values of yield stress in compression (77 MPa) and dynamic (up to 118 MPa), close to or superior to those reported so far in the literature.

A high reinforcement content TiB2/2024Al composite with an average particle size of 8μm was fabricated by squeeze casting technology. The dynamic compression behaviors of the composite under varied strain rates were measured using split Hopkinson pressure bar, and its microstructure and fracture characteristic were examined. Resluts revealed that the composite was dense and homogenerous, and the TiB2-Al interface was clean without interfacial reactants. At high strain rate, the TiB2/Al composite showed insensitive to the strain rate, and both the flow stress and the elastic modulus improved little with an increase of the strain rate. The composite failed macroscopically in shear fracture and in split, which were caused by cracking of large reinforcement particles and interface failures under dynamic load.
