Effects of impressed-current on Sensitivity of Adiabatic Shear of TC6 Titanium Alloy

摘要

Dynamic compression test on TC6 titanium alloy samples have been done by using a split Hopkinson bar process and extra circuit under conditions of room temperature and high strain-rate. The effect of impressed-current on sensitivity of adiabatic shear of TC6 titanium alloy has been studied. It is shown that the impressed-current can reduce the sensitivity of adiabatic shear of TC6 titanium alloy under the condition of high strain-rate. Free electron in the samples will do direct move and take heat away from high localized area to decrease the effect of the heat. The result will help to delay formation of the adiabatic shear band. So, that is reducing the sensitivity of adiabatic shear of TC6 titanium alloy.
