The influence of projectile forms and oblique angles on damage formation was particularly discussed by applying different loading conditions such as multiple projectile forms and oblique angles. Additionally, the numerical simulation method was employed to provide further insight into the characteristics of damage and target responses. The Johnson-Cook(J-C)constitutive model with revised failure parameters was used to support the simulations to assess target responses and characteristics of the damage created from different impact conditions. Results show that there is a significant transition in the deformation mode as changes of the projectile form are applied. Moreover, the cracks on the back of the 2618 aluminum alloy plates impacted by the solid plate projectile and the hollow blade projectile tend to locate at different positions, which are supposed to be influenced by local bending and stretching.

For this purp...The aim of this work is to investigate the soil water budget across China by means of hydrological modeling under current and future climate conditions and to evaluate the sensitivity to soil parameters. For this purpose, observed precipitation and temperature data(1981-2010) and climate simulations(2021-2050, 2071-2100) at high resolution(about 14 km) on a large part of China are used as weather forcing. The simulated weather forcing has been bias corrected by means of the distribution derived quantile mapping method to eliminate the effects of systematic biases in current climate modeling on water cycle components. As hydrological models, two 1D models are tested: TERRA-ML and HELP. Concerning soil properties, two datasets, provided respectively by Food and Agriculture Organization and U.S. Department of Agriculture, are separately tested. The combination of two hydrological models, two soil parameter datasets and three weather forcing inputs(observations, raw and bias corrected climate simulations) results in ?ve different simulation chains.The study highlights how the choice of some approaches or soil parameterizations can affect the results both in absolute and in relative terms and how these differences could be highly related to weather forcing in inputs or investigated soil. The analyses point out a decrease in average water content in the shallower part of the soil with different extents according to climate zone, concentration scenario and soil/cover features.Moreover, the projected increase in temperature and then in evapotranspirative demand do not ever result in higher actual evapotranspiration values, due to the concurrent variations in precipitation patterns.展开更多

After the tests,microscopic analysis of the specimens was applied,and their failure mechanism was discussed.The main failure modes of the UBFC are delamination and fibers breakage under the above loading conditions while the main failure mode of the WBFC is fibers breakage.Although delamination damage can be found in the WBFC under the above loading conditions,the degree of delamination is far less than that of the UBFC.展开更多

The hypervelocity impact cratering behaviors indicate that the cratering deformation of AZ31 B Mg alloy is mainly affected by the inertia and strength of the target material. The crater prediction equation of AZ31 B Mg alloy target under impact velocity of 5 km s^(-1) is given. The 2017 Al projectile completely melts in the Mg alloy target plate at the impact velocities of 3.8 km s^(-1) and 4.4 km s^(-1), and the microstructural evolution around the crater is: dynamic recrystallization zone, high-density twinning zone, low-density twinning zone, and Mg alloy matrix. It is found that the dynamic recrystallization, twinning and cracking are the main deformation behaviors for the AZ31 B Mg alloy to absorb the shock wave energy and release the stress generated by the hypervelocity impact. The main plastic deformation mechanisms of the Mg alloy target during hypervelocity impact are twinning and dislocation slip. Microstructure analysis shows the interactions of twins-twins, dislocations-dislocations, and twins-dislocations determine the strain hardening during the hypervelocity impact process, which eventually contributes the dynamic mechanical properties. The evolution of microhardness around the crater further demonstrates the microstructural evolutions and their interactions under the hypervelocity impacts.展开更多

