Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 15The Effect of Strain Rate on the Compression Behavior of Additively Manufactured Short Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polyamide Composites With Different Layer Heights, Infill Patterns, and Built Angles(Springer, 2023) Zeybek, Mehmet Kaan; Güden, Mustafa; Taşdemirci, AlperPrevious studies on the fused deposition modelling (FDM) processed short carbon fiber/Polyamide 6 (PA6) matrix composites and neat PA6 have mostly concentrated on the quasi-static mechanical properties. Present study focused on the strain rate-dependent deformation behavior of a short carbon fiber-reinforced PA6 (Onyx) and neat PA6, produced in different layer heights, infill patterns and built angles. As compared with PA6, Onyx showed a higher compression stress at all strain rates investigated. A layer height of 0.2 mm in PA6 specimens promoted a better bonding between [0/90°] infill layers; hence, a higher flow stress than 0.2 mm layer height specimens, while 0.2 mm layer height induced a higher porosity in Onyx specimens, leading to a lower flow stress. The porosities in Onyx [0/90°] infill specimens were due to the constraining effect of 0/90° fiber layers. Changing infill pattern from a [0/90°] to a concentric one decreased porosity at the same layer height and hence increased the compressive flow stress. The highest compressive strength was found in the specimens with the loading axis 90 and 0° to [0/90°] infill plane. The lowest strength was, however, determined in the specimens with the loading axis 30 and 60o to [0/90°] infill plane in quasi-static loading. However, the specimens with the loading axis of 60, 45, 30 and 0° exhibited a brittle behavior in high strain rate loading (1500 s−1). The specimens with the loading axis of 45° had the lowest fracture stress and strain in the high strain rate loading. This signified the importance of loading angle at high strain rates. Finally, the rate sensitivities of PA6 and Onyx specimens were shown to be similar, showing a matrix dominated deformation. However, the strain rate jump tests indicated a slightly higher rate sensitivity of Onyx specimens at quasi-static strain rates (10−3-10−1 s−1).Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 14The Quasi-Static Crush Response of Electron-Beam Ti6al4v Body-Centred Lattices: The Effect of the Number of Cells, Strut Diameter and Face Sheet(Wiley, 2022) Güden, Mustafa; Alpkaya, Alican Tuncay; Arslan Hamat, Burcu; Hızlı, Burak; Taşdemirci, Alper; Tanrıkulu, A. Alptuğ; Yavaş, HakanThe effect of the number of cells, strut diameter and face sheet on the compression of electron-beam-melt (EBM) Ti6Al4V (Ti64) body-centred-cubic (BCC) lattices was investigated experimentally and numerically. The lattices with the same relative density (~0.182) were fabricated with and without 2-mm-thick face sheets in 10 and 5 mm cell size, 8–125 unit cell (two to five cells/edge) and 2 and 1 mm strut diameter. The experimental compression tests were further numerically simulated in the LS-DYNA. Experimentally two bending-dominated crushing modes, namely, lateral and diagonal layer crushing, were determined. The numerical models however exhibited merely a bending-dominated lateral layer crushing mode when the erosion strain was 0.4 and without face-sheet models showed a diagonal layer crushing mode when the erosion strain was 0.3. Lower erosion strains promoted a diagonal layer crushing mode by introducing geometrical inhomogeneity to the lattice, leading to strain localisation as similar to the face sheets which introduced extensive strut bending in the layers adjacent to the face sheets. The face-sheet model showed a higher but decreasing collapse strength at an increasing number of cells, just as opposite to the without face-sheet model, and the collapse strength of both models converged when the number of cells was higher than five-cell/edge. The decrease/increase of the collapse strengths of lattices before the critical number of cells was claimed mainly due to the size-imposed lattice boundary condition, rather than the specimen volume. The difference in the experimental collapse strengths between the 5- and the 10-mm cell-size lattices was ascribed to the variations in the microstructures—hence the material model parameters between the small-diameter and the large-diameter EBM-Ti64 strut lattices.