Aluminum foam-filled extrusions subjected to oblique loading: experimental and numerical study

The behavior of empty and foam-filled square thin-walled aluminum columns in alloy AA6060 subjected to quasi-static oblique loading was examined. Previous studies have shown that by introducing a load angle, the energy absorption decreases drastically compared to axial loading. One of the main objectives of the present investigation was to study the effect of introducing aluminum foam filler on the energy absorption. The square columns were clamped at one end and oblique load conditions were realized at the other end by applying a force with different angles to the centerline of the column. An experimental program was carried out where the main parameters were load angle, foam density and heat treatment of the extrusion material. Additionally, numerical analyses of the experiments were performed, mainly to verify a numerical model of the obliquely loaded foam-filled columns. The foam was modeled with the foam model of Deshpande and Fleck, together with a simple fracture criterion, which previously has been implemented as a user subroutine in LS-DYNA. The study shows that high-density aluminum foam filler increases the energy absorption considerably, but the specific energy absorption is lowered compared to the empty cross sections. Furthermore, the numerical analyses were able to predict the experimental results with reasonable accuracy.     

A theoretical analysis for the dynamic axial crushing behaviour of aluminium foam-filled hat sections

A theoretical analysis was performed to predict the dynamic axial crushing behaviour of aluminium foam-filled top hat and double hat sections made from mild steel material. The deformation mode from the test results was used to create a deformation model for the theoretical analysis. According to the energy method and the superfolding element theory, the mean dynamic crushing loads of the aluminium foam-filled hat sections and the interactive effect between the aluminium foam and hat sections were theoretically predicted. The mean dynamic crushing loads and the interactive effect predicted by this theoretical analysis were in good agreement with the experimental results. The theoretical prediction results showed that the interactive effect was mainly from the aluminium foam.     

软质聚氨酯泡沫的动态压缩力学性能和本构模型

采用Instron 9350落锤试验机研究了中低应变率下软质聚氨酯泡沫的动态压缩力学性能,分析了其应力-应变响应特征和应变率敏感性,讨论了应变率对材料应变率敏感性指数和能量吸收特性的影响,并基于实验结果建立了可准确描述其压缩力学响应的率相关本构模型。结果表明,软质聚氨酯泡沫的静动态压缩应力-应变响应具有典型的三阶段特征,且呈现出明显的应变率强化效应。准静态加载下,材料具有较高的吸能效率但能量吸收值较小,应变率对最大吸能效率和比吸能的影响较小;动态加载下,随着应变率的增加,最大吸能效率显著减小而比吸能明显增大。考虑应变率影响的修正Sherwood-Frost模型和修正Avalle模型都能够很好地表征软质聚氨酯泡沫的静动态压缩应力-应变响应,但修正Avalle模型的参数较少,更便于工程应用。研究结果可为软质聚氨酯泡沫抗冲击结构的设计和优化提供指导。

Design optimization of the S-frame to improve crashworthiness

In this paper, the S-frames, the front side rail structures of automobile, were investigated for crashworthihess. Various cross-sections including regular polygon, nonconvex polygon and multi-cell with inner stiffener sections were investigated in terms of energy absorption of S-frames. It was determined through extensive numerical simulation that a multi-celI S-frame with double vertical internal stiffeners can absorb more energy than the other configurations. Shape optimization was also carried out to improve energy absorption of the S-frame with a rectangular section. The center composite design of experiment and the sequential response surface method （SRSM） were adopted to construct the approximate design sub-problem, which was then solved by the feasible direction method. An innovative double S- frame was obtained from the optimal result. The optimum configuration of the S-frame was crushed numerically and more plastic hinges as well as shear zones were observed during the crush process. The energy absorption efficiency of the structure with the optimal configuration was improved compared to the initial configuration.

