The aluminum 7075-T6 is known as an alloy widely used in aircraft structural applications, which does not exhibit strain rate sensitivity during dynamic compressive tests. Despite mechanical importance of the material, there is not enough attention to determine appropriate sample dimensions such as a sample diameter relative to the device bar diameter and sample length to diameter (L/D) ratio for dynamic tests and how these two parameters can change mechanical behaviors of the sample under dynamic loading condition. In this study, various samples which have different diameters of 31.8, 25.4, 15.9, and 9.5 mm and sample L/D ratios of 2.0, 1.5, 1.0, 0.5, and 0.25 were tested using Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB), as this testing device is proper to characterize mechanical behaviors of solid materials at high strain rates. The mechanical behavior of this alloy was examined under ${\sim}200-5,500s^{-1}$ dynamic strain rate. Aluminum samples of 2.0, 1.5 and 1.0 of L/D ratios were well fitted into the stress-strain curve, Madison and Green's diagram, regardless of the sample diameters. Also, the 0.5 and 0.25 L/D ratio samples having the diameter of 31.8 and 25.4 mm followed the stress-strain curve. As results, larger samples (31.8 and 25.4 mm) in diameters followed the stress-strain curve regardless of the L/D ratios, whereas the 0.5 and 0.25 L/D ratios of small diameter sample (15.9 and 9.5 mm) did not follow the stress-strain diagram but significantly deviate from the diagram. Our results indicate that the L/D ratio is important determinant in stress-strain responses under the SHPB test when the sample diameter is small relative to the test bar diameter (31.8 mm), but when sample diameter is close to the bar diameter, L/D ratio does not significantly affect the stress-strain responses. This suggests that the areal mismatch (non-contact area of the testing bar) between the sample and the bar can misrepresent mechanical behaviors of the aluminum 7075-T6 at the dynamic loading condition.

구조부재는 정적, 동적 또는 충격과 같은 다양한 하중의 영향을 받고 있다. 결과적으로 이와 같은 하중의 영향이 고려된 재료의 물성치를 획득하기 위해 각 조건에 적합한 실험적 또는 해석적 방법이 수반되어야 한다. 일반적으로 고변형률 속도에서 재료의 기계적 물성을 얻는 방법으로써 홉킨슨 압력봉 시험법(SHPB)이 널리 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이와 같은 SHPB 시험을 통해 충격 하중 조건에서 알루미늄 합금의 압축변형거동을 고찰하였으며, 실험결과와 해석결과를 비교, 분석하였다. 결론적으로 1000 ~ 2000 $s^{-1}$ 영역에서 진응력-진변형률 곡선을 비교하였을 때 실험 결과와 해석 결과가 잘 일치함을 알 수 있었다. 특히, 변형률 속도가 30% 증가함에 따라 최대유동응력은 17%증가, 변형률은 20% 증가함을 확인하였다.

본 논문에서는, 고 변형률 속도에서의 알루미늄 합금의 압축 변형거동을 홉킨슨 압력봉 시험, SHPB 방법을 통해 연구하였다. 이와 함께 음향방출기법이 사용되었고, 웨이브 가이드선을 통해 시편에 연결된 AE 센서를 이용하여 충격 변형시 검출되는 AE 신호를 실시간으로 검출하였다. 검출된 AE 신호를 통해 진폭, 에너지 및 최대 주파수 특성을 분석하였다. 또한 손상 기구에 따른 음향방출신호의 특성을 분석하기 위하여 시험 수행 후 충돌 시험편 표면과 측면을 관찰하였다. 변형률이 높아질수록 AE 진폭과 AE 누적에너지는 증가하였고, AE 최대 주파수는 감소하였다. 각 신호의 특성은 재료의 손상 기구와 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 확인되었다.

This paper studies on the dynamic properties of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. After forming the four different micro structures(equiaxed, lamellar, and 2 bimodals) through heat treatments, static and dynamic properties of each structure were investigated quantitatively. Dynamic behaviors of the alloy are observed by the compressive split Hopkinson pressure bar(SHPB) tests. In additon, parameters of Johnson-Cook equation were determined from the SHPB test results. In order to verify the suitability of the parameters, high velocity impact tests were performed and the results were compared with the numerical analysis results. Although the flow stress and the fracture strain of the bimodal structures were higher than those of the equiaxed structure at the static tests, the superior dynamic properties were observed at the equiaxed structure due to the effects of higher maximum flow stress and fracture strain. From the numerical analysis, J-C parameters which are determined on this study describe well the dynamic behavior of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. Experimental and analysis results are consistent with ${\pm}5%$ of an average error.

Vacuum interrupters in order to be used in various switch-gear components such as circuit breakers, distribution switches, contactors, etc. spread the arc uniformly over the surface of the contacts. The electrodes of vacuum interrupters are made of sinter-forged Cu-Cr materials for good electrical and mechanical characteristics. Since the closing velocity is 1-2m/s and impact deformation of the electrode depends on the strain rate at that velocity, the dynamic behavior of the sinter-forged Cu-Cr is a key to investigate the impact characteristics of the electrodes. The dynamic response of the material at the high strain rate is obtained from the split Hopkinson pressure bar test using disc-type specimens. Experimental results from both quasi-static and dynamic compressive tests are Interpolated to construct the Johnson-Cook model as the constitutive relation that should be applied to simulation of the dynamic behavior of the electrodes. The impact characteristics of a vacuum interrupter are investigated with computer simulations by changing the value of five parameters such as the initial velocity of a movable electrode, the added mass of a movable electrode, the wipe spring constant, initial offset of a wipe spring and the virtual fixed spring constant.

