High-strain-rate superplasticity and low-temperature superplasticity are favorable for making the use of superplastic forming for engineering ceramics even more wide spread. In this study, a silicon nitride based nanocomposite was developed for the purpose of improving the superplasticity. An amorphous powder was prepared by mechanical alloying of silicon nitride and metal titanium. A Si3N4-Si2N2O-TiN nanocomposite was fabricated by hot isostatically pressing the amorphous powder compact. A compression test was performed in the temperature range of 1573 K to 1873 K. The nanocomposite could be deformed at a strain rate of 10-2s-1, which was more than 100 times faster than that available for conventional superplastic Si3N4 at 1873 K. Furthermore, the nanocomposite was superplastically deformed in compression at low temperatures from 1573 K to 1673 K. The stress exponent and the activation energy of the nanocomposite were close to those of submicron-silicon nitride.

Strain Rates

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 mechanical responses of Ti-5Al-2.5Sn alloy at low temperatures were investigated under quasi-static and dynamic tensile loads using MTS system and SHTB system, respectively. Tensile stress-strain curves were obtained over the temperature range of 153 to 298K and the rate range of 0.001 to 1050 s-1. Experimental results indicate that the tensile behavior of Ti-5Al-2.5Sn alloy is dependent on strain rate and temperature. Yield stress and flow stress increase with increasing strain rate and decrease with increasing temperature. Results also indicate that strain hardening rate of Ti-5Al-2.5Sn alloy is lower at high strain rate, while strain hardening rate varies little with testing temperature. The Khan-Huang-Liang constitutive model was chosen to characterize the tensile responses of Ti-5Al-2.5Sn alloy at low temperatures and different strain rates. The model results coincide well with the experimental results within the tested temperature and rate ranges.

Stress Softening

Abstract Stress softening of carbon black reinforced butadiene styrene rubber was studied as a function of the rate and temperature of the original tensile deformation. To a good approximation, stress softening depends on the product of the extension rate and a temperature function which is analytically well represented by the familiar Williams-Landel-Ferry relationship. When the elongation of the original deformation is also varied, a good correlation is obtained between stress softening and the maximum stress attained in the original extension, irrespective of the particular combination of strain, strain rate, and temperature used to achieve this stress. Variables which tend to increase the stiffness of the vulcanizate, such as increased degree of crosslinking or carbon black chain structure, also increase stress softening; dilution by plasticizers decreases it. Prestressing at high strain rates and low temperatures affects the stress—strain curve of the softened vulcanizates beyond the elongation of the original extension. Connections are established between stress softening and viscoelastic and failure behavior. The evidence presented favors the contribution of several mechanisms to the general phenomenon of stress softening. These are thixotropy of transient filler structures, network chain rupture, and breakage of “permanent” filler structure. The latter appears to be most important at high strain rates, low temperatures, and with highly reticulated “structure” blacks.

The compressive behavior of ME20M alloy along rolling direction (RD) at a wide strain rates under low temperatures is investigated in this paper. Compressive stress-strain results reveal that the effect of strain rate on yield strength and flow stress is not obvious, especially at low temperatures. Moreover, the temperature plays an important role in compressive responses. SEM observations indicate that brittle fracture is the main fracture mode at low strain rate, and ductile fracture occurs in the failure of the alloy at high strain rate.

Dynamic Deformation Behavior

The dynamic deformation behavior of an as-extruded Mg-Gd-Y magnesium alloy was studied by using Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) apparatus under high strain rates of 102 s-1 to 103s-1 in the present work, in the mean while the microstructure evolution after deformation were inspected by OM and SEM. The results demonstrated that the material is not sensitive to the strain rate and with increasing the strain rate the yield stress of as-extruded Mg-Gd-Y magnesium alloy has a tendency of increasing. The microstructure observation results shown that several deformation localization areas with the width of 10mm formed in the strain rates of 465s-1 and 2140s-1 along the compression axis respectively, and the grain boundaries within the deformation localization area are parallel with each other and are perpendicular to the compression axis. While increasing the strain rate to 3767s-1 the deformation seems become uniform and all the grains are compressed flat in somewhat. The deformation mechanism of as-extruded Mg-Gd-Y magnesium alloy under high strain rate at room temperature was also discussed.

Dynamic and quasi-static tensile tests of 5083P-O aluminium alloy were carried out using RPL100 electronic creep/fatigue testing machine and the split Hopkinson tension bar, respectively. The dynamic constitutive relation of the material at high strain rates was studied, and the constitutive model in accordance with Cowper–Symonds form was established. At the same time, a method to describe the constitutive relation of material using the strain rate interpolation method which is included in LS-DYNA software was proposed. The advantages and accuracy of this method were verified by comparing the results of the finite element simulation with the fitting results of the Cowper-Symonds model. The influence of material strain rate effect on squeezing force, energy absorption and deformation mode of the squeezing energy-absorbing structure based on the constitutive models of 5083P-O were studied by means of finite element simulation. The results show that when the strain rate of the structure deformation is low, the material strain rate strengthening effect has little influence on the structure. However, with the increase of the strain rate, the strengthening effect of the material will improve the squeezing force and the energy absorption of the structure, and will also influence the deformation mode, that is, the decrease of the deformation with high strain rates while the increase of the deformation with low strain rates.

3D Braided Composites

The uniaxial tensile properties of 4-step 3D braided E-glass/epoxy composites under quasi-static and high-strain rate loadings have been investigated to evaluate the tensile failure mode at different strain rates. The uniaxial tensile properties at high strain rates from 800/s to 2100/s were tested using the split Hopkinson tension bar (SHTB) technique. The tensile properties at quasi-static strain rate were also tested and compared with those in high strain rates. Z-transform theory is applied to 3D braided composites to characterize the system dynamic behaviors in frequency domain. The frequency responses and the stability of 3D braided composites under quasi-static and high-strain rate compression have been analyzed and discussed in the Z-transform domain. The results indicate that the stress-strain curves are rate sensitive, and tensile modulus, maximum tensile stress and corresponding tensile strain are also sensitive to the strain rate. The tensile modulus, maximum tensile stress of the 3D braided composites are linearly increased with the strain rate. With increasing of the strain rate (from 0.001/s to 2100/s), the tensile failure of the 3D braided composite specimens has a tendency of transition from ductile failure to brittle failure. The magnitude response and phase response is very different in quasi-static loading with that in high-strain rate loading. The 3D braided composite system is more stable at high strain rate than quasi-static loading.

The Finite Element Method

The influence of the strain rate on the plastic deformation of the metals was significant during the high strain rate of loading. However, it was very difficult to obtain high strain rate data (≥ 104 s-1) by experimental techniques. Therefore, the finite element method and iterative method were employed in this study. Numerical simulation was used to characterise the deformation behavior of Hadfield steel during explosion treatment. Base on experimental data, a modified Johnson-Cook equation for Hadfield steel under various strain rate was fitted. The development of two field variables was quantified during explosion hardening: equivalent stress and strain rates.
