Numerical Simulation for Deformation of Polymer Samples Using the Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar Technique

Abstract:

Results of numerical simulation for deformation of polymer samples using the split Hopkinson pressure bar technique are presented. Computations have been carried out by the finite element method in axisymmetrical statement within the framework of the elastic-plastic medium model. The received numerical results are compared with experimental data. Good quantitative agreement between the numerical results and experimental data on the pulse amplitude was shown.
