Dynamic deformation behavior and ballistic performance of Ti–6Al–4V alloy containing fine α2 (Ti3Al) precipitates

The design of advanced performance high strength low-carbon martensitic armour steels

“…One should conclude then that high yield strengths, high tensile strengths, high elongations and high impact energies of the steels G2A* and G2B** did not play a decisive role in resisting high velocity impacts. This observation is in good agreement with the experimental results obtained lately by many researchers [2][3][4][5][6][7][8]13,14].…”

“…Hickey proposed another method to evaluate the ballistic performance by the mass efficiency, E m , which is the weight ratio against the rolled homogeneous armour (RHA) having identical ballistic properties as shown below [13]: [14] to establish a correlation between microstructure, ballistic performance and adiabatic shear banding behaviour [14]. They have shown that the V 50 can be improved by optimising the microstructure in the same material with the same thickness or aerial density.…”

Notice of Retraction: Cause of crack formation of magnesium alloy tube during electromagnetic forming

“…Deformation zone is composed of a large number of small grains. Modality of deformation zone of magnesium alloy tube is similar to adiabatic shear band of titanium and steel [10,11]. Important characteristic of adiabatic shear behavior is work hardening and work softening during metal deformation.…”

Dynamic response of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene under impact loading

“…Yazdani et al (2009);Qiang et al (2003); Lee et al (2005) conducted studies on the dynamic deformation of copper and titanium alloys and observed that the maximum stress did not change drastically with increasing strain rates. Siviour et al (2006) showed that the final strain achieved for polymers was directly related to the strain rate applied.…”
