Abstract

The quasi-static and dynamic compressive mechanical properties of a bullet composite are investigated using the scattered spot technique, an electronic universal testing machine, and a Split—Hopkinson pressure bar. The stress-strain curves under static and dynamic loading are also obtained, and the strain rate effect is analyzed. The rupture structure is observed under a scanning electron microscope, and the microscopic damage mechanism of the bullet composite is examined. Results show that the composite is sensitive to the strain rate, such that the compressive strength of the composite increases with increased strain rate. The relationship of the compressive strength and elastic modulus with the logarithmic strain rate is nonlinear.
