    Numerical and Experimental Studies of Damage Generation in a Polymer Composite Material at High Strain Rates
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2006) Taşdemirci, Alper; Hall, Ian W.
    Samples of S2-glass/epoxy composites have been subjected to microstructural investigation after testing in compression at quasi-static and high strain rates using the split Hopkinson pressure bar. A numerical model was developed that accurately describes the high strain rate mechanical response of the samples. Moreover, in contrast with earlier phenomenological or constitutive models, the model can also predict a variety of failure modes such as delamination, matrix cracking or fiber crushing. High-speed photography was used to check the model results. Interrupted tests, followed by metallographic examination, have revealed that the sequence of damage events differs between quasi-static and high strain rate regimes. The effect of sample size on measured mechanical properties is noted and is confirmed via numerical modeling.

    Sic-Particulate Aluminum Composite Foams Produced by Powder Compacts: Foaming and Compression Behavior
    (Springer Verlag, 2003) Elbir, Semih; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Toksoy, Ahmet Kaan; Güden, Mustafa; Hall, Ian W.
    The foaming behavior of SiC-particulate (8.6% by volume) aluminum composite powder compacts contained Titanium Hydride blowing agent was investigated by heating above the melting temperature (750°C) in a pre-heated furnace. Aluminum powder compacts were also prepared and foamed using similar compaction and foaming parameters in order to determine the effect of SiC-particulate addition on foaming and compression behavior. The linear expansions of the compacts at various furnace holding times were ex situ determined. Optical and scanning electron microscopy techniques were used to characterize prepared and deformed foams microstructures. The SiC-particulate addition was found to increase the linear expansion and reduce the extent of the liquid metal drainage and cell coarsening of the aluminum compacts. The composite foam samples also showed higher compressive stresses, but a more brittle behavior as compared with aluminum foams.

    High Strain Rate Behavior of a Sic Particulate Reinforced Al2o3 Ceramic Matrix Composite
    (Elsevier Ltd., 1998) Hall, Ian W.; Güden, Mustafa
    The high strain rate deformation behavior of composite materials is important for several reasons. First, knowledge of the mechanical properties of composites at high strain rates is needed for designing with these materials in applications where sudden changes in loading rates are likely to occur. Second, knowledge of both the dynamic and quasi-static mechanical responses can be used to establish the constitutive equations which are necessary to increase the confidence limits of these materials, particularly if they are to be used in critical structural applications. Moreover, dynamic studies and the knowledge gained form them are essential for the further development of new material systems for impact applications. In this study, the high strain rate compressive deformation behavior of a ceramic matrix composite (CMC) consisting of SiC particles and an Al{sub 2}O{sub 3} matrix was studied and compared with its quasi-static behavior. Microscopic observations were conducted to investigate the deformation and fracture mechanism of the composite.
