    Testing and Modeling Blast Loading of a Sandwich Structure Cored With a Bio-Inspired (balanus) Core
    (Elsevier, 2022) Tüzgel, Fırat; Akbulut, Emine Fulya; Güzel, Erkan; Yücesoy, Atacan; Şahin, Selim; Taşdemirci, Alper; Güden, Mustafa
    The blast loading response of a sandwich structure consisted of bio-inspired (balanus) cores/units was investigated experimentally and numerically. A Direct Pressure Pulse (DPP) set-up was used to impose a blast-like loading. The equivalent blast conditions corresponding to the used impact velocities were implemented in the models. A benchmark study was performed by using three different methods namely pure Lagrangian, Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian, and hybrid. Dynamic crushing behavior was analyzed and exhibited a higher specific energy absorption capacity than its constituents (core and shell). Among the core configurations, all-front configuration was found the most efficient configuration regarding the specific energy absorption.

    Crushing Behavior and Energy Absorption Performance of a Bio-Inspired Metallic Structure: Experimental and Numerical Study
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2018) Taşdemirci, Alper; Akbulut, Emine Fulya; Güzel, Erkan; Tüzgel, Fırat; Yücesoy, Atacan; Şahin, Selim; Güden, Mustafa
    A thin-walled structure inspired from a biologic creature known as balanus was investigated experimentally and numerically under quasi-static and dynamic loads for load-carrying and energy absorption properties. The structure was composed of an inner conical core with a hemispherical cap and an outer shell in frusto-conical shape and formed by deep drawing. The applied deep drawing process was modelled using nonlinear finite element code LS-DYNA to determine the residual stress/strain and the non-linear thickness distribution after the forming process. It was also shown that the load carried by the balanus structure was greater than the arithmetic sum of the load carried by the inner core and by the outer shell separately. Although the mean force increase due to interaction effect at quasi-static strain rate was approximately 5%, while it increased to roughly 26% at dynamic strain rates in drop weight experiments. The numerical models also showed that the outer shell absorbed more energy than the inner core while the difference between the energy absorbing performance of the core and shell decreased with increasing deformation rate. The effect of strain rate and inertia on the increase in crush load increased with increasing impact velocity, while the strain rate effect had greater influence than the inertia on the crush load. The increased load carrying capacity of the balanus at quasi-static and dynamic strain rates was ascribed to the interaction between the core and shell and the confinement effect of the outer shell particularly at dynamic strain rate.

    Dynamic Crushing and Energy Absorption of Sandwich Structures With Combined Geometry Shell Cores
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2015) Taşdemirci, Alper; Kara, Ali; Turan, Kıvanç; Şahin, Selim
    Dynamic 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.

    Crushing 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 Kıvanç
    The 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.
