Investigation on mechanism of plastic deformation by digital speckle pattern interferometry

An experimental scheme of digital speckle pattern interferometry using two electromagnetic shutters and a three-frame color image board is presented to measure two in-plane components of incremental displacement field of diffuse objects. The deformation of the entire process from initial elastic deformation to fracture can be observed by using a Magneto Optical (MO) disk that has enough memory to record the image data of the entire process. By this system, some tensile experiments are achieved to investigate the mechanism of plastic deformation. The experimental results show that plastic deformation of tensile deformation is nonuniform. The material deforms in the distribution of domains. In the domains, the main deformation is uniform shear and rotation. At the boundary of the domains, the deformation is very large normal strain. With load, both the range and mode of domains are changing. At the end of plastic deformation, only two domains become dominant, and fracture happens at the boundary of the two domains.     

Impact-induced transient deformation analysis by means of digital speckle pattern interferometry

Transient in-plane displacements generated in a metal plate subjected to impact loading are measured using a pulsed digital speckle pattern interferometry system. Two separated speckle patterns produced by a ruby laser that freezes the object motion are recorded using a CCD camera and stored in a frame grabber. Transient displacements are evaluated by digital analysis of the fringes generated by the subtraction of these speckle patterns. The computer used for image processing is also utilized to control image acquisition and to synchronize the laser pulses to the CCD camera and the object position. Experimental results are compared with numerical calculations obtained using the finite-element method.     

An experimental study of the large deformation of plastic hinges

Recent applications of structural plasticity to areas such as vehicle crashworthiness has led to interest in the large deformation plastic collapse of general frames. Even when displacements are comparable to the original structural dimensions, the plasticity is confined to localized regions or “hinges”. This paper reports an experimental study of the behavior of such hinges in thin walled structural members. Due to local deformation the load carrying capacity of the hinge significantly decreases at large rotations. In a companion paper [4] a structural constitutive theory is proposed to account for this behavior. Numerical data for this theory is obtained in the present paper. Finally test results are given for a large deformation combined loading test designed to validate the theory of [4]. The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions.     

Residual stress determination using blind-hole drilling and digital speckle pattern interferometry with automated data processing

A combined system of blind-hole drilling and digital speckle pattern interferometry that performs automated data analysis is used to determine the magnitude of the residual stress induced in an aluminum plate subjected to uniaxial tension. The authors perform a finite element analysis of the blind-hole drilling process to adjust the analytical model commonly used for residual stress determination. The relieved displacement field due to the introduction of the blind hole is determined by the evaluation of the optical phase distribution. Using more than 300 values of this displacement field, the magnitude of the residual stress is determined and compared with the applied stress value.

On the axial propagation of kink bands in fiber composites : Part i experiments

In many fiber composites, longitudinal compressive failure leads to the formation of kink bands. It has been found that these kink bands, once formed, can be made to propagate (broaden) in a steady-state manner at a constant stress level called the propagation stress (σ_P) . This is a characteristic stress of the material which, for the AS4⧹PEEK composite used in the study reported here, is approximately 40% of its compressive strength. This phenomenon is investigated experimentally using a special confining set-up that allows direct observation of the propagation process. For the composite studied, the kink bands have a repeatable inclination (β) of approximately 15°, and the fibers within the bands are rotated to about 30° in the absence of a load. When loaded to σ_P, however, they are found to rotate further to 40°, that is, substantially greater than the 2β reported elsewhere. The mechanism of propagation is found to be a bend-break-rotate sequence undergone by short segments of fibers at the edge of the kink band. It is well known that polymeric matrix composites such as the one used in this study exhibit rate-dependent behavior. Experimental results are presented which show that the kink band propagation stress is also rate dependent.     

On the axial propagation of kink bands in fiber composites : Part ii analysis

A new micromechanical model is presented to simulate the steady-state axial propagation of kink bands investigated experimentally in the accompanying paper (Part I) . The fibers are in a hexagonal array and are assumed to be isotropic and linearly elastic, while the matrix is modeled as an elastic-powerlaw viscoplastic solid. Matrix properties for the model are determined from shear tests on the composite and compression tests on neat PEEK. The model is used to predict the propagation stress (σ_P) of the AS4⧹PEEK composite and to investigate the sensitivity of σ_P to band inclination, matrix properties, and loading rate. A simple model recently reported in the literature is calibrated to the current material system and compared with the present experimental data and model predictions. The micromechanical model is found to predict the propagation stress reasonably well and to capture the rate dependence of the composite. The simple model is found to capture the trends of the behavior.     

