In the present study the influence of strain rate and temperature on the behaviour of two commercial aluminium alloys, 6063-T6 and 7030-T6, was investigated. Both alloys are high strength precipitation hardened alloys that are expected to have low strain rate and temperature sensitivity. Tensile tests were performed at room temperature at strain rates ranging from 10-4 to 102 s-1, and at -40°C and +60°C at strain rates of 10-4 and 10-1 s-1, due to equipment limitations. Both alloys showed low but positive strain rate sensitivity at all temperatures. Also the temperature sensitivity was low, showing negative values in all cases. The dependence of the flow stress on temperature was more pronounced than the strain rate dependence. The area reduction at fracture was higher in 6063 than 7030, although the uniform elongation was larger in 7030. 6063 showed almost no strain rate dependence of the ductility and a limited reduction with increased temperature. 7030 showed markedly increasing area reduction with increasing temperature and decreasing values with increasing strain rate. The energy absorption was higher in 7030 by a factor of approximately three.

First Results

In this paper the first results of the mechanical characterization in tension of two high strength alloys in a wide range of strain rates are presented. Different experimental techniques were used for different strain rates: a universal machine, a Hydro-Pneumatic Machine and a JRC-Split Hopkinson Tensile Bar. The experimental research was developed in the DynaMat laboratory of the University of Applied Sciences of Southern Switzerland. An increase of the stress at a given strain increasing the strain-rate from 10-3 to 103 s-1, a moderate strain-rate sensitivity of the uniform and fracture strain, a poor reduction of the cross-sectional area at fracture with increasing the strain-rate were shown. Based on these experimental results the parameters required by the Johnson-Cook constitutive law were determined.

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.

The structure–property relationships of a vintage ASTM A7 steel is quantified in terms of stress state, temperature, and strain rate dependence. The microstructural stereology revealed primary phases to be 15.8% ± 2.6% pearlitic and 84.2% ± 2.6 ferritic with grain sizes of 13.3 μm ± 3.1 μm and 36.5 μm ± 7.0 μm, respectively. Manganese particle volume fractions represented 0.38–1.53% of the bulk material. Mechanical testing revealed a stress state dependence that showed a maximum strength increase of 85% from torsion to tension and a strain rate dependence that showed a maximum strength increase of 38% from 10−1 to 103 s−1at 20% strain. In tension, a negative strain rate sensitivity (nSRS) was observed in the quasi-static rate regime yet was positive when traversing from the quasi-static rates to high strain rates. Also, the A7 steel exhibited a significant ductility reduction as the temperature increased from ambient to 573 K (300 °C), which is uncommon for metals. The literature argues that dynamic strain aging (DSA) can induce the negative strain rate sensitivity and ductility reduction upon a temperature increase. Finally, a tension/compression stress asymmetry arises in this A7 steel, which can play a significant role since bending is prevalent in this ubiquitous structural material. Torsional softening was also observed for this A7 steel.

The strain-rate dependence of vacancy cluster sizes in hydrogen-charged martensitic steel AISI410 under tensile deformation was investigated using positron lifetime spectroscopy. The vacancy-cluster sizes in hydrogen-charged samples tended to increase with decreasing strain rates during the tensile deformations. The vacancy-cluster sizes significantly correlated to the tensile elongations to fracture. It was revealed that the presence of large-sized vacancy-clusters can cause the degradation of mechanical properties and followed by brittle fracture.

Background – In spite of a number of researchers, it is well known that mechanical behaviour of a spinal cord under loading has not yet been studied extensively enough. Methods - Specimens were loaded at various strain rates: 0.02/s and 0.002/s to 5% and 10% strain. After reaching defined strain value, samples were left at a constant strain for stress relaxation. Findings – The demonstrated tensile testing stress-strain response is a highly non-linear curve corresponding to low stiffness. In the toe region stress increases exponentially with the applied strain. The highest calculated stress value for 10% strain was 0,014 MPa (strain rate 0,02/s) and 0,008 MPa (strain rate 0,002/s). Linear approximation of the stress by the least square method allowed to derive Young modulus of the value: 39,68 kPa at strain rate 0,02/s and 31,07 kPa at strain rate 0,002/s. R squared value for both regressions was above 0,99 and confirmed a good quality of approximation. A and β coefficients were 1,5MPa and 31,3 at 0,02/s strain rates and 1,3MPa and 25,3 at 0,002/s strain rates correspondingly. Relative stress relaxation increased from 20% to 37% after 60 s. Absolute stress relaxation was from 0,4kPa to 2,4kPa, at 0,002/s strain rate by 5% maximum strain and 0,02/s strain rate by 10% respectively. Interpretation - Mechanical characteristics demonstrated a visible strain-rate dependence as stiffness was significantly increasing with an increase of strain rate. Mechanical characteristics demonstrated a visible strain-rate dependence as stiffness was significantly increasing with an increase of strain rate.

ABSTRACTThe compressive ductilities of Ni3Al-Zr-B base alloys with sole addition of magnesium (0.02∼0.06wt.%) and combined addition of magnesium(0.02wt.%) and silicon(0.54∼1.08wt.%) respectively responding to strain rate rising from 10-4sec-1 to 10-1 sec-1 have been studied in a high temperature range of 1073∼1273K. The results show that the compressive strains at rupture(CSR) of the alloys have been greatly improved by sole addition of magnesium and the alloys with combined addition of magnesium and silicon reveal even higher CSR values, furthermore, at temperatures of 1073K and 1273K, the strain rate dependence of CSR reveals to be anomalous, i.e, the CSR value increases as the strain rate rises, and then declines until it surpasses the peak value, which is corresponded to the strain rate of 10-3 sec-1 and 10-3 sec-1 respectively.The beneficial effect of magnesium and silicon exists in their competence of reducing strain rate sensitivity exponent values. The mechanisms of the anomalous ductilizing behavior in the Ni3Al as affected by ternary elements are discussed.
