Abstract
The stresses developed in the material by impact load are analyzed experimentally, numerically, and analytically for specimens out of steel, aluminum, wood and woven graphite epoxy composites to investigate the material response to high strain rate stresses for aforementioned materials. The applied strain rates in experiments were set to be within 950 and 3500 s-1. The thin circular shape specimens were examined with high strain rate laboratory tests using the perforation split Hopkinson pressure bar (P-SHPB) with dimensional ratio accepted for One-dimensional stress analysis hypothesis. The article describes analytical solutions for one dimensional in detail to be implemented for numerical analyzing via trapezoid computation. The graphs of the four listed materials with two different thicknesses are compared for the specimen’s energy absorbed, specimen’s strain rate, stress strain rate relationship of the specimen, maximum energy absorbed, and maximum strain in specimen. It turned out that the dependency of deformation on energy absorption follows a power law for the woven composite and is approximated with linear relationships for aluminum and steel. Studying the effect of thickness in energy absorbed shows that doubling the thickness of the specimen reduces the strain of the specimen by 50 percentages for woven graphite epoxy and wood specimens, but the reduction is 25 percentages in the steel and aluminum specimens