The dynamic compressive behavior of concrete after freezing and thawing tests are investigated by using the split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) technique. The stress-strain curves of concrete under dynamic loading are measured and analyzed. The setting numbers of freeze-thaw cycles are 0, 25, 50, and 75 cycles. Test results show that the dynamic strength decreases and peak strain increases with the increasing of freeze-thaw cycles. Based on the Weibull distribution model, statistical damage constitutive model for dynamic stress-strain response of concrete after freeze-thaw cycles was proposed. At last, the fragmentation test of concrete subjected to dynamic loading and freeze-thaw cycles is carried out using sieving statistics. The distributions of the fragment sizes are analyzed based on fractal theory. The fractal dimensions of concrete increase with the increasing of both freeze-thaw cycle and strain rate. The relations among the fractal dimension, strain rates and freeze-thawing cycles are developed.

A compressive split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) technique is used to investigate the dynamic behavior of SM45C at high temperature. A radiant heater, which consists of one ellipsoidal reflector and one halogen lamp, is used to heat the specimen. Specimens are tested from $600^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$ at intervals of $100^{\circ}C$ at a strain-rate ranging from 1100/s to 1150/s. A critical phenomenon occurs between $700^{\circ}C$ and $750^{\circ}C$ in SM45C. This phenomenon results in the drastic drop in a flow stress. In a modified Johnson-Cook constitutive equation, a reducer function is used to take into account for the effect of the drastic drop in a flow stress. A reducer function, which is dependant on the temperature as well as the strain, is introduced and the parameters of the modified Johnson-Cook constitutive equation are determined from test results.

The Hydraulically driven test system and ${\Phi}100mm$ split Hopkinson pressure bar(SHPB) test device were employed to research the quasi-static and dynamic mechanical properties of concrete specimens which has been immersed for 60 days in sodium sulfate (group S1) and sodium chloride (group S2) solution, the evolution of their mass during corrosive period was explored at the same time, and the mechanism of performances lost was analyzed from the microscopic level by using scanning electron microscope. Results of the experimental indicated that: their law of mass both presents the trend of continuous rising during corrosive period, and it increases rapidly on the early days, the mass growth of group S1 and group S2 in first 7 days are 76.78% and 82.82% of their total increment respectively; during the corrosive period, the quasi-static compressive strength of specimens in two groups are significantly decreased, both of which present the trend of increase first and then decrease, the maximum growth rate of group S1 and group S2 are 7.52% and 12.71% respectively, but they are only 76.23% and 82.84% of specimens which under normal environment (group N) on day 60; after immersed for 60 days, there were different decrease to dynamic compressive strength and specific energy absorption, and so as their strain rate sensitivities. So the high salinity environment has a significant effect of weaken the quasi-static and dynamic mechanical performance of concrete.

Zr-based amorphous alloy matrix composites reinforced with stainless steel (STS) and tantalum continuous fibers were fabricated without pores or defects by a liquid pressing process, and their quasi-static and dynamic deformation behaviors were investigated by using a universal testing machine and a Split Hopkinson pressure bar, respectively. The quasi-static compressive test results indicated that the fiberreinforced composites showed amaximum strength of about 1050~1300 MPa, and its strength maintained over 700 MPa until reaching astrain of 40%. Under dynamic loading, the maximum stresses of the composites were considerably higher than those under quasi-static loading because of the strain-rate hardening effect, whereas the fracture strains were considerably lower than those under quasi-static loading because of the decreased resistance to fracture. The STS-fiber-reinforced composite showed a greater compressive strength and ductility under dynamic loading than the tantalum-fiber-reinforced composite because of the excellent resistance to fracture of STS fibers.

고 변형률 속도에 대한 소재의 동적 압축 물성은 고속 충돌 및 고속 성형 등 동적 환경에서의 유한요소 해석의 신뢰성 향상을 위해 필수적이다. 일반적으로 고 변형률 속도에 대한 소재의 동적 압축 물성은 SHPB(Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar) 장비를 통해 획득 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 최근 무인 항공기에 확대 적용되고 있는 Woven type CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic) 소재에 대한 충돌 해석에 대응하기 위해 SHPB 장비를 활용하여 해당 소재의 동적 압축 물성을 획득하였다. 또한 Pulse shaper를 활용하여, Elastic-brittle 특성을 지니는 소재에 대한 일정한 변형률 속도 확보 및 실험 데이터에 대한 신뢰도를 향상시켰다. CFRP 소재의 경우 방향 별 기계적 물성이 다른 이방성 소재이므로 두께 방향과 면내 방향 시편을 제작하여 각각 실험을 수행하였다. SHPB 실험 결과 면내 방향 시편의 경우 일정한 변형률 속도 영역에 도달하기 전, 시편의 파단이 발생하여 데이터의 재현성 및 신뢰성 확보에 어려움이 있는 반면, 두께 방향의 시편의 경우 시편 전·후면 응력일치도가 우수하여 데이터 신뢰도가 높으며, 일정한 변형률 속도 영역을 획득할 수 있다. LS-dyna를 활용한 유한요소해석을 통해, 압력봉으로부터 측정되는 데이터는 시편과 압력봉의 변형에 의해 변형률이 과도하게 예측되는 것을 확인하였다.
