Abstract
A procedure and results of studies on the strength of a 2-mm PA6 shock-resistant composite sheet in impact tension are briefly outlined. Experimental investigations include static and impact tensile tests of specimens with a short test portion and sharp symmetrical edge notches. Acoustic emission methods used in the tests of specimens in static tension revealed acoustic signals that point to the development of damages in the material under loads much lower than the ultimate one. Test procedures are similar to those used earlier for testing sheet metals in tension. The wave process in the specimens upon impact tension was analyzed using the viscoelastic model. The influence of viscosity on the width of the wave front, determining stress growth rates upon its propagation, was established. According to the test results, the change from quasistatic to impact tension slightly changes maximum stress levels. Impact tension of notched specimens in the first wave of loading lower than the ultimate one produces a decrease in stresses with time that can be determined by viscosity and damage effects near sharp notches.
