The review on effect of a high strain rate on the properties of TiNi-shape memory alloys is presented. The study of thermo-mechanical and functional properties of SMA after high strain rate loading was carried out. The object of study was an equiatomic TiNi shape memory alloy. The samples were tensioned at a strain rate of about 103s-1at various temperatures in martensitic, austenitic, and two-phase state, using the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar technique. Two-way shape memory effects were investigated. Two-way shape memory after high strain rate loading was less than after the quasi-static one for all cases, except for straining in martensitic state.

AbstractThe usage of resin-based materials for 3D printing applications has been growing over the past decades. In this study, two types of resins, namely a MMA-based resin and an ABS-based tough resin, are subjected to compression tests on a split Hopkinson pressure bar to deduce their dynamic properties under high strain rate loading.Two Hopkinson bar setups are used, the first one is equipped with aluminum bars and the second one with PMMA bars. From the measured strain waves, elastic moduli at high strain rates are derived. Both setups lead to values of $E=3.4$ E = 3.4 –3.8 GPa at a strain rate of about 250 s−1. Numerical simulations support the experiments. Moreover, considering the waves gained from the two different bar setups, PMMA bars appear to be well-suited for testing resin samples and are therefore recommended for such applications.

In this paper is described the mechanical characterization at high strain rate of the high strength steel usually adopted for strands. The experimental set-up used for high strain rates testing: in tension and compression was the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar installed in the Laboratory of Dynamic Investigation of Materials in Nizhny Novgorod. The high strain rate data in tension was obtained with dog-bone shaped specimens of 3mm in diameter and 5mm of gauge length. The specimens were screwed between incident and transmitter bars. The specimens used in compression was a cylinder of 3mm in diameter and 5mm in length. The enhancement of the mechanical properties is quite limited compared the usual reinforcing steels.

The high strain-rate compressive characteristics of a cross-ply carbon/epoxy laminated composite in the three principal material directions or fibre (1-), in-plane transverse (2-) and throughthickness (3-) directions are investigated on the conventional split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) over a range of temperatures between 20 and 80 °C. A nearly 10 mm thick cross-ply carbon/epoxy composite laminate fabricated using vacuum assisted resin transfer molding (VaRTM) was tested. Cylindrical specimens with a slenderness ratio (= length/diameter) of 0.5 are used in high strain-rate tests, and those with the slenderness ratios of 1.0 and 1.5 are used in low and intermediate strain-rate tests. The uniaxial compressive stress-strain curves up to failure at quasi-static and intermediate strain rates are measured on an Instron testing machine at elevated temperatures. A pair of steel rings is attached to both ends of the cylindrical specimens to prevent premature end crushing in the 1-and 2-direction tests on the Instron testing machine. It is shown that the ultimate compressive strength (or failure stress) exhibits positive strainrate effects and negative temperature ones over a strain-rate range of 10–3 to 103/s and a temperature range of 20 to 80 °C in the three principal material directions.