The influence of fracture criterion in numerical simulations of the deformation and fracture behavior of Taylor rod has been studied. The following fracture criterions, included a modified version of Johnson-Cook, the Cockcroft-Latham(C-L), the constant fracture strain, the maximum shear stress and the maximum principle stress fracture models, have been used in this paper. Model constants for each criterion are calibrated from material tests. The modified version of Johnson-Cook fracture criterion with the stress triaxiality cut-off idea used can give good prediction to the Taylor impact fracture behavior. However, the C-L fracture criterion with only a constant required for calibrating by a simple test is found to give reasonable predictions. Unfortunately, the other three criteria are not able to repeat the experimentally obtained fracture behavior. The result indicates that the stress triaxiality cut-off idea is necessary to predict the Taylor impact fracture.展开更多
Ballistic impact response of resistance-spot-welded(RSW)double-layered(2×1.6 mm)plates(190 mm×150 mm)for Q&P980 steel impacted by a round-nosed steel bullet(12 mm diameter and 30 mm length)was investigat...Ballistic impact response of resistance-spot-welded(RSW)double-layered(2×1.6 mm)plates(190 mm×150 mm)for Q&P980 steel impacted by a round-nosed steel bullet(12 mm diameter and 30 mm length)was investigated by using gas gun and high-speed camera system.The RSW specimens were spot welded using a 6 mm diameter electrode face producing a 7.2 mm diameter fusion zone of the spot weld.The ballistic curve and energy balance for the tests of the spot weld of the RSW specimens at different velocity were analyzed to characterize the ballistic behavior of the RSW specimens under bullet impact.The fracture mechanisms of the RSW specimens under bullet impact were presented.For the tests below the ballistic limit,the cracks initiated from the notch-tip and propagated along the faying surface or obliquely through the thickness depending on the impact velocity.For the tests above the ballistic limit,the plug fracture in the front plate of the RSW specimen could be caused by the thinning-induced necking in the BM near the HAZ,while the plug fracture in the rear plate of the RSW specimens may be consist of the circumferential cracking from the rear surface and the bending fracture of the hinged part of material.The effects of the electrode indentation and the weld interfaces on deformation and fracture of the RSW specimens under bullet impact were revealed.For the tests above the ballistic limit,the circumferential fracture from the rear surface of the RSW specimens was always initiated along the interior periphery of the electrode indentation and the crack paths were along the FZ/CGHAZ or CGHAZ/FGHAZ interface.When the circumferential crack also formed outside the electrode indentation,the fracture on the BM/HAZ interface could be found.On the front plate of the RSW specimens,the shear/bending induced cracking from the notch-tip were observed and the crack paths were along the FZ/CGHAZ or CGHAZ/FGHAZ interface.展开更多

文摘The aim of this work is to investigate the soil water budget across China by means of hydrological modeling under current and future climate conditions and to evaluate the sensitivity to soil parameters. For this purpose, observed precipitation and temperature data(1981-2010) and climate simulations(2021-2050, 2071-2100) at high resolution(about 14 km) on a large part of China are used as weather forcing. The simulated weather forcing has been bias corrected by means of the distribution derived quantile mapping method to eliminate the effects of systematic biases in current climate modeling on water cycle components. As hydrological models, two 1D models are tested: TERRA-ML and HELP. Concerning soil properties, two datasets, provided respectively by Food and Agriculture Organization and U.S. Department of Agriculture, are separately tested. The combination of two hydrological models, two soil parameter datasets and three weather forcing inputs(observations, raw and bias corrected climate simulations) results in ?ve different simulation chains.The study highlights how the choice of some approaches or soil parameterizations can affect the results both in absolute and in relative terms and how these differences could be highly related to weather forcing in inputs or investigated soil. The analyses point out a decrease in average water content in the shallower part of the soil with different extents according to climate zone, concentration scenario and soil/cover features.Moreover, the projected increase in temperature and then in evapotranspirative demand do not ever result in higher actual evapotranspiration values, due to the concurrent variations in precipitation patterns.