An experimental study of the deformation fields around a propagating crack tip

Digital image processing was used to obtain the deformation fields around a propagating crack tip from photographic films recorded by a high-speed Cranz-Schardin camera. The in-plane displacements and strains determined from the process were then used to compute the dynamic stress intensity factor and the remote stress component parallel to the crack face.K dominance is discussed using the experimental data. Surface roughness of the fractured surface is also examined.     

高原环境爆炸冲击波传播特性的实验研究

在评估弹药在高原的爆炸威力时,需要考虑高海拔条件对炸药爆炸冲击波参数的影响。为研究高海拔低气压条件下的冲击波传播规律,开展了模拟海拔高度h=500, 2 500, 4 500 m等3种气压条件下的爆炸冲击波测试实验。结果表明,当环境气压每下降20%时,冲击波超压、比冲量和到达时间平均降低约9%、10%和6%。将使用Sachs因子修正后的计算结果与测试数据进行对比分析,发现该方法能较好地预测不同环境条件下的爆炸冲击波参数。进一步分析了环境温度的影响,发现初始温度升高会使到达时间提前,本文实验的温度条件对超压和比冲量的影响并不显著。该研究结果对战斗部在高海拔的爆炸威力评估具有参考意义。     

An experimental study of cyclic deformation of extruded AZ61A magnesium alloy

Thin-walled tubular specimens were employed to study the cyclic deformation of extruded AZ61A magnesium alloy. Experiments were conducted under fully reversed strain-controlled tension-compression, torsion, and combined axial-torsion in ambient air. Mechanical twinning was found to significantly influence the inelastic deformation of the material. Cyclic hardening was observed at all the strain amplitudes under investigation. For tension-compression at strain amplitudes higher than 0.5%, the stress-strain hysteresis loop was asymmetric with a positive mean stress. This was associated with mechanical twinning in the compression phase and detwinning in the subsequent tension phase. Under cyclic torsion, the stress-strain hysteresis loops were symmetric although mechanical twinning was observed at high shear strain amplitudes. When the material was subjected to combined axial-torsion loading, the alternative occurrence of twinning and detwinning processes under axial stress resulted in asymmetric shear stress-shear strain hysteresis loops. Nonproportional hardening was not observed due to limited number of slip systems and the formation of mechanical twins. Microstructures after the stabilization of cyclic deformation were observed and the dominant mechanisms governing cyclic deformation were discussed. Existing cyclic plasticity models were discussed in light of their capabilities for modeling the observed cyclic deformation of the magnesium alloy.     

An experimental study on grain deformation and interactions in an Al-0.5%Mg multicrystal

Heterogeneous plastic deformation behavior of a coarse-grained Al-0.5%Mg multicrystal was investigated experimentally at the individual grain level. A flat uniaxial tensile specimen consisting of a single layer of millimeter-sized grains was deformed quasi-statically up to an axial strain of 15% at room temperature. The initial local crystallographic orientations of the grains and their evolutions after 5, 12, and 15% plastic strains were measured by electron backscattered diffraction pattern analysis in a scanning electron microscope. The local in-plane plastic strains and rigid body rotations of the grains were measured by correlation of digital optical video images of the specimen surface acquired during the tensile test. It is found that both intergranular and intragranular plastic deformation fields in the aluminum multicrystal specimen under uniaxial tension are highly heterogeneous. Single or double sets of slip-plane traces were predominantly observed on the electro-polished surfaces of the millimeter-sized grains after deformation. The active slip systems associated with these observed slip-plane traces were identified based on the grain orientation after deformation, the Schmid factor, and grain interactions in terms of the slip-plane trace morphology at grain boundaries. It is found that the aluminum multicrystal obeys neither the Sachs nor the Taylor polycrystal deformation models but deforms heterogeneously to favor easy slip transmission and accommodation among the grains.     

