Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4The Effect of Cell Wall Material Strain and Strain-Rate Hardening Behaviour on the Dynamic Crush Response of an Aluminium Multi-Layered Corrugated Core(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2021) Güden, Mustafa; Canbaz, İlkerThe effect of the parameters of the Johnson and Cook material model on the direct impact crushing behaviour of a layered 1050 H14 aluminium corrugated structure was investigated numerically in LS-DYNA at quasi-static (0.0048 m s(-1)) and dynamic (20, 60, 150 and 250 m s(-1)) velocities. Numerical and experimental direct impact tests were performed by lunching a striker bar onto corrugated samples attached to the end of the incident bar of a Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar set-up. The numerical impact-end stress-time and velocity-time curves were further compared with those of rigid-perfectly-plastic-locking (r-p-p-l) model. Numerical and r-p-p-l model impact-end stress analysis revealed a shock mode at 150 and 250 m s(-1), transition mode at 60 m s(-1) and quasi-static homogenous mode at 20 m s(-1). The increase of velocity from quasi-static to 20 m s(-1) increased the numerical distal-end initial peak-stress, while it almost stayed constant between 20 and 250 m s(-1) for all material models. The increased distal-end initial peak-stress of strain rate insensitive models from quasi-static to 20 m s(-1) confirmed the effect of micro-inertia. The numerical models further indicated a negligible effect of used material models on the impact-end stress of investigated structure. Finally, the contribution of strain rate to the distal-end initial peak-stress of cellular structures made of low strain rate sensitive Al alloys was shown to be relatively low as compared with that of strain hardening and micro-inertia, but it might be substantial for the structures constructed using relatively high strain rate sensitive alloys.Article Citation - WoS: 29Citation - Scopus: 32The Optimisation of the Energy Absorption of Partially Al Foam-Filled Commercial 1050h14 and 6061t4 Al Crash Boxes(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2011) Toksoy, Ahmet Kaan; Güden, MustafaPartially Alulight and Hydro Al closed-cell foam-filled commercial 1050H14 Al and 6061T4 Al crash boxes were optimised using the response surface methodology in order to maximise specific energy absorption (SEA). The quasi-static crushing of empty and filled crash boxes was simulated using LS-DYNA, and the results were further confirmed with experimental quasi-static crushing testing of empty and Alulight foam-filled commercial 1050H14 Al crash boxes. Results showed that partial foam filling of commercial crash boxes increased both SEA and mean load because of foam filler axial and lateral deformation in between the progressing folds of the crash box. Within the studied constraint range of box mean load, box wall thickness and foam filler density, the optimised Alulight and Hydro foam-filled 1050H14 and 6061T4 crash boxes resulted in 26%–40% increase in total energy absorption as compared with empty crash boxes. Considering the same weight basis, the use of a higher yield strength box wall material and higher plateau stresses of Al foam filler resulted in higher energy absorptions in partial foam-filled boxes at relatively low displacements.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.
