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: 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: 3Citation - Scopus: 5The Effect of Strain Rate on the Mechanical Behavior of Teflon Foam(Elsevier Ltd., 2012) Taşdemirci, Alper; Turan, Ali Kıvanç; Güden, MustafaThe quasi-static (1 × 10−3, 1 × 10−2 and 1 × 10−1 s−1) and high strain rate (7200 and 9500 s−1) experimental and high strain rate numerical compression deformation of a Gore Polarchip™ CP7003 heat insulating Teflon foam was investigated. High strain rate tests were conducted with the insertion of quartz crystal piezoelectric transducers at the end of the transmitter bar of a compression Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) set-up in order to measure the force at the back face of the specimen. A fully developed numerical model of the SHPB test on Teflon was also implemented using LS-DYNA. The simulation stresses showed close correlations with the experimentally measured stresses on the bars. The developed model successfully simulated the high strain rate loading. The damage initiation and progression of experimental high strain rate tests were further recorded using a high speed camera and found to be very similar to those of the simulation high strain rate tests.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 28Mechanical Interlocking Between Porous Electrospun Polystyrene Fibers and an Epoxy Matrix(American Chemical Society, 2014) Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Horzum, Nesrin; Taşdemirci, Alper; Turan, Ali Kıvanç; Güden, MustafaAn epoxy matrix filled with nonwoven mats of porous polystyrene (PS) fibers processed by an electrospinning was compression tested at quasi-static (1 × 10–3 s–1) and high strain (315 s–1) rates. The electrospun PS fibers with a diameter between 6 and 9 μm, accommodated spherical pores on the surface with the sizes ranging from 0.1 to 0.2 μm. The filling epoxy matrix with 0.2 wt % PS fibers increased the compressive elastic modulus and compressive strength over those of neat epoxy resin. The microscopic observations indicated that the surface pores facilitated the resin intrusions into the fiber, enhancing the interlocking between resin and fibers, and increased the deformation energy expenditure of the polymer matrix.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.