An experimental study of the effects of prestrain on the propagation of small disturbances in neoprene filaments

A small disturbance was caused to propagate along a long, slender, prestrained Neoprene filament. The particle velocity of the pulse was measured at two stations along the length of the filament by means of electromagnetic transducers which operate on the Faraday principle. Particle velocity vs. time data were obtained from oscilloscope photographs of the transducer outputs for each level of prestrain from 0 percent up to 400 percent engineering strain. The two particle-velocity records for each level of prestrain were subjected to linear viscoelastic analysis which employed the use of numerical Fourier transforms of the particle-velocity records. Computer programs were written which allowed computation of the numerical transforms and from them the computation of the phase velocity and attenuation coefficients of the material over the narrow frequency bandwidth of the Fourier spectra of the particlevelocity pulses. Data analysis revealed that, at a given frequency, the phase velocity increases significantly and that the attenuation coefficient decreases significantly with an increase in prestrain level over the range of prestrains of the tests. These material properties, that of a decreasing attenuation and an increasing phase velocity with increasing prestrain, are suggestive of the open possibility of the ability of the material to develop and support a shock wave for a large-amplitude disturbance.     

An experimental study of inhomogeneous cyclic plastic deformation of 1045 steel under multiaxial cyclic loading

An experimental study was conducted on the inhomogeneous cyclic plastic deformation of 1045 steel under multiaxial cyclic loading. Thin-walled tubular specimens were used and small strain gages were bonded on the specimen surface to characterize the local deformation. The controlled loading paths included cyclic tension–compression, cyclic torsion, proportional axial-torsion, 90°-out-of-phase axial-torsion, and fully reversed torsion with a constant axial stress. The maximum stress in each experiment was lower than the lower yield stress of the material. It was found that the cyclic plastic deformation within the gage section of the specimen under multiaxial stress state followed the three-stage process that was observed from uniaxial loading, namely, incubation, propagation, and saturation. The plastic deformation was significantly inhomogeneous during the propagation stage, and the inhomogeneity continued through the saturation stage. The duration of each stage and the saturated strains were dependent on the cyclic stress amplitude and the loading path. Multiaxial stress state reduced the incubation stage. With identical equivalent stress magnitude, the nonproportional loading path resulted in the shortest incubation and propagation stages, and the saturated equivalent plastic strain magnitude was the smallest. Although the deformation over the gage section was inhomogeneous, the plastic deformation in a given local area was found to be practically isotropic.     

An experimental study on the two-dimensional opposed wall jet in a turbulent boundary layer: Change in the flow pattern with velocity ratio

Results of the measurement of flow properties in a two-dimensional turbulent wall jet which is injected into the turbulent boundary layer in the direction opposite to that of the boundary layer flow are presented by varying the ratio of the jet issuing velocity to the mainstream velocity . This flow includes the flow separation and the recirculating flow, and so it requires the magnitude and direction of instantaneous velocity be measured. In the present work, a tandem hot-wire probe is manufactured and its characteristics are examined experimentally. With the use of this probe the change in the penetration length of the jet with the velocity ratio is investigated. It is clarified that two regimes of flow patterns exist: in the low velocity ratio the penetration length of the jet changes little with , and in the high velocity ratio it goes far from the nozzle with increasing . Streamlines, turbulence intensity contours and static pressure contours are presented in the two typical velocity ratios corresponding to each of two flow patterns, and they are compared.List of symbols b ₀ nozzle width (Fig. 1) - , e mean and fluctuating output voltages of hot-wire anemometer - p, p mean static pressure, p = p – p _o - p ₀ static pressure in undisturbed mainstream - p _w , p _w mean wall pressure, p _w = p _w – p _o - U ₀ mainstream velocity - U _j jet velocity at the nozzle exit - , u mean and fluctuating velocity components in x-direction - u _e effective cooling velocity - x distance along the wall from nozzle exit - x _pmax, x _pmin positions where the wall pressure has maximum and minimum values respectively - x _s penetration length of jet - y distance from the wall - forward flow fraction - ₁, ₂ yaw and pitch angles of flow direction (Fig. 4) - velocity ratio, = U _j /U _o - density of the fluid - nondimensional stream function The authors wish to express their appreciation to Prof. Toshio Tanaka of Gifu University for his advice in the course of the experiment.

