Abstract: The material properties of OFHC copper film was investigated with the High-Speed Material Micro Testing Machine (HSMMTM) at the high strain rates. The rate-dependent stress-strain curves from the experiment and the Johnson−Cook curve fitting showed large discrepancies as the plastic strain increases since the constitutive model implies no rate-dependent strain hardening effect. A new constitutive model was proposed in consideration of rate-dependent strain hardening effect. The strain rate hardening term in the new constitutive model consists of the strain rate sensitivity coefficients of the yield strength and strain hardening.
Abstract: In this paper, a plane-strain orthotropic elasto-plastic
dynamic constitutive model is established, and with this constitutive
model, the thermal shock wave induced by intense pulsed X-ray
radiation in cylinder shell composite is simulated by the finite element
code, then the properties of thermal shock wave propagation are
discussed. The results show that the thermal shock wave exhibit
different shapes under the radiation of soft and hard X-ray, and while
the composite is radiated along different principal axes, great
differences exist in some aspects, such as attenuation of the peak stress
value, spallation and so on.
