Article Constitutive Equation Determination and Dynamic Numerical Modelling of the Compression Deformation of Concrete(Wiley, 2021) Seven, Semih Berk; Çankaya, M. Alper; Uysal, Çetin; Taşdemirci, Alper; Saatci, Selçuk; Güden, MustafaThe dynamic compression deformation of an in-house cast concrete (average aggregate size of 2-2.5 mm) was modelled using the finite element (FE), element-free Galerkin (EFG) and smooth particle Galerkin (SPG) methods to determine their capabilities of capturing the dynamic deformation. The numerical results were validated with those of the experimental split Hopkinson pressure bar tests. Both EFG and FE methods overestimated the failure stress and strain values, while the SPG method underestimated the peak stress. SPG showed similar load capacity profile with the experiment. At initial stages of the loading, all methods present similar behaviour. Nonetheless, as the loading continues, the SPG method predicts closer agreement of deformation profile and force histories. The increase in strength at high strain rate was due to both the rate sensitivity and lateral inertia caused by the confinement effect. The inertia effect of the material especially is effective at lower strain values and the strain rate sensitivity of the concrete becomes significant at higher strain values.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 7The Effect of Perforations on the Stress Wave Propagation Characteristics of Multilayered Materials(SAGE Publications Inc., 2016) Taşdemirci, Alper; Kara, AliThe effect of perforated interlayers on the stress wave transmission of multilayered materials was investigated both experimentally and numerically using the Split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) testing. The multilayer combinations consisted of a ceramic face plate and a glass/epoxy backing plate with a laterally constrained low modulus solid or perforated rubber and Teflon interlayer. The perforations on rubber interlayer delayed the stress rise time and reduced the magnitude of the transmitted stress wave at low strains, while the perforations allowed the passage of relatively high transmitted stresses at large strains similar to the solid rubber interlayer. It was concluded that the effect of perforations were somewhat less pronounced in Teflon interlayer configuration, arising from its relatively low Poisson's ratio. It was finally shown that SHPB testing accompanied with the numerical simulations can be used to analyze the effect of compliant interlayer insertion in the multilayered structures. © The Author(s) 2015.Article Citation - WoS: 27Citation - Scopus: 28Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar Multiple Reloading and Modeling of a 316 L Stainless Steel Metallic Hollow Sphere Structure(Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Taşdemirci, Alper; Ergönenç, Çağrı; Güden, MustafaThe high strain rate (600 s−1) compression deformation of a 316 L metallic hollow sphere (MHS) structure (density: 500 kg m−3; average outer hollow sphere diameter: 2 mm and wall thickness: 45 μm) was determined both numerically and experimentally. The experimental compressive stress–strain behavior at high strain rates until about large strains was obtained with multiple reloading tests using a large-diameter compression type aluminum Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) test apparatus. The multiple reloading of MHS samples in SHPB was analyzed with a 3D finite element model using the commercial explicit finite element code LS-DYNA. The tested MHS samples showed increased crushing stress values, when the strain rate increased from quasi-static (0.8 × 10−4 s−1) to high strain rate (600 s−1). Experimentally and numerically deformed sections of MHS samples tested showed very similar crushing characteristics; plastic hinge formation, the indentation of the spheres at the contact regions and sphere wall buckling at intermediate strains. The extent of micro-inertial effects was further predicted with the strain rate insensitive cell wall material model and with the strain rate sensitive behavior of MHS structure similar to that of the cell wall material. Based on the predictions, the strain rate sensitivity of the studied 316 L MHS sample was attributed to the strain rate sensitivity of the cell wall material and the micro-inertia.Article Citation - WoS: 24Citation - Scopus: 26Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar Compression Testing of an Aluminum Alloy: Effect of Lubricant Type(Chapman & Hall, 2003) Hall, Ian W.; Güden, MustafaThe Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB), or Kolsky Bar, is widely used for studying the dynamic mechanical properties of metals and other materials. A cylindrical specimen is sandwiched between the incident and transmitter bars, Fig. 1, and a constant amplitude elastic wave is generated by the striker bar. Strain gages mounted on the incident and transmitter bars allow the compressive stress-strain response of the specimen to be established using uniaxial elastic wave theory [1]. A more detailed overview of SHPB testing is found in [2]. Lubricant is usually applied to the interfaces because the presence of any frictional effect on the specimen surfaces forms a multiaxial stress-state and invalidates one of the most important assumptions of the SHPB analysis, namely, a uniaxial stress state. This paper quantifies the effect for an aluminum alloy.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 25Quasi-Static and Dynamic Crushing of Empty and Foam-Filled Tubes(Springer Verlag, 2001) Hall, Ian W.; Ebil, Özgenç; Güden, Mustafa; Yu, C.-J.Metallic foam-filled tubes and their empty counterparts have been tested at quasi-static and dynamic strain rates in order to determine their energy absorption capabilities. Data from the Split-Hopkinson Pressure Bar have been used to generate force vs. displacement curves that are somewhat analogous to pseudo-engineering stress-strain curves. Force balance calculations have also been made. These results indicate that, on an equal weight basis, foam-filled tubes offer greater energy absorption capability than empty tubes at quasi-static strain rates. However, the benefit of foam filling does not appear to be extended to strain rates of the order of 200–500 s−1. Force balance calculations are shown to have potential as a method for monitoring the crushing of metallic foams at high strain rate.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 5The Effect of Strain Rate on the Mechanical Behavior of Teflon Foam(Elsevier Ltd., 2012) Taşdemirci, Alper; Turan, Ali Kıvanç; Güden, MustafaThe quasi-static (1 × 10−3, 1 × 10−2 and 1 × 10−1 s−1) and high strain rate (7200 and 9500 s−1) experimental and high strain rate numerical compression deformation of a Gore Polarchip™ CP7003 heat insulating Teflon foam was investigated. High strain rate tests were conducted with the insertion of quartz crystal piezoelectric transducers at the end of the transmitter bar of a compression Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) set-up in order to measure the force at the back face of the specimen. A fully developed numerical model of the SHPB test on Teflon was also implemented using LS-DYNA. The simulation stresses showed close correlations with the experimentally measured stresses on the bars. The developed model successfully simulated the high strain rate loading. The damage initiation and progression of experimental high strain rate tests were further recorded using a high speed camera and found to be very similar to those of the simulation high strain rate tests.Article Metal Matrisli Kompozitlerin Yüksek Deformasyon Hızlarında Davranışları(TMMOB Metalurji ve Malzeme Mühendisleri Odası, 1999) Güden, Mustafa; Hall, Ian W.Süreksiz katkılarla kuvvetlendirilmiş Alüminyum Metal Matris Kompozit'lere düşük ve yüksek deformasyon hızlarında basma deneyleri uygulanmıştır.
