Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 15Effect of Heat Treatment on the Blast Loading Response of Combined Geometry Shell Core Sandwich Structures(Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Taşdemirci, Alper; Kara, Ali; Turan, Kıvanç; Şahin, Selim; Güden, MustafaThe effect of heat treatment on the dynamic crushing and energy absorption behavior of combined geometry shell cores (hemisphere and cylinder) of sandwich structures were investigated both experimentally and numerically. The applied heat treatment on the combined geometry shell cores relieved the stress caused by deep drawing, diminishing the peak transmitted forces. The verified numerical models of the as-received and heat-treated combined geometry shells were used to model blast loading of various sandwich configurations and the additional sandwich configurations of reversing the cylindrical side of the cores to the impacted side. Both the applied heat-treatment and the reversing process decreased the magnitude of the force transmitted to the protected structure. The applied heat treatment increased the arrival time of blast force wave to the protected structure, while the reversing resulted in opposite.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 18Dynamic Crushing and Energy Absorption of Sandwich Structures With Combined Geometry Shell Cores(Elsevier Ltd., 2015) Taşdemirci, Alper; Kara, Ali; Turan, Kıvanç; Şahin, SelimDynamic crushing and energy absorption characteristics of sandwich structures with combined geometry shell cores were investigated experimentally and numerically. The effect of strain rate on the crushing behavior was presented by the crushing tests at quasi-static, intermediate and high strain rate regimes. It was shown that absorbed energy increased with increasing impact velocity. The effect of confinement on crushing behavior was shown by conducting confined experiments at quasi-static and dynamic rates. Higher buckling loads at lower deformation were observed in confined quasi-static crushing due to additional lateral support and friction provided by confinement wall. By using fictitious numerical models with strain rate insensitive material models, the effect of inertia and strain rate on crushing were shown. It was observed that, increase in impact velocity caused increase in inertial effects and strain rate effects were nearly independent from the impact velocity. The effects of multilayering were also investigated numerically.Article Citation - WoS: 30Citation - Scopus: 36Crushing and Energy Absorption Characteristics of Combined Geometry Shells at Quasi-Static and Dynamic Strain Rates: Experimental and Numerical Study(Elsevier Ltd., 2015) Taşdemirci, Alper; Şahin, Selim; Kara, Ali; Turan, Ali KıvançThe quasi-static and dynamic crushing response and the energy absorption characteristics of combined geometry shells composed of a hemispherical cap and a cylindrical segment were investigated both experimentally and numerically. The inelastic deformation of the shells initiated with the inversion of the hemisphere cap and followed by the axisymmetric or diamond folding of the cylindrical segment depending on the loading rate and dimensions. The fracture of the thinner specimens in dynamic tests was ascribed to the rise of the flow stress to the fracture stress with increasing strain rate. The hemisphere cap absorbed more energy at dynamic rates than at quasi-static rates, while it exhibited lower strain rate and inertia sensitivities than the cylinder segment. For both the hemisphere cap and the cylinder segment, the inertial effect was shown to be more pronounced than strain rate effect at increasing impact velocities. © 2014 Elsevier Ltd.
