Mechanical Characterization of Multi Phase Steel at Different Rates of Loading

Article Preview

Abstract:

The purpose of the present paper is to investigate the mechanical properties of multi phase 800 high yield strength (MP800HY) steel under compressive loading at different strain rates (-4700s-1 to-0.001s-1). Specimens of MP800HY steel are tested on universal testing machine to study their stress-strain behavior under quasi-static (-0.001s-1) condition. Then, the specimens are tested under split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) to study the strain rate sensitivity of the material under different rates of compressive loading (-4700s-1, -4300 1/s, -3800 1/s, -2900s-1 and-1600s-1). The effect of pulse shaper in SHPB experiments has been studied. Thereafter, the applicability of the existing Johnson-Cook material model to represent the flow stress of MP800HY is examined.
