The mechanical strength of a fiber-metal laminate is not so well explored at high strain rates, although its constituents are prone to exhibit such effects. In this paper, we describe an investigation of aluminium-fiber glass material using the Split Hopkinson bar device. We report on various experimental issues related to these tests, giving some emphasis to the use of high speed filming to obtain information on the specimen strain and strain rate.

In this work, a one-dimensional simplified model was developed to predict stress, strain, and strain-rate in high strain rates Hopkinson pressure bar experiments, namely, between 500-5000/s. To this goal, a one-dimensional model for Hokinson bar tests was developed based on analyses of wave propagation in bars and assuming the specimen is under equilibrium during the test. The numerical tool implemented using Matlab and validated regarding experimental data. This new model will be very helpful in designing the specimens for split Hopkinson bar tests and also in the interpretation of the experimental raw data.

Abstract Deformation at elevated temperatures in combination with high strain rates leads to recovery and recrystallization in aluminum alloys. Previous work in recrystallization has emphasized the detailing of microstructural trend in progression from the deformed to the annealed state. In the following, we examine the effect of rate dependence on deformation on AA 5182 and AA 6061. It is demonstrated that identification of underlying microstructural mechanisms is critical. An experimental program is then outlined for characterization of recovery and recrystallization of AA 5182. Instantaneous hardening rate and flow stress are developed from interrupted compression tests. These data are used to establish a quantitative measure of recovery through evaluation of a state variable for work hardening, the mechanical threshold. It is intended that the results serve as a foundation for development of relations for evolution of a mechanical state variable in the presence of recrystallization. Such a framework is necessary for the practical prediction of interstand recrystallization in hot rolling operations.

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.