文摘The woven basalt fiber composites(WBFC) and the unidirectional [0°/90°/45°/-45°]s basalt fiber composites(UBFC) were prepared by hot-pressing.Three-point bending test,low velocity impact test,and ballistic test were performed to the prepared composites.After the tests,the specimens were recovered and analyzed for micromorphology.Three-point bending tests show that both the bending strength and stiffness of the WBFC surpass those of the UBFC.Low velocity impact test results show that the low velocity impact resistance to hemispherical impactor of the UBFC is higher than that of the WBFC,but the low velocity impact resistance to sharp impactor of the UBFC is lower than that of the WBFC.For the ballistic test,it can be found that the ballistic property of the UBFC is higher than that of the WBFC. After the tests,microscopic analysis of the specimens was applied,and their failure mechanism was discussed.The main failure modes of the UBFC are delamination and fibers breakage under the above loading conditions while the main failure mode of the WBFC is fibers breakage.Although delamination damage can be found in the WBFC under the above loading conditions,the degree of delamination is far less than that of the UBFC.

文摘We have for the first time elucidated the microstructural evolution and deformation behaviors of a gradient textured AZ31 B Mg alloy plate under the ultrahigh strain rate of ~10~6 s^(-1) that is generated by a two-stage light gas gun with the hypervelocities of 1.6-4.4 km s^(-1). The hypervelocity impact cratering behaviors indicate that the cratering deformation of AZ31 B Mg alloy is mainly affected by the inertia and strength of the target material. The crater prediction equation of AZ31 B Mg alloy target under impact velocity of 5 km s^(-1) is given. The 2017 Al projectile completely melts in the Mg alloy target plate at the impact velocities of 3.8 km s^(-1) and 4.4 km s^(-1), and the microstructural evolution around the crater is: dynamic recrystallization zone, high-density twinning zone, low-density twinning zone, and Mg alloy matrix. It is found that the dynamic recrystallization, twinning and cracking are the main deformation behaviors for the AZ31 B Mg alloy to absorb the shock wave energy and release the stress generated by the hypervelocity impact. The main plastic deformation mechanisms of the Mg alloy target during hypervelocity impact are twinning and dislocation slip. Microstructure analysis shows the interactions of twins-twins, dislocations-dislocations, and twins-dislocations determine the strain hardening during the hypervelocity impact process, which eventually contributes the dynamic mechanical properties. The evolution of microhardness around the crater further demonstrates the microstructural evolutions and their interactions under the hypervelocity impacts.

文摘Block piezoelectric ceramics(PZTs)are often used in impact igniters to provide activation energy for electric initiators.Under the action of strong impact stress,PZTs release electric energy accompanied by crack initiation,propagation and crushing.At present,the electrical output performance of PZTs in projectile is usually calculated by quasi-static piezoelectric equation without considering the dynamic effect caused by strong impact and the influence of crack propagation on material properties.So the ignition parameters are always not accurately predicted.To tackle this,a PZT dynamic damage constitutive model considering crack propagation is established based on the dynamic impact test and the crack propagation theory of brittle materials.The model is then embedded into the ABAQUS subroutine and used to simulate the electromechanical response of the impact igniter during the impact of a small caliber projectile on the target.Meanwhile,the experiments of projectile with impact igniter impact on the target are carried out.The comparison between experimental and numerical simulation results show that the established dynamic damage model can effectively predict the dynamic electromechanical response of PZTs in the missile service environment.

文摘Taylor impact test on aluminum alloy 7A04-T6 presented in a previous study has been numerically evaluated using the finite element code ABAQUS/Explicit in this paper. The influence of fracture criterion in numerical simulations of the deformation and fracture behavior of Taylor rod has been studied. The following fracture criterions, included a modified version of Johnson-Cook, the Cockcroft-Latham(C-L), the constant fracture strain, the maximum shear stress and the maximum principle stress fracture models, have been used in this paper. Model constants for each criterion are calibrated from material tests. The modified version of Johnson-Cook fracture criterion with the stress triaxiality cut-off idea used can give good prediction to the Taylor impact fracture behavior. However, the C-L fracture criterion with only a constant required for calibrating by a simple test is found to give reasonable predictions. Unfortunately, the other three criteria are not able to repeat the experimentally obtained fracture behavior. The result indicates that the stress triaxiality cut-off idea is necessary to predict the Taylor impact fracture.

