A New Approach to Determine Dynamic Strength Model Parameters under Taylor Impact Test

Abstract:

In this paper, to determine the dynamic strength model for steels, a new approach which does not rely on the Hopkinson bar test has been proposed. As the DH36 steel for example, using the results of Taylor impact test and the quasi-static compression test, the initial parameters of Johnson-Cook plastic strength model have been fitted out, then the initial strength parameters have been optimized using the optimization techniques of the sparse Taylor impact cylinder. It has been shown that the optimized results in numerical simulation are consistent with results of Taylor impact test, and the optimized Johnson-Cook model can also well describe flow stress curve fitted from the Hopkinson bar test.
