A series of tensile tests at constant strain rate were conducted on tin-lead based solders with different Sn content under wide ranges of temperatures and strain rates. It was shown that the stress-strain relationships had strong temperature- and strain rate- dependence. The parameters of Anand model for four solders were determined. The four solders were 60Sn-40Pb, 40Sn-60Pb, 10Sn-90Pb and 5Sn-95Pb. Anand constitutive model was employed to simulate the stress-strain behaviors of the solders for the temperature range from 313K to 398K and the strain rate range from 0.001%sP -1 P to 2%sP -1 P. The results showed that Anand model can adequately predict the rate- and temperature- related constitutive behaviors at all test temperatures and strain rates.

Uni-axial quasi-static tests at strain rates 10-5, 10-4, 10-3,10-2 and 10-1 s-1 and dynamic compressive tests at strain rates 1679, 2769,5000 and 8200 s-1 have been carried out to study the mechanical behavior for polycarbonate used in the avigation industry. The stress–strain curves of polycarbonate in the strain-rate range from 10-5 to 8200 s-1 have been obtained. The effects of the strain rate on yield phenomenon and rate-dependent mechanical behavior are discussed. A plastic flow law based on the DSGZ rate-temperature-dependent constitutive model was used to describe the mechanical behavior of polycarbonate in the strain-rate range from 10-5 to 103 s-1. The results at the six strain rates are in excellent agreement with the experimental data, which illustrates that the constitutive model can describe the mechanical behavior for polycarbonate at low and high strain rates perfectly.

A statistical constitutive model, which takes account the effect of strain rate, was presented to describe the stress-strain relationship of brittle fiber bundles. To verify its reliability, tensile tests on two kinds of brittle fibers: glass fiber and SiC fiber, were carried out at different strain rates, and the stress-strain curves were obtained. It was found that the modulus E, the strength and the fracture strain of these fiber bundles all increase with increasing strain rate. The simulated stress-strain curves, derived from the constitutive model, fit the tested results well, which indicates that the model is valid and reliable.

AbstractThe effects of physical ageing and prior immersion time on the ESC behaviour of polycarbonate in ethanol were studied. Constant strain rate tensile tests were performed at a range of strain rates for samples with ageing times varying from 100 hours to 3000 hours and for prior immersion times of between 1 hour and 500 hours. Comparison of tests performed in ethanol and in air gave a good indication of the point of craze initiation. The results showed that there was a reduction in strain to crazing as the strain rate decreased, apart from with the lowest strain rate used. A longer prior immersion time also promoted craze formation. Both of these results are attributable to diffusion effects. Physical ageing had little effect on the ESC behaviour, due to the large amounts of deformation encountered in this system.

Abstract Cast iron alloys with low production cost and quite good mechanical properties are widely used in the automotive industry. To study the mechanical behavior of a typical ductile cast iron (GJS-450) with nodular graphite, uni-axial quasi-static and dynamic tensile tests at strain rates of 10− 4, 1, 10, 100, and 250 s− 1 were carried out. In order to investigate the effects of stress state, specimens with various geometries were used in the experiments. Stress–strain curves and fracture strains of the GJS-450 alloy in the strain-rate range of 10− 4 to 250 s− 1 were obtained. A strain rate-dependent plastic flow law based on the Voce model is proposed to describe the mechanical behavior in the corresponding strain-rate range. The deformation behavior at various strain rates is observed and analyzed through simulations with the proposed strain rate-dependent constitutive model. The available damage model from Bai and Wierzbicki is extended to take the strain rate into account and calibrated based on the analysis of local fracture strains. The validity of the proposed constitutive model including the damage model was verified by the corresponding experimental results. The results show that the strain rate has obviously nonlinear effects on the yield stress and fracture strain of GJS-450 alloys. The predictions with the proposed constitutive model and damage models at various strain rates agree well with the experimental results, which illustrates that the rate-dependent flow rule and damage models can be used to describe the mechanical behavior of cast iron alloys at elevated strain rates.

Abstract In conducting tension and compression tests on snow samples, strains and strain-rates are usually determined from the displacements of the ends of the samples. In this work, a strain-gage which mounts directly onto the snow sample during testing, was developed and was found to give accurate and direct measurements of strain and strain-rates. A commercially available 0-28 pF variable capacitor was modified to perform the required strain measurements. It is a polished metallic plunger sliding inside a metal-coated glass tube. The plunger and tube were each soldered to the end of a spring-steel wire arm. To the other end of these arms were soldered to 10 mm square pads made of thin brass shim stock. The whole device weighs 2.5 g and the low coefficient of friction in the capacitor resulted in a very low actuation force. To mount the strain gage, the pads are wetted and frozen onto the snow sample. A high degree of sensitivity was achieved through the use of “phase-lock-loop” electronic circuitry. The capacitance change caused by the strain in the sample, changes the frequency of output signal from an oscillator and thus causes the change in output from the system. In the locked state, to which the system is constantly driven by a feed-back loop, the system output is almost ripple free. The strain gages were calibrated in the field in order to take into account the effects of very low field temperatures. The calibration curves were almost linear over the travel of 15 mm, the maximum limit. The sensitivity of the system is 4 mV per strain unit, but this could be increased by an order of magnitude by minor adjustments in the circuit. Constant strain-rate tensile tests were performed on natural snow at Berthoud Pass, Colorado, U.S.A., in the density range of 140-290 kg m-3. Four strain gages were mounted onto the samples to sense any non-uniform deformation which otherwise would have gone unnoticed or caused scatter in the data. The average indication of these gages was used to construct stress—strain curves for various types of snow at different strain-rates. The effect of strain-rate on the behavior of snow was studied. “Ratcheting” in the stress-strain curve in the region where the snow becomes plastic was observed first by Kinosita in his compression tests. A similar phenomenon was observed in these tension tests. It was found that directly measured strain is quite different from that which would be calculated from sample end movement. Strain softening was not observed in these tests up to total strains of 8%. The strain-rate effects found were comparable to the results of other investigators.

