  1. Finite Element Analysis of Adiabatic Shear Bands in Impact and Penetration Problems

    … of this work is to ascertain when and where a shear band, defined as a narrow region of rapid, intense plastic deformation, forms in each material subject to impact loading. The Taylor impact simulations show that shear bands form earlier in WHA than in DU for the material parameters used. In …

  2. Numerical Simulation of Adiabatic Shear Bands and Crack Propagation in Thermoviscoplastic Materials

    … speeds. The formation and propagation of an adiabatic shear band (ASB) inplane strain tensile deformations is studied for eleven materials. The ASB is assumed to form when the maximum shear stress has been reduced to 80% of its peak value at a point and it is deforming plastically. The …

  3. The mechanics of shear-band formation in thermal viscoplastic materials at high rates of loading

    The mechanics of adiabatic shear bands are investigated through the study of a one-dimensional simple shearing model. The materials considered are assumed to exhibit strain rate hardening, thermal softening, and strain hardening or softening. The mechanism leading to shear band formation is assumed …

  4. Dynamic Shear Bands in Metals under High Strain Rates

    Adiabatic shear bands have been observed for a long time to occur under different conditions in many applications. Analysis of these localizations highly depends on the selection of the constitutive model. Hence, two constitutive models that take temperature and strain rate effect into account are …

  5. Analysis of Adiabatic Shear Banding in a Thick-Walled Steel Tube by the Finite Element Method

    The initiation and propagation of adiabatic shear bands is analyzed numerically for an impulsively loaded thick-walled steel tube. A circumferential V-notch located at the outer surface of the center of the tube provides a stress concentration. The material is modeled as strain hardening, …

    … particulates strongly influences when and where adiabatic shear bands (ASB) initiate and their paths. Furthermore, an ASB initiates sooner in the composite than in either one of its constituents. We have studied the initiation and propagation of a brittle crack in a precracked plate deformed in …

  8. Local Water Slamming of Nonlinear Elastic Sandwich Hulls, and Adiabatic Shear Banding in Simple Shearing Deformations of Thermoelastoviscoplastic Bodies

    We have developed a third-order shear and normal deformable plate/shell theory (TSNDT) incorporating all geometric nonlinearities and used it to analyze, by the finite element method (FEM), transient finite deformations of a sandwich beam with two face sheets and the core made of St. …
