The hereby paper presents comparison of numerically modelled Charpy test in LS-Dyna environment with an experiment on accredited Charpy impact test machine. The comparison was applied to dimensions of a strained sample at selected points and energy consumed for the sample fracture and strains during the test.

In spite of its complexitiy and difficulties in measuring it, fracture can reveal a high amount of information on material structure and properties. Microstructure of additive manufactured parts is studied in this work. Standard impact test parts were manufactured on OBJET EDEN 350V machine in three different orientation, and they were broken by a Charpy impact test machine. Different surfaces of broken parts were studied with an electron microscope. High variety of structures were observed, and explained by technological aspects of manufacturing system, and material properties. It is shown, that material is surprisingly brittle. Microscopic study pointed out that microstructure is definitely anisotropic.

Charpy impact test is very sensitive to mechanical processing technologies and product defects. Charpy impact test can give quantitative test data and improve the product quality of advanced manufacturing industry and the safety of the application of new materials. The Charpy impact test machine has elastic deformation. The center of percussion is different from the designed center of strike and this difference can affect the vibration energy on the pendulum. In this article, by using the finite element analysis method, we simulate experimental processes having different distance to the center of percussion and obtain the numerical quantity related effects. In the end, we verify the accuracy of the finite element analysis by using different energy level impact test.

Abstract The paper deals with the mechanical properties of steel gas pipeline DN 500 after more than 40 years of operation. Mechanical properties of the pipeline were established by a tensile test at an ambient temperature according to the standard EN ISO 6892-1. The resistance of the pipeline against brittle failure was evaluated by using Charpy impact test according to EN 10045-1. The character of fracture surface after the Charpy test was analysed by using scanning electron microscopy. A high proportion of transcrystalline cleavage was a characteristic feature of fracture surfaces. Mechanical characteristics obtained by static tensile testing were compared with the values obtained from steel manufacturer. Higher elongation was observed in a parallel direction compared to the perpendicular direction to the axis of the pipe. The observed anisotropy of properties was related to the distribution of inclusions in the direction of the deformation of the steel sheets used for the pipeline construction.

This research paper deals with an investigation of the influence of honeycomb core compression on the mechanical properties of sandwich structures. These structures consist of prepreg facing layers and two different material types of honeycomb and are produced by modified compression molding called Crush-Core technology. Produced structures are mechanically tested in three-point bending test and subjected to low-velocity impact and Charpy impact test.

This paper presents an experimental research on the mechanical properties of the hybrid composite thin-plates of the short basalt fibers (CBFs)/carbon textile-reinforced geomortar. The effect of fiber contents and lengths of CBFs on the flexural behavior of carbon textile-reinforced geopolymer specimens (TRGs) was investigated by the four-point flexural strength and Charpy impact test. The experimental results of hybrid TRGs, on the one hand, were compared with reference TRGs, without CBF addition; on the other hand, they were compared with the results of our previous publication. According to the mixing manner applied, fresh geomortar indicated a marked reduction in workability, increasing the CBF loading. Furthermore, using CBFs with lengths of 12 mm and 24 mm makes it easy to form the fiber clusters in geomortar during mixing. According to all the CBF loadings used, it was found that TRGs showed a significant improvement in both static and dynamic flexural strength. However, the failure mode of these TRGs is similar to that of the reference TRGs, described by the process of fiber debonding or simultaneously fiber debonding and collapse. In comparison with our prior work results, neither the CBF dose levels nor the fiber lengths used in this work have yielded a positive effect on the failure manner of TRGs. According to the results of the Charpy impact test, this reveals that the anchoring capacity of textile layers in geomortar plays an important role in specimens’ strength.
