In order to simulate the rupture process of Cartridge Case, material failure constitutive model is researched. Johnson-Cook plasticity model is given as an analytical function of equivalent plastic strain, strain rate, stress triaxiality. Johnson-Cook plasticity model and Johnson-Cook Damage initiation criterion are used to describe the plastic deformation and fracture of case for the pressure of power gas. Using the implementation of this stress-displacement and characteristic length, problem of the relationship between fracture energy and the characteristic length in finite element model is solved. Finally, the simulated model which includes barrel, case, bolt and locking rigidity spring is built. Comparing the fracture shape and position in simulated test and physical experiment, the results are very similar. It proves that the rupture process of Cartridge Case can be simulated by the constitutive model which is introduced in this paper.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
