The Dynamic Mechanical Properties Study of Aluminum Alloy Honeycomb Material and its Numerical Simulation

Abstract:

Light weight aluminum alloy honeycomb materials are ideal lightweight structure materials, which have higher specific strength and stiffness, and widely applied in aviation, aerospace, automobile and so on, and also it is an ideal material for damping, buffering, heat insulation and energy absorption. In this paper, the SHPB technique which the aluminum alloy bar diameter is 37mm is used for studying the dynamic mechanics property of the lightweight aluminum alloy honeycomb materials which the diameter is 30mm, and then to study the dynamic mechanical properties of the material, from the results we can see dynamic strain-stress curves can be divided into three phases, elastic phase, stress platform and compaction phase. And the numerical simulation method was used for study the dynamic deformation process of the honeycomb panel material under impact load, and also compare the results with the specimen cell figures which were observed by the microscope.