Crashworthiness analysis and optimization of fourier varying section tubes

Thin-walled structures are widely used as energy absorption devices for their proven advantages on lightweight and crashworthiness. However, a majority of studies have being focus on exploring separately the crashworthiness of the thin-walled structure with a specific geometric section, such as circular, square, hexagon, octagon etc., and little research has investigated the relationship of crashworthiness among thin-walled structures with different sections systematically. This paper utilizes Fourier series expansion to generate a series of novel sectional configurations, namely Fourier varying sectional tubes (FVSTs), to look into their advantages of crashworthiness, thereby developing some FVSTs with highest possible energy absorption capacity. Based on the validated finite element (FE) models, parametric analysis is conducted to investigate the effects of cross-sectional configuration, perimeter and thickness of FVSTs on collapse mode and energy absorption. The results showed that the collapse modes of FVSTs are fairly sensitive to cross-sectional configuration, perimeter and wall thickness. Of these FVSTs generated, the highest specific energy absorption (SEA) increases 77.54% by increasing perimeter and 69.73% by decreasing wall thickness. Finally, a discrete optimization based on the orthogonal arrays is conducted to obtain the optimal FVST for maximizing SEA under the constraint of the initial peak crushing force (IPCF). The optimized FVSTs are of superior crashworthiness and great potential as an energy absorber.     

Study on the Collapse of Pin-Reinforced Foam Sandwich Panel Cores

New fabrication technologies now allow for hybrid sandwich structures, known as X-core, to be manufactured. The X-core panels consist of a pin reinforced polymer foam core with carbon fiber face sheets. Carbon fiber or metallic (Titanium/Steel) pins are inserted into the foam core in the out-of-plane direction and extend from face sheet to face sheet. The through thickness three-point simply supported bending behavior of these panels is used to evaluate the collapse characteristics of the panels. Explicit experimental observations are used to calibrate analytical energy balance models describing the panel collapse as a function of geometry and properties. The mechanical response of X-core sandwich panels is compared to current sandwich materials for material selection.

Biaxial crushing of honeycombs: —Part 1: Experiments

The in-plane compression and crushing of honeycombs is known to be closely related to the crushing behavior of the broader class of space filling cellular solids. Previously, the authors conducted an extensive study of uniaxial crushing of a polycarbonate honeycomb with circular cells. In this paper the same honeycomb is crushed biaxially. The crushing was performed in a custom testing facility between rigid platens which can be moved independently in two orthogonal directions. The facility allows testing at various biaxiality ratios and volume reductions as high as 95%. The facility was used to conduct several series of biaxial crushing experiments on nearly square honeycomb specimens (18×21 cells) . In each experiment we recorded the true stress–displacement responses in the x- and y-directions as well as full field views of the deformation using a video camera. Biaxial crushing is quite complex and the prevalent mechanisms of collapse depend on the biaxiality ratio (γ) . As is the case in uniaxial crushing, the onset of collapse involves localized instabilities, however, the extent of localized deformation varies with γ. The energy absorption capacity of the material depends on γ. The highest energy is required when the specimen is crushed at the same rates in the two directions.     

冲击载荷下径向密度排布对泡沫金属力学性能影响的研究

参照层状密度梯度泡沫模型实现方法,利用3D-Voronoi技术设计了新型径向密度梯度泡沫模型,并用有限元软件,对它在不同冲击载荷下的力学行为进行数值模拟。研究冲击速度、密度梯度和平均相对密度对金属泡沫冲击端、支撑端应力和能量吸收能力的影响,发现:径向正梯度泡沫与层状正、负梯度泡沫相比,其两端的应力值均较小,可同时保护冲击端、支撑端物体;径向负梯度泡沫两端应力变化幅度较小,能够保证物体受力稳定;几种泡沫金属的能量吸收能力在不同冲击速度下发生交替变化。对于径向梯度泡沫,能量吸收能力对密度梯度大小不敏感,对梯度方向敏感,径向负梯度泡沫的能量吸收能力始终大于径向正梯度泡沫;平均相对密度越大,径向正、负梯度泡沫两端应力越大、吸能效果越好。     

Propagation of compaction waves in metal foams exhibiting strain hardening

One-dimensional models for compaction of cellular materials exhibiting strain hardening are proposed for two different impact scenarios. The models reveal the characteristic features of deformation under the condition of decreasing velocity during the impact event. It was established that an unloading plastic wave of strong discontinuity propagates in the foam and it has a significant dynamic effect on the foam compaction and energy absorption. The proposed models are based on the actual experimentally derived stress strain curves. The compaction mechanism in three aluminium based foam materials, two of them with relatively low density – Alporas and Cymat with 9% and 9.3% relative density, respectively and a higher density Cymat foam with 21% relative density, is analysed. Numerical simulations were carried out to verify the proposed models.The predictions of the proposed models are compared with published analytical models of compaction of cellular materials which assume a predefined densification strain. It is shown that the approximation of a cellular material with significant strain hardening by the Rigid Perfectly-Plastic-Locking (RPPL) model can lead to an overestimation of the energy absorption capacity for the observed stroke due to the non-uniform strains along the compacted zone of the actual material in contrast to the predefined constant densification strain in the RPPL model. The assumption of a constant densification strain leads also to an overestimation of the maximum stress, which occurs under impact.     

