Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Investigation of Penetration Behavior of Combined Geometry Shells at Quasi-Static and Intermediate Strain Rates: an Experimental and Numerical Study(Elsevier, 2023) Turan, Ali Kıvanç; Taşdemirci, Alper; Kara, Ali; Şahin, Selim; Güden, MustafaIn this study, the penetration/perforation behavior of a core material with previously determined static and dynamic crushing characteristics was investigated both experimentally and numerically. Penetration/perforation problems occur due to shrapnel effect when sandwich structures containing energy-absorbing core materials by crushing are exposed to blast loads. The penetration behavior of combined geometry shells consisting of a hemispherical cap and a cylindrical segment was investigated experimentally using blunt, conical and hemispherical penetrator tips. The quasi-static penetration tests were performed in a universal test machine, and the intermediate strain rate penetration tests were performed in a drop weight test device. The numerical models of penetration tests were implemented in LS-DYNA at the test strain rates as well as at the higher strain rates. Results showed that different penetrator geometries induced damage forms of symmetrical tearing, petaling, plugging and inversely formed hemispherical domed cone. The increase in the thickness of core geometry resulted in a decent increase in force–displacement curves, as average of force levels increased around 140%, 200% and 220% for blunt, conical and hemispherical tip penetrators, respectively. Numerical results indicated very good correlation with experimental work and enabled to investigate effect of strain rate and micro-inertia over numerical models at elevated penetrator velocities. Penetration behavior was found to be affected from micro-inertia effects up to a threshold displacement of 4 mm for thicker and 5 mm for thinner core units and strain rate effects were found to be dominant beyond that point.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: 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: 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.Article Citation - WoS: 32Citation - Scopus: 37Modeling Quasi-Static and High Strain Rate Deformation and Failure Behavior of a (±45) Symmetric E-glass/Polyester Composite Under Compressive Loading(Elsevier Ltd., 2013) Kara, Ali; Taşdemirci, Alper; Güden, MustafaQuasi-static (1 × 10−3–1 × 10−2 s−1) and high strain rate (∼1000 s−1) compressive mechanical response and fracture/failure of a (±45) symmetric E-glass/polyester composite along three perpendicular directions were determined experimentally and numerically. A numerical model in LS-DYNA 971 using material model MAT_162 was developed to investigate the compression deformation and fracture of the composite at quasi-static and high strain rates. The compressive stress–strain behaviors of the composite along three directions were found strain rate sensitive. The modulus and maximum stress of the composite increased with increasing strain rate, while the strain rate sensitivity in in-plane direction was higher than that in through-thickness direction. The damage progression determined by high speed camera in the specimens well agreed with that of numerical model. The numerical model successfully predicted the damage initiation and progression as well as the failure modes of the composite.
