Abstract

Mechanical properties of the materials used for nuclear power plants, transportations and industrial machinery under high strain rate loading conditions such as seismic loading are required to provide appropriate safety assessment to these mechanical structures. The split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) technique with a special experimental apparatus can be used to obtain the material behavior under high strain rate loading conditions. In this paper, dynamic deformation behaviors of the aluminum alloys (Al2024-T4, Al6061-T6 and Al7075-T6) under both high strain rate compressive and tensile loading and PMMA under high strain rate compressive loading are determined using the SHPB technique.