Uniaxial experimental study of the acoustic emission and deformation behavior of composite rock based on 3D digital image correlation (DIC)

In this paper, uniaxial compression tests were carried out on a series of composite rock specimens with different dip angles, which were made from two types of rock-like material with different strength. The acoustic emission technique was used to monitor the acoustic signal characteristics of composite rock specimens during the entire loading process. At the same time, an optical non-contact 3 D digital image correlation technique was used to study the evolution of axial strain field and the maximal strain field before and after the peak strength at different stress levels during the loading process. The effect of bedding plane inclination on the deformation and strength during uniaxial loading was analyzed. The methods of solving the elastic constants of hard and weak rock were described. The damage evolution process, deformation and failure mechanism, and failure mode during uniaxial loading were fully determined. The experimental results show that the θ = 0?–45?specimens had obvious plastic deformation during loading, and the brittleness of the θ = 60?–90?specimens gradually increased during the loading process. When the anisotropic angle θincreased from 0?to 90?, the peak strength, peak strain,and apparent elastic modulus all decreased initially and then increased. The failure mode of the composite rock specimen during uniaxial loading can be divided into three categories:tensile fracture across the discontinuities(θ = 0?–30?), slid-ing failure along the discontinuities(θ = 45?–75?), and tensile-split along the discontinuities(θ = 90?). The axial strain of the weak and hard rock layers in the composite rock specimen during the loading process was significantly different from that of the θ = 0?–45?specimens and was almost the same as that of the θ = 60?–90?specimens. As for the strain localization highlighted in the maximum principal strain field, the θ = 0?–30?specimens appeared in the rock matrix approximately parallel to the loading direction,while in the θ = 45?–90?specimens it appeared at the hard and weak rock layer interface.     

An experimental study of the effect of hardening on plastic deformation at notch tips in metallic single crystals

Experiments to measure the effect of hardening on the plastic deformation field near a notch tip in metallic single crystals were conducted. The specimens were cut from pure Cu and a CuBe alloy (with 1.8-2.0 wt% Be) FCC single crystals. The Cu-2.0wt%Be alloy was selected because its initial hardness and rate of hardening can be modified by heat treatment. The Vickers hardness of the specimens ranged from 87 to , while the hardening exponents ranged between 10 and 4.5. The experimental results were compared to analytical and numerical solutions from the literature. This comparison shows that the inclusion of elastic regions in the analytical solutions and anisotropic hardening in the numerical solutions results in better agreement with the experiments.     

Numerical modeling of the thermomechanical behavior of steels with allowance for the propagation of Luders bands

A thermomechanical model based on physical representations of the motion of dislocation continuum and a model for the initiation and propagation of plastic shear are proposed to describe slow flows of the type of Luders bands. Two-dimensional calculations of Luders band propagation are performed for HSLA-65 steel samples under compression at various strain rates and temperatures. The calculation results are in good agreement with experimental data. __________ Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika i Tekhnicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 48, No. 5, pp. 146–155, September–October, 2007.     

An experimental investigation on cyclic plastic deformation and substructures of polycrystalline copper

Cyclic deformation under proportional and nonproportional loading of a textured copper was experimentally studied, and the results were compared with those of texture-free copper with the same grain size. The texture had a great influence on the equivalent cyclic stress–strain (CSS) curves under proportional loading but insignificant influence on the CSS curves under nonproportional loading. By comparing the slip patterns on the specimen surface and dislocation substructures under proportional and nonproportional loading, the mechanism of nonproportional hardening was discussed. The slip multiplicity inherited from originally multiple-slip oriented grains plays a minor role. Nonproportional hardening is the result of enhanced activated slip systems and more uniform activation of slip systems due to the rotation of maximum shear stress under nonproportional loading. At high strain amplitudes, cells were the primary substructures for both proportional and nonproportional loading but the diameters of the cells under nonproportional loading were smaller for similar strain magnitude. A linear relationship existed between the saturation equivalent stress magnitude and the reciprocal of the diameter of the dislocation cells. Such a relationship was independent of the loading modes and texture. The saturation stress magnitude was related to the bowing stress of screw dislocations in the interior area of dislocation cells. The mechanical response was practically recoverable either when the loading magnitude was changed from a higher value to a lower value or when the loading was changed from a nonproportional loading path to a proportional loading path. However, the dislocation substructures cannot be completely recovered.     

Cutting process of composite materials: An experimental study

This paper focuses on experimental research of milling process of the epoxide-polymer matrix composite reinforced carbon fibers (EPMC—carbon composite). An influence of two control parameters, namely feed and rotational speed, on cutting forces is investigated. The experiment is conducted on a CNC machine with feed rate ranging from 200 to 720 mm/min and rotational speed from 2000 to 8000 rpm. The experimental time series are analysed by means of the delay coordinates method in order to find stable cutting regions and to recognize the kind of behaviour. Using this information, a new model for the cutting forces is proposed that can be used to build a new regenerative vibration model for EPMC milling.
