The Acceleration Severity Index in the impact of a vehicle against permanent road equipment support structures

The acceleration Severity Index (ASI), described in European Standard EN12767 (The passive safety of support structures for road equipment. Requirements, classification and the test method) is regarded as the most important indicator of impact on the occupants. The requirements for experiments are described, having in mind that the results depend on many factors. One of them is the selection of a vehicle to be used in the crash test. To perform numerical vehicle crash simulation, the finite-element models of permanent road equipment support structures were developed using the LS Dyna software available. To examine the response of the vehicle upon the impact, the acceleration severity index curves were calculated and visualised in Matlab.     

Preparation,Crystal Structure,and Thermal Decomposition of the Intriguing Five‐coordinated Compound [Cu(IMI)4Cl]Cl (IMI = Imidazole)

The intriguing multi‐ligand compound [Cu(IMI)₄Cl]Cl ( 1 ) with the ligand imidazole (IMI) was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and FT‐IR spectroscopy. The crystal structure was determined by X‐ray single crystal diffraction and the crystallographic data showed that the compound belongs to the monoclinic P2₁/n space group [α = 8.847(2) Å, b = 13.210(3) Å, c = 13.870(3) Å, and β = 90.164(3)°]. Furthermore, the Cu^II ion is five‐coordinated by four nitrogen atoms from four imidazole ligands and a chlorine atom. The thermal decomposition mechanism was determined based on differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric (TG‐DTG) analysis. The non‐isothermal kinetics parameters were calculated by the Kissinger's method and Ozawa's method, respectively. The energy of combustion, enthalpy of formation, critical temperature of thermal explosion, entropy of activation (ΔS^≠), enthalpy of activation (ΔH^≠), and free energy of activation (ΔG^≠) were measured and calculated.     

Impact resistance analysis of flexible fabric by 3D shape of impact basin in low-speed impact test

Hopkinson non-penetrating low-speed impact test was carried out on Kevlar flexible fabrics. The impact basin was formed by the clay on the back of the fabric, and the ultimate deformation of the fabric was recorded completely. The 3D shape of the clay impact basin was measured by fringe projection profilometry and converted into the impact basin volume. At the same time, the relationship between the indentation volume and the deformation energy of the clay was calibrated using the clay intrusion test. The clay impact basin volume is then converted into the residual energy of the flexible fabric subjected to the low-speed impact, and a new index of the impact basin volume is established to evaluate the energy absorption efficiency of fabric under the low-speed impact. Finally, combined with the deformation of single-layer fabric, the stress wave propagation in the impact deformation process of fabric is discussed, which is helpful to understand the impact energy absorption mechanism of flexible fabric.     

Numerical and empirical modeling of peak deceleration and stress analysis of polyurethane elastomer under impact loading test

In this work, we present the modeling of the peak deceleration (PD) using data of the experimental drop test. Specimens with different thicknesses and areas tested in the drop test device which has adaptable height and weight. In the empirical modeling of the PD, the thickness, area, drop mass and drop height considered as separable functions. An analytical model and Neural Network (NN) was used as the empirical models. Further, the stress on the material was calculated using differential equations and the Finite Element Method (FEM). The Obtained PD from the experimental test, analytical and NN models was converted to the stress on the material using a derived differential equation. Finally, the best model for analyzing the PD and Stress on the material was presented.     

Low velocity impact response of flax/polypropylene hybrid roving based woven fabric composites: Where does it stand with respect to GRPC?

Flax-PP based thermally bonded roving (TBR) has a unique structure where the flax fibres remain twist-free and fully aligned along the roving axis. The present study describes an experimental investigation on the low velocity impact (LVI) behaviour of the TBR based woven fabric composites and compares the same with plain woven glass fabric reinforced PP composites (GRPC). Two different fabric architectures namely plain woven (PW) and unidirectional (UD) are fabricated using flax/PP based TBR. These TBR based woven fabrics and the glass fabric/PP sheets are consolidated in a compression moulding machine and the resultant composite-laminates are tested for their LVI behaviour. The impact test results revealed that the glass/PP composites absorb more energy and exhibit a higher peak load than both TBR based PW and UD fabric composites. However, the specific load and energy of all flax/PP composites are higher than the glass/PP composite. The damage tolerance of all composite laminates are evaluated by comparing their flexural strength before and after the impact. It is observed that the proportionate loss in flexural strength due to impact thrust is larger in case of glass/PP composites than all flax-PP composites.     

Comparison of low-velocity impact damage in thermoplastic and thermoset composites by non-destructive three-dimensional X-ray microscope

This paper presents a method for the non-destructive inspection and quantitative comparison of low-velocity impact damage in thermoplastic and thermoset composites. X-ray microscope (XRM) computed tomography is used to analyse the three-dimensional internal damage in carbon fibre/poly-ether-ether-ketone (AS4/PEEK) and carbon fibre/epoxy (CCF300/Epoxy) laminates. With the materials and testing conditions used, it was shown that thermoplastic composites have better interlaminar and intralaminar properties, and the following quantitative conclusions were drawn. Under the same impact energy, the maximum contact force of AS4/PEEK laminate was approximately twice that of CCF300/Epoxy laminate. Dissection of the reconstructed XRM volume along a characteristic slicing surface showed that AS4/PEEK had less internal damage than CCF300/epoxy. When the impact energy was 15 J, the XRM results showed that the sum of delamination areas between each ply in AS4/PEEK was only 9% of that in CCF300/Epoxy, whereas the ultrasonic C-scan results showed that the total delamination area of AS4/PEEK was 54.78% of that of CCF300/Epoxy.