文摘Ballistic impact response of resistance-spot-welded(RSW)double-layered(2×1.6 mm)plates(190 mm×150 mm)for Q&P980 steel impacted by a round-nosed steel bullet(12 mm diameter and 30 mm length)was investigated by using gas gun and high-speed camera system.The RSW specimens were spot welded using a 6 mm diameter electrode face producing a 7.2 mm diameter fusion zone of the spot weld.The ballistic curve and energy balance for the tests of the spot weld of the RSW specimens at different velocity were analyzed to characterize the ballistic behavior of the RSW specimens under bullet impact.The fracture mechanisms of the RSW specimens under bullet impact were presented.For the tests below the ballistic limit,the cracks initiated from the notch-tip and propagated along the faying surface or obliquely through the thickness depending on the impact velocity.For the tests above the ballistic limit,the plug fracture in the front plate of the RSW specimen could be caused by the thinning-induced necking in the BM near the HAZ,while the plug fracture in the rear plate of the RSW specimens may be consist of the circumferential cracking from the rear surface and the bending fracture of the hinged part of material.The effects of the electrode indentation and the weld interfaces on deformation and fracture of the RSW specimens under bullet impact were revealed.For the tests above the ballistic limit,the circumferential fracture from the rear surface of the RSW specimens was always initiated along the interior periphery of the electrode indentation and the crack paths were along the FZ/CGHAZ or CGHAZ/FGHAZ interface.When the circumferential crack also formed outside the electrode indentation,the fracture on the BM/HAZ interface could be found.On the front plate of the RSW specimens,the shear/bending induced cracking from the notch-tip were observed and the crack paths were along the FZ/CGHAZ or CGHAZ/FGHAZ interface.

文摘Ground-based tests are important for studying hypervelocity impact(HVI)damage to spacecraft pressure vessels in the orbital debris environment.We analyzed the damage to composite overwrapped pressure vessels(COPVs)in the HVI tests and classified the damage into non-catastrophic damage and catastrophic damage.We proposed a numerical simulation method to further study non-catastrophic damage and revealed the characteristics and mechanisms of non-catastrophic damage affected by impact conditions and internal pressures.The fragments of the catastrophically damaged COPVs were collected after the tests.The crack distribution and propagation process of the catastrophic ruptures of the COPVs were analyzed.Our findings contribute to understanding the damage characteristics and mechanisms of COPVs by HVIs.
文摘The dynamic fracture behavior of a new near-beta Ti-5Al-5Mo-5V-3Cr-1Fe（Ti-5553）alloy under a high strain rate loading was investigated systemically using the Taylor impact test,over the impact velocity ranging from156 ms-1 to 256 ms-1.An optical microscope（OM）and a scanning electron microscope（SEM）were used to characterize the microstructure evolution.The experimental results have demonstrated that the velocity from deformation to fracture is 256 ms-1 for the alloy with anα＋βduplex microstructure including more primaryαphase,while the velocity is 234 ms-1 for the alloy with a duplex microstructure including less primaryα phase.From the impact fracture morphologies,smooth and smeared surfaces and ductile dimple areas can be observed.The failure mode of the titanium alloy with both microstructures is adiabatic shear banding.According to the fracture analysis,the ductile fracture area with the dimple area in the alloy with much more primaryαphase were more than that with less primaryαphase.Compared to the duplex microstructure with less primaryα phase,Ti-5553 alloy with more primaryαphase exhibited a better capability to resist an adiabatic shear damage.