This paper presents the evaluation of the stress-strain behavior, as a function of strain-rate, for three tin-lead solders at room temperature. This behavior is critically needed for reliability analysis of printed circuit boards (PCB) since handbooks list minimal mechanical properties for the eutectic solder used in PCBs. Furthermore, most handbook data are for stable eutectic microstructure whereas PCB solder has a metastable microstructure. All three materials were purchased as “eutectics.” However, chemical analysis, volume fraction determination, and microhardness tests show some major variations between the three materials. Two of the materials have a eutectic composition, and one does not. The true stress-strain equations of one eutectic and the one noneutectic material are determined from compressive tests at engineering strain-rates between 0.0002/s and 0.2/s. The second eutectic material is evaluated using tensile tests with strain-rates between 0.00017/s and 0.042/s. The materials appear to exhibit linear elastic behavior only at extremely small strains, i.e., less than 0.0005. However, this “elastic” behavior showed considerable variation, and depended upon the strain rate. In both tension and compression the eutectic alloy exhibits nonlinear plastic behavior, i.e., strain-softening followed by strain-hardening, which depends upon the strain rate. A quadratic equation σy = σy(ε˚/ε˚0) + A(ε˚/ε˚0)ε + B(ε˚/ε˚0)ε2 fit to the data gives correlation coefficients R2 > 0.91. The coefficients σy(ε˚/ε˚0), A(ε˚/ε˚0), B(ε˚/ε˚0) are fitted functions of the normalized engineering strain rate ε˚/ε˚0. Replicated experiments are used at each strain-rate so that a measure of the statistical variation could be estimated. Measures of error associated with the regression analysis are also obtained so that an estimate of the total error in the stress-strain relations can be made.

Increasing the strain rate at superplastic forming is a challenging technical and economic task of aluminum forming manufacturing. New aluminum sheets exhibiting high strain rate superplasticity at strain rates above 0.01 s−1 are required. This study describes the microstructure and the superplasticity properties of a new high-strength Al-Zn-Mg-based alloy processed by a simple thermomechanical treatment including hot and cold rolling. The new alloy contains Ni to form Al3Ni coarse particles and minor additions of Zr (0.19 wt.%) and Sc (0.06 wt.%) to form nanoprecipitates of the L12-Al3 (Sc,Zr) phase. The design of chemical and phase compositions of the alloy provides superplasticity with an elongation of 600–800% in a strain rate range of 0.01 to 0.6/s and residual cavitation less than 2%. A mean elongation-to-failure of 400% is observed at an extremely high constant strain rate of 1 s−1. The strain-induced evolution of the grain and dislocation structures as well as the L12 precipitates at superplastic deformation is studied. The dynamic recrystallization at superplastic deformation is confirmed. The superplastic flow behavior of the proposed alloy is modeled via a mathematical Arrhenius-type constitutive model and an artificial neural network model. Both models exhibit good predictability at low and high strain rates of superplastic deformation.

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.

The strain rate effect on the mechanical behavior of amorphous alloys has aroused general interest. Most studies in this area have focused on quasi-static and high strain-rate compressive deformations. However, experimental results have been few, or even non-existent, under a moderate strain-rate loading. This article extends the traditional split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) technique to characterize compressive deformation of an amorphous alloy at medium strain rates. The compressive behavior of Zr65.25Cu21.75Al8Ni4Nb1 amorphous alloy shows a negative strain rate effect on the yield strength with a quasi-static, moderate to high strain-rate range, and the fracture angle increases from 44° at 10−5 s−1 to 60° at 4000 s−1 as strain rate increases. Herein, we introduce a modified cooperative shear model to describe the compressive behavior of the current amorphous alloy under a broad strain rate range. The model predicts that the normalized yield strength will linearly descend with logarithmic strain rate when the strain rate is less than a critical strain rate, however, which rapidly decreases linearly with the square of the strain rate at high strain rates. The predicted data of the model are highly consistent with the current experimental results. These findings provide support for future engineering applications of amorphous alloys.

Abstract A study was made previously of the temperature and strain rate dependence of the stress at break (tensile strength) and the ultimate elongation of an unfilled SBR rubber. In that study, stress-strain curves to the point of rupture were measured with an Instron tensile tester on ring type specimens at 14 temperatures between −67.8° and 93.3° C, and at 11 strain rates between 0.158×10−3 and 0.158 sec−1 at most temperatures. The tensile strength was found to increase with both increasing strain rate and decreasing temperature. At all temperatures above −34.4° C, the ultimate elongation was likewise found to increase with increasing strain rate and decreasing temperature but at lower temperatures the opposite dependence on rate was observed; at −34.4° C, the ultimate elongation passed through a maximum with increasing rate.
