High-Strain-Rate Response of a Specially-Made Copper Sample

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the present study, a systematic study on both the high strain-rate tensile and compressive deformation behaviors of a specially-made copper sample have been carried out at different high temperatures, by using the split Hopkinson bar experiments. The Johnson-Cook constitutive model was used to model the high strain-rate responses of the specimen at high temperatures. The results showed that compared with other metallic materials, the specially-made copper sample had a relatively stronger strain-rate-hardening effect and weaker temperature-softening effect. Evolution of the microstructure suggests that under high strain-rate, both the dislocation slip and deformation twins contribute to the plastic strengthening of the copper specimen, resulting in the strain-rate-hardening effect. And the dynamic recrystallization behavior plays an important role during the high strain-rate deformation process at the high temperatures.