文摘In challenging operational environments,Lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)inevitably experience mechanical stresses,including impacts and extrusion,which can lead to battery damage,failure,and even the occurrence of fire and explosion incidents.Consequently,it is imperative to investigate the safety performance of LIBs under mechanical loads.This study is grounded in a more realistic coupling scenario consisting of electrochemical cycling and low-velocity impact.We systematically and experimentally uncovered the mechanical,electrochemical,and thermal responses,damage behavior,and corresponding mechanisms under various conditions.Our study demonstrates that higher impact energy results in increased structural stiffness,maximum temperature,and maximum voltage drop.Furthermore,heightened impact energy significantly influences the electrical resistance parameters within the internal resistance.We also examined the effects of State of Charge(SOC)and C-rates.The methodology and experimental findings will offer insights for enhancing the safety design,conducting risk assessments,and enabling the cascading utilization of energy storage systems based on LIBs.

文摘When a human lands from a high drop,there is a high risk of serious injury to the lower limbs.On the other hand,cats can withstand jumps and falls from heights without being fatally wounded,largely due to their impact-resistant paw pads.The aim of the present study was to investigate the biomechanism of impact resistance in cat paw pads,propose an optimal hierarchical Voronoi structure inspired by the paw pads,and apply the structure to bionic cushioning shoes to reduce the impact force of landing for humans.The microstructure of cat paw pads was observed via tissue section staining,and a simulation model was reconstructed based on CT to verify and optimize the structural cushioning capacity.The distribution pattern,wall thickness of compartments,thickness ratio of epidermis and dermis,and number of compartments in the model were changed and simulated to achieve an optimal composed structure.A bionic sole was 3D-printed,and its performance was evaluated via compression test and a jumping-landing experiment.The results show that cat paw pads are a spherical cap structure,divided from the outside to the inside into the epidermis,dermis,and compartments,each with different cushioning capacities.A finite element simulation of different cushioning structures was conducted in a cylinder with a diameter of 20 mm and a height of 10 mm,featuring a three-layer structure.The optimal configuration of the three layers should have a uniform distribution with 0.3–0.5 mm wall thickness,a 1:1–2 thickness ratio of epidermis and dermis,and 100–150 compartments.A bionic sole with an optimized structure can reduce the peak impact force and delay the peak arrival time.Its energy absorption rate is about 4 times that of standard sole.When jumping 80,100,and 120 cm,the normalized ground reaction force is also reduced by 8.7%,12.6%and 15.1%compared with standard shoes.This study provides theoretical and technical support for effective protection against human lower limb landing injuries.

文摘An analytical solution for the responses of composite laminates under oblique low-velocity impacts is presented for a cross-ply,orthotropic,and rectangular plate under oblique low-velocity impacts.The plate is under simply-supported edge conditions,and the dynamic displacement field is expressed in a mixed form by in-plane double Fourier series and cubic polynomials through the thickness as 12 variables for each layer.A system of modified Lagrange equations is derived with all interface constraints.The Hertz and Cattaneo-Mindlin theories are used to solve for the normal and tangential contact forces during the impacts.By further discretizing in the time domain,the oblique impact problem is solved iteratively.While the numerical results clearly show the influence of impact velocity,stacking sequence,mechanical parameters,and geometric parameters,the proposed analytical approach could serve as a theoretical basis for the laminate analysis and design when it is under low-velocity impacts.

文摘Impact deformation behaviors of CT20 alloy with lamellar microstructure(LM),equiaxed microstructure(EM)and bimodal microstructure(BM)at room temperature were systematically investigated in this study.The experimental results indicated the excellent mechanical properties of CT20 alloy with BM un-der dynamic load.The impact toughness of BM specimen(∼118 J/cm^(2))is∼17.5%higher than that of LM specimen and∼33.8%higher than that of EM specimen.The impact energy of EM specimen is the lowest due to the relatively simple equiaxed microstructure.LM specimen can absorb the highest crack initia-tion energy due to the best twinning ability.The highest impact toughness of BM specimen is induced by multi-factor coupling during impact deformation.Finer initial equivalent grain size,smaller lamellar thickness,lamellar induces twinning,finer twins,crack propagation path,and interaction between twins andβlamellar are all factors affecting impact toughness.
