Book A Study of the Mechanical Behavior of OFHC Copper in Tension at Various Strain Rates and Heating Rates Using the Two Dimensional Integrated Speckle Measuring System

Download or read book A Study of the Mechanical Behavior of OFHC Copper in Tension at Various Strain Rates and Heating Rates Using the Two Dimensional Integrated Speckle Measuring System written by and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective was to investigate the mechanical behavior of oxygen-free high-conductivity (OFHC) copper in tension. A modified dog bone specimen was heated using resistive heating techniques. The effects of high temperature, medium strain rates, and high heating rates on the stress-strain results were observed. A new two-dimensional (2-D) integrated speckle measuring system and a high-speed optical pyrometer were utilized for strain and temperature measurements. Room temperature tests were conducted at strain rates of quasi-static and 1/s. The high heating rate experiments were conducted at temperatures of 360 deg C and 375 deg C, heating rates of 30 degrees C/s and 263 degrees C/s, and at a strain rate of 1/s. A nominal decrease in the elastic modulus and an increase in the elastic limit are seen for increasing strain rate. Decreases in yield stress and flow stress were observed as the heating rate was increased.

Book Measurements of Dynamic Properties of Materials  Volume 5  OFHC Copper

Download or read book Measurements of Dynamic Properties of Materials Volume 5 OFHC Copper written by Douglas R. Christman and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Results of an experimental study on the dynamic properties of OFHC copper (1/2-hard) are presented. Areas studied included stress-strain-strain rate and reverse loading behavior, elastic constants, equation of state, compressive and release wave characteristics, and spall fracture. The material showed approximately elastic-perfectly plastic behavior under uniaxial stress compression with slight rate sensitivity (0.005 to 950/sec strain rates and 20, 204 and 370C). Longitudinal and shear wave velocities at 20C were 4.757 and 2. 247 mm/microsec, and temperature and pressure dependence was also measured and various elastic constants were calculated. The shock wave equation of state (EOS) was measured from 10 to 200 kbars as sigma-H = 1.5 + 344 u sub p + 143 u sub p to the 2nd power. The EOS was also calculated from the elastic constants and comparisons made with the shock wave EOS. Compressive wave tests showed a ramped, non-steady-state elastic precursor with very rapid decay (> 80% in 2 mm) . The yield level from compressive wave profile measurements was considerably lower than that determined from uniaxial stress and EOS tests. Shock wave profiles showing both release wave behavior and attenuation were obtained. The impact velocity required for spall fracture was found to increase with decreasing pulse width.

Book The Mechanical Properties of Copper at High Strain Rates  Volume I  the Effect of Strain Rate on the Flow Stress of Copper

Download or read book The Mechanical Properties of Copper at High Strain Rates Volume I the Effect of Strain Rate on the Flow Stress of Copper written by J. D. Lubahn and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental method of determining dynamic flow stress where the stress is homogeneous is developed using a pendulum bar suspension system. A small specimen is mounted on the end of one of the bars and the other bar is impacted on the free and of the specimen. For copper, the dynamic stress is 29% larger than the static stress for a strain rate of about 100/sec (or an increase in strain rate of about 5 orders of magnitude). For various tests, the increase in dynamic stress over the static value varied from 17% to 45%. This variation is comparable with the expected scatter for a typical test (plus or minus 10%) predicted from the uncertainties in measurement. (Author).

Book Strain Rate Effects on Ultimate Strain of Copper

Download or read book Strain Rate Effects on Ultimate Strain of Copper written by and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The strain-rate effect on strain to failure of copper was experimentally investigated. Both Oxygen Free High Conductivity (OFHC) copper and Electrolytic Tough Pitch (ETP) copper were studied. Ultimate strains were measured for a range of strain rates from 0.0001 strain/second to over 10000.0 strain/second. Normal quasi-static tensile machines were used at low strain rates, a split Hopkinson bar apparatus was used at strain rates of 1000.0 strain/second, and an exploding tube technique was developed for strain rates to over 10000.0 strain/second. High speed photographic techniques and post shot fragment analysis were used to determine the strain rate effects. Copper shows little strain rate dependence below 1000.0 strain/second with average ultimate strains around 0.4. Above approximately 5000.0 strain/second, several geometrical and material related factors cause the average ultimate strain to increase to values above 1.3, due to suppression of necking in the material until very late in the straining process. OFHC copper and ETP copper behave much the same to strain rates of 10000.0 strain/second.

Book Fabrication of Complex Optical Components

Download or read book Fabrication of Complex Optical Components written by Ekkard Brinksmeier and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-09-13 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High quality optical components for consumer products made of glass and plastic are mostly fabricated by replication. This highly developed production technology requires several consecutive, well-matched processing steps called a "process chain" covering all steps from mold design, advanced machining and coating of molds, up to the actual replication and final precision measurement of the quality of the optical components. Current market demands for leading edge optical applications require high precision and cost effective parts in large volumes. For meeting these demands it is necessary to develop high quality process chains and moreover, to crosslink all demands and interdependencies within these process chains. The Transregional Collaborative Research Center "Process chains for the replication of complex optical elements" at Bremen, Aachen and Stillwater worked extensively and thoroughly in this field from 2001 to 2012. This volume will present the latest scientific results for the complete process chain giving a profound insight into present-day high-tech production.

Book Emergent States in Photoinduced Charge Density Wave Transitions

Download or read book Emergent States in Photoinduced Charge Density Wave Transitions written by Alfred Zong and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-09-17 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book advances understanding of light-induced phase transitions and nonequilibrium orders that occur in a broken-symmetry system. Upon excitation with an intense laser pulse, materials can undergo a nonthermal transition through pathways different from those in equilibrium. The mechanism underlying these photoinduced phase transitions has long been researched, but many details in this ultrafast, non-adiabatic regime still remain to be clarified. The work in this book reveals new insights into this phenomena via investigation of photoinduced melting and recovery of charge density waves (CDWs). Using several time-resolved diffraction and spectroscopic techniques, the author shows that the light-induced melting of a CDW is characterized by dynamical slowing-down, while the restoration of the symmetry-breaking order features two distinct timescales: A fast recovery of the CDW amplitude is followed by a slower re-establishment of phase coherence, the latter of which is dictated by the presence of topological defects in the CDW. Furthermore, after the suppression of the original CDW by photoexcitation, a different, competing CDW transiently emerges, illustrating how a hidden order in equilibrium can be unleashed by a laser pulse. These insights into CDW systems may be carried over to other broken-symmetry states, such as superconductivity and magnetic ordering, bringing us one step closer towards manipulating phases of matter using a laser pulse.
