Experimental investigation and numerical simulation of the influence of the strain rate in laser forming are presented. To isolate and effectively study the strain rate effects, which are temperature dependent, a "constant peak temperature" method is developed with the aid of numerical modeling and solution. Under the condition of the constant peak temperature, the effects of strain rate on for...

The high strain rate behavior of two cellular materials was investigated using a quasi-static loading stage and a Kolsky bar apparatus. The yield stress of these core materials under dynamic loading was found higher than in quasi-static loading. However, the plateau stress after yielding is not so sensitive to strain rate. For Aluminum foam materials, the deformation was more localized for quas...

fiber reinforced composites are widely used instead of traditional materials in various technological applications. therefore, by considering the extensive applications of these materials, a proper knowledge of their impact behavior (from low- to high-velocity) as well as their static behavior is necessary. in order to study the effects of strain rates on the behavior of these materials, specia...