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Impact Loading and Modelling a Multilayer Aluminium Corrugated/Fin Core: the Effect of the Insertion of Imperfect Fin Layers(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2019) Sarıkaya, Mustafa; Taşdemirci, Alper; Güden, MustafaThe quasi-static compression (0.0048 m/s) and Taylor-like impact (135, 150, and 200 m/s) loading of a multilayer 1050 H14 aluminium corrugated core were investigated both experimentally and numerically in LS-DYNA using the perfect and imperfect sample models. In the imperfect sample models, one or two layers of corrugated fin structure were replaced by the fin layers made of bent-type cell walls. The localised deformation in the quasi-static imperfect models of cylindrical sample started at the imperfect layers, the same as the tests, and the layers were compressed until about the densification strain in a step-wise fashion. The localised deformation in the perfect models, however, started at the layers at and near the top and bottom of the test sample. In the shock mode, the sample crushed sequentially starting at the impact end layer regardless the perfect or imperfect sample models were used. Furthermore, the perfect and imperfect models resulted in nearly the same initial crushing stresses in the shock mode. The layer strain histories revealed a velocity-dependent layer densification strain. Both model types, the imperfect and perfect, well approximated the stress-time histories and layer deformations of the shock mode. The rigid perfectly plastic locking model based on the numerically determined densification strains also showed well agreements with the experimental and numerical plateau stresses of the shock mode.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 18Projectile Impact Testing of Glass Fiber-Reinforced Composite and Layered Corrugated Aluminium and Aluminium Foam Core Sandwich Panels: a Comparative Study(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2012) Odacı, İsmet Kutlay; Kılıçaslan, Cenk; Taşdemirci, Alper; Güden, MustafaE-glass/polyester composite and layered corrugated aluminium and aluminium foam core sandwich panels were projectile impact tested between 127 m/s and 190 m/s using a hardened steel sphere projectile. The corrugated aluminium cores, constructed from aluminium fin layers and aluminium interlayers and face sheets, exhibited relatively lower-plateau stresses and higher stress oscillations in the plateau region than aluminium foam cores. The applied brazing process resulted in reductions in the plateau stresses of the corrugated aluminium cores. The sandwich panels with 2- and 3-mm-thick composite face sheets and the epoxy-bonded corrugated aluminium sheet cores were perforated, while the sandwich panels with 5-mm-thick composite face sheets were penetrated in the projectile impact tests. On the other hand, the sandwich panels with aluminium foam cores were only penetrated. A simple comparison between the ballistic limits of the sandwich panels as a function of total weight revealed significant increases in the ballistic limits of the cores with the inclusion of composite face sheets. The determined higher impact resistance of the foam core sandwich panels was attributed to the relatively higher strength of the foam cores investigated and the ability to distribute the incident impulse to a relatively large area of the backing composite plate.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 10Experimental Testing and Full and Homogenized Numerical Models of the Low Velocity and Dynamic Deformation of the Trapezoidal Aluminium Corrugated Core Sandwich(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2014) Kılıçaslan, Cenk; Odacı, İsmet Kutlay; Taşdemirci, Alper; Güden, MustafaThe simulations of the low velocity and dynamic deformation of a multi-layer 1050-H14 Al trapezoidal zig-zag corrugated core sandwich were investigated using the homogenized models (solid models) of a single core layer (without face sheets). In the first part of the study, the LS-DYNA MAT-26 material model parameters of a single core layer were developed through experimental and numerical compression tests on the single core layer. In the second part, the fidelities of the developed numerical models were checked by the split-Hopkinson pressure bar direct impact, low velocity compression and indentation and projectile impact tests. The results indicated that the element size had a significant effect on the initial peak and post-peak stresses of the homogenized models of the direct impact testing of the single-layer corrugated sandwich. This was attributed to the lack of the inertial effects in the homogenized models, which resulted in reduced initial peak stresses as compared with the full model and experiment. However, the homogenized models based on the experimental stress–strain curve of the single core layer predicted the low velocity compression and indentation and projectile impact tests of the multi-layer corrugated sandwich with an acceptable accuracy and reduced the computational time of the models significantly.
