Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Numerical and Experimental Studies of High Strain Rate Mechanical Behavior of E-glass/Polyester Composite Laminates(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers(ASME), 2010) Tunusoğlu, Gözde; Taşdemirci, Alper; Güden, Mustafa; Hall, Ian W.Quasi-static ∼10-3 s-1) and high strain rate (∼850 s-1) compression behavior of an E-glass/polyester composite was determined in the through-thickness and in-plane directions. In both directions, modulus and failure strength increased with increasing strain rate. Higher strain rate sensitivity for both elastic modulus and failure strength was observed in the in-plane direction. A numerical model was developed to investigate the compressive deformation and fracture of an E-glass/polyester composite. Excellent agreement was demonstrated for the case of high strain rate loading. Also, the fracture geometries were successfully predicted with the numerical model.Conference Object Off-Axis Properties of Cross-Ply Metal Matrix Composites at Quasi-Static and High Strain Rates(Elsevier Ltd., 2011) Hall, Ian W.; Taşdemirci, Alper; Kara, AliCylindrical samples of a 0/90° cross-ply Nextel 610™/A1-6061 (∼55Vf%) metal matrix composite have been subjected to compression testing at quasi-static and high strain rates over a range of angles between 0° and ±45° with respect to the principal fiber directions. The results, combined with testing in the longitudinal, transverse and through thickness directions, provide a detailed description of the response of such composites over a wide range of orientations. In addition, metallographic and fractographic studies along with high-speed camera records provide detailed information about the sequence of deformation events leading to fracture. Results confirm not only the strong dependence of mechanical properties upon orientation but also the critical importance of precise fiber alignment and processing in obtaining the desired theoretical properties. A misalignment of 10° was sufficient to cause an -40% decrease in maximum stress and the properties were found to vary by >70% over the orientations investigated. The high strain rate properties were generally significantly greater than those measured quasi-statically. A numerical model based on the commercial explicit finite element code LS-DYNA was used to investigate the compressive deformation and fracture of the composite. Experimental results are compared with those of the numerical model. © 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.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: 5Citation - Scopus: 7High Strain Rate Testing of a Unidirectionally Reinforced Graphite Epoxy Composite(Chapman & Hall, 2001) Hall, Ian W.; Güden, MustafaSince accurate, reproducible methods of testing polymer composites are not very well developed or standardized, this research forms part of a program to gain a better understanding of the mechanical properties and failure mechanisms of polymer composites at high strain rates. Since failure modes differ markedly depending on fiber architecture, orientation, fiber/matrix combination and so forth, these initial tests were carried out using a simple unidirectionally reinforced composite. Beginning with testing in the longitudinal and transverse directions, reported here, future experiments are being carried out to determine how the high strain rate properties vary with angle of testing, and then move on to other simple fiber lay-ups, ±90◦, ±45◦, etc.Article Citation - WoS: 25Citation - Scopus: 28High Strain Rate Deformation Behavior of a Continuous Fiber Reinforced Aluminum Metal Matrix Composite(Elsevier Ltd., 2000) Güden, Mustafa; Hall, Ian W.An aluminum metal matrix composite reinforced with continuous unidirectional α-Al2O3 fibers has been compression tested at quasi-static and dynamic strain rates. In the transverse direction, the composite showed increased flow stress and maximum stress within the studied strain rate regime, 10−3 to 3500 s−1. The strain rate sensitivity of the flow stress in this direction was found to be similar to that of a similar, but unreinforced, alloy determined from previous work. In the longitudinal direction, the maximum stress of the composite increased with increasing strain rate within the range 10−5 to 700 s−1. The strain rate dependent maximum stress in this direction was described by the strain rate dependent fiber buckling stress.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Improving the Energy Absorption of Closed Cell Aluminum Foams(Chapman & Hall, 2002) Greene, S. A.; Hall, Ian W.; Güden, MustafaClosed cell aluminum foams have received much recent attention as energy absorbing materials on account of their ability to undergo extensive deformation at a relatively low stress called the plateau stress. Several studies describe the improvements in energy absorption to be obtained, relative to their empty counterparts, when foam filled tubes are crushed either quasi-statically or dynamically [1–4]. Al foams are also of possible interest for ballistic applications because they present a very large acoustic impedance mismatch with common armor materials, offering the possibility of being able to modify theway in which elasticwaves travel through multi-component armor.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 18Experimental and Numerical Investigation of High Strain Rate Mechanical Behavior of a [0/45 - 45] Quadriaxial E-glass/Polyester Composite(Elsevier Ltd., 2011) Taşdemirci, Alper; Kara, Ali; Turan, Ali Kıvanç; Tunusoğlu, Gözde; Güden, Mustafa; Hall, Ian W.Quasi-static (10−3–10−1 s−1) and high strain rate (∼900 s−1) compression behavior of an E-Glass fiber woven fabric reinforced Polyester matrix composites was investigated by using a Shimadzu AG-I testing machine and a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar apparatus in the Dynamic Testing and Modeling Laboratory of Izmir Institute of Technology. During the experiments, a high speed camera was used to determine deformation behavior. In both directions, modulus and failure strength increased with increasing strain rate. Higher strain rate sensitivity for both elastic modulus and failure strength was observed in the in-plane direction. Based upon these experimental data, a numerical model was developed using the commercial explicit finite element code LS-DYNA to investigate compressive deformation and damage behavior of composites. Excellent agreement was demonstrated for the case of high strain rate loading. Also, the fracture geometries were successfully predicted with the numerical model.
