Abstract:

The dynamic fracture behavior of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy was studied by finite element method to simulate a cracked three-point bending specimen loaded by stress wave loading. In order to determine the elastic-plastic dynamic fracture toughness using quasi-static fracture mechanics theory, the nominal load measured by Hopkinson pressure bar loaded fracture testing system was input into a finite element program to calculate the loading point displacement, and then this displacement was employed to obtain the load-displacement field in the vicinity of the crack tip without the inertia effect, the variation of J-integral as a function of time was established using the load-displacement parameters determined by finite element analysis. The critical J-integral corresponding to crack initiation time detected by a small strain gauge mounted on the three-point bending fracture specimen is determined as an elastic-plastic dynamic fracture toughness (JId). The comparison between the equivalent dynamic fracture toughness(KId) given by the aforementioned procedures and the value measured in previous studies was made to verify the validation of the proposed procedure.