基于广义非线性统一强度理论的隧道塌落拱分析

基于广义非线性统一强度的剪切破坏理论,在平面应变状态下,根据极限上限定理和隧道顶部的围岩塌落机制,在耗散能中引入了包含曲线型破裂面方程的目标函数,建立了围岩中任意断面的隧道顶部围岩的塌落机制。基于塑性位势理论,考虑塑性应变增量与塑性势函数的应力梯度成正比,由此得出了在速度间断线上任意点内能的耗散率;再运用虚功原理,建立内能耗散率和外力做功相等的关系式,从而通过变分原理得出了隧道顶部塌落面的解析表达式,由该表达式计算出隧道顶部塌落面的形状。以圆形断面隧道为例,对影响塌落拱形状的隧道半径和中间主剪应力系数等相关参数进行了讨论分析。由此得出:在平面应变状态下,隧道顶部围岩塌落体的宽度和高度随着中间主剪应力系数的不断增大而减小;塌落面的高度随着广义非线性统一强度参数的不断增大而增大,而塌落面的宽度则不断减小;塌落宽度和塌落高度随隧道半径的增大而增大。

Development of slow disturbances in a hypersonic boundary layer

The mechanisms of development of slow time-dependent disturbances in the wall region of a hypersonic boundary layer are established and a diagram of the disturbed flow patterns is plotted; the corresponding nonlinear boundary value problem is formulated for each of these regimes. It is shown that the main factors that form the disturbed flow are the gas enthalpy near the body surface, the local viscous-inviscid interaction level, and the type, either subsonic or supersonic, of the boundary layer as a whole. Numerical and analytical solutions are obtained in the linear approximation. It is established that enhancement of the local viscous-inviscid interaction or an increased role for the main supersonic region of the boundary layer makes the disturbed flow by and large “supersonic”: the upstream propagation of the disturbances becomes weaker, while their downstream growth is amplified. Contrariwise, local viscous-inviscid interaction attenuation or an increased role for the main subsonic region of the boundary layer has the opposite effect. Surface cooling favors an increased effect of the main region of the boundary layer while heating favors an increased wall region effect. It is also found that in the regimes considered disturbances travel from the turbulent flow region downstream of the disturbed region under consideration counter to the oncoming flow, which may be of considerable significance in constructing the nonlinear stability theory.     

贵州关岭大寨崩滑碎屑流灾害初步研究

2010年6月28日,贵州省关岭县岗乌镇大寨村发生特大型崩滑碎屑(石)流灾害,造成99人死亡或失踪。通过现场考察崩滑区的地质环境与斜坡岩体结构,认为斜坡体由似"干砌块石结构"的裂隙化岩体组成是发生崩溃式破坏的主要内在原因。超常暴雨(过程雨量237mm)条件下斜坡岩体后缘裂缝充水形成持续的"水楔作用"是斜坡岩体松动、倾倒垮塌的主要外部引发因素。碎屑(石)流块度的空间分布具有从源头向沟口逐次减小,碎屑(石)流运动冲击高度逐步降低,冲击速度逐步减小,并显示4个能级4个冲程的特点。根据动势能守恒定律,计算了每个冲程的最大速度,得出第1冲程为高速崩滑,其它冲程属于碎屑(石)流动冲击。未发现区域天然地震、光照水库诱发地震与外围历史采矿活动与本次事件相关的直接证据。由于滑坡后缘仍存在不稳定岩体,碎屑(石)流堆积体上多处分布直径3~5m的堰塞塘,说明碎屑(石)空隙的排泄能力不足,在未来暴雨条件下引发新的崩滑或形成沟谷型泥石流的可能性是存在的。
